Description
There was time when anyone suspected of The indulging in witchcraft would be burnt at the stake. Such activities were considered not only anti-social but highly dangerous. Throughout the year though, even today, witches meet secretly on nights of the full moon and gather to celebrate certain high days known as sabbats. A typical sabbat will involve all members of a coven, ideally thirteen in number but generally between six and twenty. Sometimes these ceremonies are conducted in the nude, which means that they must be performed indoors or at some isolated site.
What, we wonder, do they hope to achieve in this way? Do their rituals echo those of medieval times? Are certain weird sexual practices involved, as one sometimes hears? And can they actually cast spells which will work and affect others for either good or evil?
Read about the horrific witch hunts of Salem and assess for yourself the alleged efficacy of curious magical practices.
