There really wasn't a "movement" but a misunderstanding of people and use of superstition. Many people who were accused as witches were often special needs people, had psychological problems, were childless and alone, and just different. Red heads were often accused of witchcraft and sometimes people who wanted to eliminate a person accused them of witchcraft. This was a time when superstition was the science and real science was outlawed by the Church. When people don't understand events or people they turn to superstition as the answer and it is any easy way to explain things including witches.
