Most writers believed witchcraft had hardly touched Ireland beyond the famous case of Dame Alice Kyteler in fourteenth-century Kilkenny. Seymour sets out to prove otherwise, gathering trials, ghost stories, haunted houses in Dublin, apparitions in the Tipperary sky, a clergyman and his wife said to be bewitched to death, and a butler possessed by fairies.
A fascinating historical gathering of Irish beliefs and cases, for readers of folklore and the history of witchcraft. Download the free EPUB.
