Inspiration, ancestry, and the untold stories of witches through history

In this deeply personal and atmospheric episode, Ben explores the origins of witchcraft across ancient civilizations, the chilling legacy of the Malleus Maleficarum, and the devastating truths behind the European and Salem witch hunts. At the heart of the journey lies a discovery close to home, a witch ancestor, Margaret Selby, whose legend still lingers in the mists of Northumberland.

This episode is inspired by the newly approved Witches of Scotland tartan, created to honour those persecuted under the Witchcraft Act of 1563 to 1736. It invites listeners to remember those who were silenced and to reclaim their stories.
