The Witch-Cult in Western Europe: A Study in Anthropology

"The Witch-Cult in Western Europe" is a 1921 anthropological book by Margaret Murray. At the time of its publication, it gained attention due to the success of Frazer's "Golden Bough." However, Murray's theories were widely discredited. Her central hypothesis, known as the witch-cult hypothesis, suggests that the accusations made against "witches" in Europe were actually based on a real, though clandestine, pagan religion that worshiped a horned god.
