How to Identify a Witch

Disclaimer This is NOT a page about Wiccans or neo-pagans, and I do not advocate the belief that Wiccans are Satan-worshippers and/or baby-killers. I am well aware that they are not. This is a starting point for historical research into the great witch craze of 1100-1700 AD. And please, don't ask me for spells.

There were almost as many ways to identify a witch as there were witch-hunters. No one person could pass every one of these tests. Nonetheless, the results of these tests were never ignored.

• Balance Scales
• Conversing With Familiars
• The Devil's Mark
• Ducking the Witch
