In England, Scotland, and most of Ireland, the Witchcraft Act was repealed in 1951. It remained in place in the Republic of Northern Ireland until 1983, although it was never enacted.The Witchcraft Act was officially replaced by the Fraudulent Mediums Act 1951. This act prohibits any person from claiming to be a psychic, medium, or other spiritualist while attempting to deceive and make money. It excludes stage magic which is purely for entertainment purposes. In the USA Witchcraft is not illegal, but in Israel and Saudi Arabia laws are still in place, and punishments can be severe.
