A Witch is someone who practices WitchCraft. Witches could follow any religion that accepts WitchCraft. (The word Wtch does not mean Female. A male could also practice Witchcaft, and be called as a Witch) Many Witches follow a pagan religion. There is a large number of Witches who follow Wicca as their religon; but this does Not mean that all Witches follow Wicca, or All Wiccans practice WitchCraft. WitchCraft itself is a religion. Wicca is a new religion which is very simillar to the ancient religion of Witches.

Not necessarily. There can be Witches who are not followers of Wicca. And one can follow and practice only the Wiccan rituals without using the Witchcraft. There are many Wiccans who Practice Witchcraft. It is like two intersecting sets in a Venn diagram. There are also Pagan Witches, Neo-Pagan Witches, Eclectic Witches, Satanic Witches and many more..
Witches have been around since man first became spiritual/religious. Modern day witches or pagans follow the same basic belief system that was first observed thousands of years ago. So witches have always been here (even before Christians, Jews, Hindus, Muslims, etc.).
No. Actual witches are people who follow the Wiccan faith. Their magical (magickal) powers have more to do with herbalism and intuition than with the magic powers described in fantasy and fiction.
They don't, because they're not. The witches you read and see films about are simply fiction. The only people who are witches are those that follow the neo-pagan religion of Wicca. However these people have no supernatural powers, it is a just name by which they refer to themselves. As with christians or muslims.
"The Witches" by Roald Dahl is written from a first-person narrative perspective. The story is narrated by the main character, a young boy, who recounts his encounters with witches and the terrifying adventures that unfold. This narrative style allows the readers to follow the story through the eyes and experiences of the protagonist.

There is a vast majourity of Witches who follow Wicca as their religion. Because Wicca ans Witchcraft have o many things in common since Wicca started from Witchcraft itself and developed as a religion. Apart from that there are so many religions Witches could follow. Voodoo is also a religion and people who follow Voodoo practices Witchcraft. In LaVey satanism, the second degree female rank is "Witch". They also practice a form of ceremonial Witchcraft.
It depends on whether the witch is religious or not. A christian witch will celebrate christian holidays obviously. But many witches follow the Wheel of the Year: -Samhain -Yule or Midwinter -Imbolc -Ostara -Beltane or May Day -Midsummer or Litha -Lammas or Lughnasadh -Mabon
