The Ultimate Magician saw the best magicians from around the world compete for a whopping £50,000 prize in front of a live audience.

Mysterious character The Witch finished in third place on the programme, after rising to fame on BGT earlier this year.

However – with the identity of the spooky character still under wraps – fans quickly got guessing who was behind the make-up.

Some viewers were certain they had worked it out after noticing a “clue” that it could be a very famous face.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed that while host Stephen Mulhern interviewed all the other hopefuls, he skipped out on The Witch.

“Is The Witch Stephen Mulhern and that’s why there’s no interview?” one wrote, pointing out they were never on stage together.

The creepy crone has been dubbed the series’ scariest act ever after stalking the panel handing out apples  – one of which exploded in a shower of cockroaches and mealworms.

When it came to judge Amanda the witch held her wrist in one hand and a gnarled stick in the other, leaving her shaking.

Many have speculated the witch is magician and show co-host, Stephen, thanks to his magic skills.

Some have speculated actor Ian Bartholomew, who played abuser Geoff Metcalfe on the cobbles, could be behind the act.

Others have speculated that magician Marc Spellman is behind the ward-ridden character – despite also taking part in the show.

Earlier this year, Stephen dropped a huge hint that he is the freaky Witch from Britain’s Got Talent.

The magic-loving star brought up rumours that he is behind the creepy character, who mystified audiences again last night.

Stephen tweeted a picture of him sitting in make-up alongside the Witch, who is a performer caked in prosthetics.

He wrote: “Everyone keeps asking if I’m the Witch from @BGT! Well you might want to ask @lisaAmakeup what I look like before she put makeup on me!”

However one fan insisted: “The Witch is not you they’ve brown eyes yours are blue.”
