What is a Witch?
|
Hello! Here you will find out exactly what a witch is.
If you already know, skip down to the bottom of the page to go to the next one.
Witches are not women dressed in black hats and robes, holding magic wands that create dark magic - they were real people in the 1700s that were thought to be weird or strange. Most were identified by witch marks, which were strange shaped birthmarks said to be a mark of evil. If witch marks were found then they would be burned or hanged. None of the witches that were burned or hanged were real witches. They were just normal people accused because of who they were.
You never know though, maybe they WERE real witches!
(Just joking!)

What is a Warlock?
|
Unlike Witches, Warlocks are not that well known and so not many people know about them, but this page should tell you everything you need to know...
Warlocks are said to be males who feed on a Witch's power. As with many evil creatures, having sold the devil their soul, they speak with him and do his bidding. They were harder to spot than Witches because they did not have any identifying marks on their body that the authorities could use as an excuse to burn them. Most were arrested because they announced in public that they were a servant of the devil, sealing their fate....
No one is sure if Warlocks really did exist, as so little is known about them, but it is very unlikely that they were real. Like witches, they were probably slightly mad people who maybe just wanted some attention.
I hope you now have a good understanding of witches and warlocks. Click here to go to the next page: Witch Trials
