A compelling examination of witches and witchcraft in both folklore and history.

While most people are familiar with the classic image of a witch as a frightening figure riding through the night sky on a broomstick, true witchcraft is something very different.

Witches and Wiccans explores witches and witchcraft throughout the ages, in both folklore and history. It discusses what people have believed about witches in different time periods, witchcraft practices from different cultures around the world, and how societies have perceived witches. With this look at the modern Wicca practices, the principles of Wicca, and how they differ from the witches of legend, readers will gain a better understanding of what modern-day practitioners do to commune with unseen forces.

Chapters include:

  • The Inquisition's Reign of Terror
  • Anatomy of a Witch Trial and Execution
  • Witchcraft in Early America
  • Witchcraze in Salem
  • Wiccan Celebrations.
