A Stuart Witch goes back to the Stuart times in England when witchcraft was considered a capitol offense. Witches that were prosecuted and found guilty from this time are sometimes called Stuart Witches.

What happened to witch hunts in the Stuart period?

During the Stuart period, particularly in the early 17th century, witch hunts intensified, fueled by social, political, and religious turmoil, including the English Civil War. The infamous witch trials, such as those in East Anglia, led to the execution of numerous accused witches. However, by the late 17th century, skepticism about witch hunts grew, culminating in a decline in such trials as Enlightenment thinking began to take hold. The 1736 Witchcraft Act effectively ended witch hunts in England by decriminalizing witchcraft and emphasizing evidence-based legal practices.
