Witchlore
Throughout history there is been talk of witches and witchlore. Some of these are real, such as the practitioners of the religion Wicca, who call themselves witches. Other times it's clearly fiction, as in Harry Potter, and countless other books, television shows, and movies. Sometimes, for example the Salem Witch Trials, no one knows where to draw the line between fiction and reality. -
