The Witch-cult in Western Europe: A study in anthropology

The Witch-Cult in Western Europe is an anthropological book by Margaret Murray as expert on western witchcraft, though her theories were widely discredited. Murray's theory, also known as the witch-cult hypothesis, suggests that the accusations made towards "witches" in Europe were in fact based on a real, though clandestine, pagan religion that worshiped a horned god.
