Manage episode 299373347 series 2866000
Historian and creator of HistFest, Rebecca Rideal joins me to discuss a history of witches! From the Wicked Witch of the West to Sabrina the Teenage Witch, there's no denying that witches are ingrained in popular culture.
But what exactly is a witch? What types of people were accused of witchcraft? What were the consequences of such an accusation? We've all heard of the Salem witch trials, but were their similar trails on the UK and Europe? How did beliefs and attitudes towards witchcraft change over time? Why are witches such a prominent feature in pop culture?
