Historian Mikki Brock joins WIRED to answer the internet’s bubbling cauldron of questions about witches, witchcraft, and witch hunting through the ages. Can men be witches or only women? Do witches really cast spells and create potions? Who came up with the concept of witches flying on brooms and why? Why do cartoon witches always have such a pointy nose? Why do we associate black cats with witches? Why did the Salem Witch trials start? Answers to these questions and an entire coven more await on Witchcraft Support.

    Brilliant video and completely agree with her opinion of the film The VVITCH. Such a great depiction of the psychological anxiety that many puritans must of felt when they believed they were the victims of witchcraft.

    Ser Drunken the Tall is most certainly an ASOIAF reference, a play on Ser Duncan the Tall.

    It’d be interesting to hear a historian talk about the way that this same phenomenon takes place even today in modern societies. I think it’s pretty easy to see the parallels in America right now.

  8. @MeredithHagan

    October 31, 2024 at 9:04 pm

    What drives me crazy are those shirts and buttons that say “They didn’t burn witches, they burned women,” mostly because people accused of witchcraft were mostly hanged or drowned or tortured/starved to death. Burning was for heretics.

    I remember reading that belladonna would spread on the broom. and then women would absorb the belladonna through our genitalia and the ensuing hallucinations would feel like flying on the broom. any truth to this or is it an old coven’s tale?

    Um, I’m not clear on her stance about witch trials: “but it wasn’t a panic”… very next question about Hansel and Gretel… “when it comes not just in witch hunts, but to moral panics in general”. Alright…well…I think you need to re-explain how the witch trials weren’t a hysteria or panic again or something, because it sounds like you said they are a panic right after that, and then went on to to compare it to other moral panics.

  17. @nero-e8n

    We all know that the cause of this is Anti-Semitism. I bet the ADL and Ben Shapiro would agree.

  18. @cccouzelis763

    October 31, 2024 at 9:14 pm

    I just wish she opened with the disclaimer that the thousands of people murdered during witch hunts were NOT WITCHES (in the US & Europe). They were ordinary people, mostly women (as she does mention – 85%ish females)… and 50% older women (>40 yrs old). In some villages, there were almost no women left. A truly chilling example of state-sanctioned deadly misogyny. I have to also say the way she discusses horrific torture practiced upon these ordinary citizens is disturbing to me. The witch hunts were an incredibly tragic & terrifying period of history that still very much shape our culture today. What would society be like now had such deep fear not been sewn into the experience of simply being female? The BBC podcast series called Witch is excellent for more thorough details.

    38:16 I mean when you bring in Bewitched, you go through a whole different lane of witch mythology. That show went to Japan and gave us the whole magical girl genre of anime/manga. Think about it, Sailor Moon even has a black cat familiar as a nod to the meta-influence.

    You said people in modern times people have tons of candles, tons of horses, and never need to worry about what they are going to eat. Even in these modern times, there is plenty of food insecurity. Yes, if you’ve never had to worry about it yourself it can be hard to remember. But still……

    November 1, 2024 at 8:46 pm

    The bible quote though didn’t actually say to murder witches. It said don’t let a witch “live among you”, meaning don’t let them be part of your town/tribe. In other words, drive them out of town. But of course religious zealots always have to go for an extreme interpretation.

    One thing I’m surprised she didn’t mention about the witch tests, an innocent would sink in the water, but they were attached to ropes so that they could be pulled out. It wasn’t “if they’re innocent, they drown,” like most people think.

    China’s Purge and Culture Revolution has a lot of similarities to these 164th century witch hunts. It’s actually all personal. Grievances between neighbors, workers hated their superiors, indentured farmers want to be in charge so they want the people in the way dead. Even today, If we have a system that empower people with bad faith or agendas, the same thing will happen. It’s human nature.

    Most importantly, the persecution mania was modern, not medieval as many imagine. It follows the spread of printing, a revolutionary information & communication technology abused by the real malefactors to “flood the zone with crap” and stoke paranoia, eroding people’s ability to differentiate between information and poison. Yup, some things never change.

    Correction to correction: Mary’s the first queen regnant (unless we count Matilda/Maud in opposition to Stephen), but there’d been plenty of queens holding the title as royal consort (i.e. spouse): Elizabeth & Mary’s dad even chopped a couple of their heads off; It could be a tough gig.

    In 30 minutes you could read about Early Ages, Middle Ages tortures, Salem, the Inquisition…. she doesn’t specify the churches and knights involved, the many forms of tortures, and obviously go the misandrist role bc Gen Z need to drink their juice of blended information, thats all they can get.

    History is dead

  63. @danielamckee5435

    November 2, 2024 at 7:35 pm

    Is the movie she is talking about called The Witch: Part 1 – The Subversion and Part 2 – The Other One?

  64. @your_toad_overlord

    November 2, 2024 at 7:37 pm

    When you talked about cats and broomsticks I felt inclined to add on that it had a lot to do with the plague, as women who used brooms to keep their houses clean and kept cats didn’t have mice in their houses so didn’t get the plague they were often blamed.

  65. @peridot1706

    November 2, 2024 at 7:53 pm

    Nonsense the almost totalitarian amont of people sent to death for witchcraft through history and still currently today have been and are men. A miniscule minority have been wemon. Across the globe wemon are only considered to even be witches in American and European folklore. The rest of the world only men were believed to be magic users ( witches)

    Speaking of the ubiquity of the “harm to children” scare tactic and the Satanic Panic… It was a little before my time, but there was a movie with Tom Hanks about D&D. Except it was about Tom’s character, a lanky teen, playing D&D and then becoming psychotic, believing the game was all real, until he almost jumps off a bridge in hysteria.

    Because nothing affords more control over people’s actions than convincing them “this thing I don’t like will kill or torture your kids unless you do what I say”.

  73. @geoffrenball742

    November 2, 2024 at 9:16 pm

    As far as women vs men being overly accused harming other with witchcraft; the fact that men back then tended to be less covert when they murder or harm others. Keep in mind most public executions have always been mostly men, especially back. While witches were accused of more hidden/secretive/covert murder/harm. Guys stereotypically went with bare hands or weapons .

    The witches that are being hunted and used as scapegoats in our current society is the LGBTQ+ community, and especially Trans women and Drag Queens. It’s like the script hasn’t changed after all these centuries: “What about the children?!” It’s the same old trope being used over and over again just to demonize marginalized communities and push the blame to the “other” so we don’t focus on putting the blame on the Elite and governments who are actually to blame for the horrors of the world.

    The witch-finder general would probably have a word or two to say about some of these responses.

  90. @peridot1706

    November 3, 2024 at 5:33 pm

    Men and women were both witches, “warlock” was not a widely used term. Its use was found briefly among some trials in Scotland. Also, the word meant oathbreaker… i.e., not a term for witch. It referred to breaking one’s covenant with the Christian god, which can be done in a variety of ways. A person could commit a non-witchcraft related violation and be called warlock.

    Modern/neopagan witches don’t use warlock and adhere to it meaning oathbreaker (sans the Christian reason). When someone is guilty of acting against a coven’s oaths, they’re ostracized and called a warlock. Sometimes you do find people who call themselves a warlock but that’s mostly those who wrongly think they’re reclaiming the word or want to seem edgy.

    Giles refused to enter plea because if he did his children would lose all rights to his property! If he was found guilty, which he almost certainly would have even if he plead not guilty, the church would take control of his assets and property, leaving his children with nothing.

    In England, women who practiced as midwives were often accused of witchcraft.
    Theres a really good book called The Familiars by Stacey Hall which is about a midwife during the Pendle Witch Trials.
    Stacey Hall bases all her stories on real people in history and includes facts about them at the end.

    6:57 how could they possibly believe god ‘wouldn’t’ let an innocent person die’ when there was such a high infant mortality rate? Like, what sort of ways did they come up with to justify that? Plenty of innocent people were dying all the time, did they just… assume those people actually had something wrong with them, or were all victims of actual ‘bad’ people?

    The beginning of the witch hunts in Europe also was the start of the Little Ice Age, with devastating crop failures and famine. Someone had to be to blame, and so it came to witches and their harmful wheather-spells. It was definitely better for the authorities than if they had been accused.

  131. @MrMonoyo

    November 6, 2024 at 12:39 pm

    About the Hats: During the years of the “infamous” Spanish Inquisition Jews that refused or rejected the Judeo-Christian Creed were intentionally forced to wear pointy hats on their heads as a part of their everyday attire so that other people would ‘know’ that they had rejected the ‘faith’. And they were also denoted publicly as “Maranos”, it literally means Pigs, a clear reference to Un-cleanliness or Un -Godliness.

  132. @mi3797

    November 6, 2024 at 1:36 pm

    Is it true that The Hammer of Witches actually had a false Papal Bull attached to it? Apparently Kramer was give one for something and used it with this instead, which would give it a lot of legitimacy.

  134. @ruialmeida818

    November 6, 2024 at 1:56 pm

    The salem witch trials are only front and center in the US. Ask anyone in Europe and they will place the inquisition as the center of it – Portugal and Spain pratically made an industry of burning people (yes, a lot of men were accused of witchcraft and heresy by the church). You should read the memorial of the convent by the nobel prize winner José Saramago, as he describes a burning quite accurately.

    Samuel Wardwell in Salem was hung only out of greed and prejudice (for marrying above his station) – all to steal his wife Sarah’s property. Hill I will die on! Fun fact: research suggests that Samuel helped build Hawthorne’s house of seven gables. Unfortunately, Hawthorne was not on Samuel’s trial, or it might have gone differently.

    20:00 another reason for the “witches cat” is during the many plagues in England, women who kept cats lived when the many in a village would die. The reason was that cats are good at eating rats that had the plague fleas. Clever christians quickly concluded it was obviously witchcraft.

    Us looking back on the belief of witchcraft as crazy, is how I believe future generations will look back on the belief of God/religion. People believed in witchcraft because they didn’t have an understanding of the world around them, and the same goes for why people believe in God. The more we understand the world around us with scientific explanation, the less people are likely to believe in God.

    The Salem witch trials spurred a lot of debate and people changed laws so that bad evidence couldn’t be admitted in court. Afterwards the residents were so ashamed they changed the name of the town. That’s why it’s so famous, it was a changing point to a more rational outlook.
