The answer to that is lost in the mists of time. Humankind has been practicing some form of witchcraft/mysticism/magic as long as we have been self aware.

As a species we are uncomfortable in believing we are unable to control and/or direct the things that happen around us. So magic in all its forms arose.

No. First of all, spells and mermaids are not real, so it doesn't really witchcraft. Witchcraft, at least the Western conception of it, is tied to the religion of Wicca. Most folklore relating to magic is not related to Wicca.
