Description:
Were Scottish witches handmaidens of the devil or was the imagined demonic presence merely the fevered obsession of the Kirk? Fed by stories of female sexual excess, did Kirk ministers see what was there or what they wanted to be there? Were wanton women running amok or was the Scottish Kirk running scared? Come and explore the reality behind the rhetoric.
