    Missed the intro and ending music..
    Happy Halloween or Samhain (never would have known how to pronounce it from the spelling).
    When you speak of witches, you speak as if they were real. I always thought that accusations of witchcraft were drummed up charges based on fear, attempts to extinguish paganism, and over active puritanical imagination. In the US the usual viewpoint of the Salem Witch Trials is that it was mass hysteria-. I would love to hear you do a video on witches- real and imagined and the burning times.

      This is a great idea for a video. Thanks. Yes, mass hysteria and good old fashioned misogyny and fear of anything fringe played a huge part, both in the US and Europe. But witches, both male and female, were very much historical people too. Usually herbalists or cunning folk, and practitioners of ‘low magic’ like finding lost belongings and diving the future. A lot of these practises may have been based on pagan remnants, and could be termed a kind of European shamanism, but within a Christian context usually.
