"Cauldrons, broomsticks, spells, and black cats are some of the things that witches bring to mind. Yet, tales about witches are more than just spooky legends. Throughout history, people who looked or acted strangely have been accused of being witches and conjuring evil.

Among the 11 creepy witches' haunts in this book, children will discover a castle haunted by a woman suspected of being a witch, a cave lived in by an odd-looking woman who could predict the future, and a tower where people gather on Halloween to summon the devil"--Provided by publisher.
