Exploring the evolution of witchcraft in American culture, this book delves into historical accounts of real witches persecuted in early New England and contrasts them with contemporary representations. It highlights the transformation of witches into figures like pagan priestesses, comic-strip heroines, and feminist icons, reflecting changing societal attitudes and the complex interplay between fear, fascination, and empowerment associated with witchcraft.
