The title is the best clue here: it identifies the group as members of the Holy and Undivided Trinity at Castle Rising, Norfolk, England, and jokes that they are not a modern witches' council, a pointed nod to the Halloween theme. Castle Rising is a small village whose Norman church and 12th-century castle ruins stand near the coast, and Queen Isabella, wife of Edward II, spent much of her later life there. Photographs like this one from the 1920s often documented English parish life between the wars.
