Darwoth told me all this in Private chat. He's very helpful in explaining all the secrets of witchcraft if you ask him.
I am not a witch so I am free to pass it on to you.
It takes about a minute for them to do their little dance next to you in town. It's about 10 hex squares in distance, so pretty close. If you move at all in any direction the dance stops. If you mouse click in any direction the dance stops. The Dance is basically them 'tuning' a doll to you which they can then use later to possible kill you or harm you in some way. They can only perform the curse with the doll if you are online. You will notice some of your biles or possible some of your other levels dropping while you are being cursed. There will not be a symbol for it. At that point you need to either log off or go and pay the priest at the church. This will stop the curse but the doll may still be tuned to you. I don't know if the doll is used up in the curse or if the priest breaks the doll's connection to you. The witch does take bile damage or other damage along with you as long as they are performing the curse. They will eat or maintain while they drain you. If your bile reaches 0 then you will die. They can perform the curse once per hour on you with the doll until you notice it or you are drained.

As the river rolled over the cliffs, my own laughing joy was drowned out by the roaring deluge of the water. The great cataract of Darwoth's Tears fell over and over endlessly.
