The dark truth about witches!


We delve into the full extent of the 'witch hunts' and 'witch trials' that shocked Europe from the Middle Ages to the modern era.
Who are witches and why witch hunts occurred? We introduce the full story of various incidents and examine them from various angles.
This book reveals the dark history surrounding witches through vivid illustrations and detailed commentary.

What exactly was the witch hunt?

Witch hunters in modern Europe and America tortured and executed thousands of people.
What could have caused this disaster?
It provides an accessible account of how the witch came to be, detailing how the ancient world's belief in magic became distorted and dangerous.
Introducing the people who created the legends of witchcraft as we know them today, such as the Knights Templar, Gunhild, Joan of Navarre, and Elizabeth Woodville, we take a clear look at the events of how those accused of being witches came to be feared and what kind of trial process they went through.


You will experience the horrors of the Dark Ages, when villages were plunged into mass hysteria due to merciless witch hunts and the madness of witch hunters swept across Europe. You will also learn the truth hidden in these harsh trials.
The footsteps of Matthew Hopkins, the infamous self-proclaimed "witch-hunting general" who made it his mission to punish anyone suspected of witchcraft, provide a more vivid picture of the situation at the time.
It also provides an easy-to-understand explanation of how the persecution of witches in Europe came to an end as views on crime and punishment changed.
This book will serve as an appropriate guide for anyone interested in the darkness of history.
