Well to be honest i really don't knowI believe they put them under inquisition. But I guess they were not that hard on them since the Elizabethans were Protestants, not Catholics. There, hope I helped. -darkmatter1123

People still believe in witchcraft and witches. This has never gone away, but centuries ago people who had red hair were often seen as witches and people who were not part of a community but considered outsiders or odd were seen as witches. Witchcraft was often used to explain events in a community.
It is mainly because of the Catholic Church. They oppose witchcraft and witches, as they believe it to be "the work of Satan". Since the burning times, witchcraft is looked upon with the stereotype of something that is not right or taboo.
Witches tend to be women. In Shakespeare's time, I assume that women were witches since Hecate is a woman who is goddess of witchcraft. I don't believe there's any report of a man being accused of witchcraft and being killed for it.
Elizabethans are people that lived in the time of William Shakespeare and they believed in witches nthats why they didn't like William's play. they also killed a lot of woman as they accused them of bebinf witches
The powerless are prone to believe in the supernatural. If people around you believe something, you are more likely to believe it.
Wiccaphobia is the fear of witches and witchcraft.
All of them. Witches are practitioners of the religion of Witchcraft, and sometimes practitioners of Wicca as well as other traditions. If you're thinking of Hollywood witches, no one should believe in those. (Bewitched, Charmed, etc)
Witches are usually the ones performing witchcraft, not alot else really to say.
