This question has never truly been answered. Many people believe the first organized modern practice of Wicca was started by Alyester Crowly.
But the ideals of Wicca and the traditions date back much further. They go back to some of the first civilizations. Celtics, Druids, Greeks, Native Americans, Norse, and Inca all have had the same common practices related to Wicca today.
Wicca is a diverse religion with no real 'right' or 'wrong'. So in many ways the person who follows the religion creates their entirely own practice. Many modern Wiccans do not even associate themselves with Alyester Crowly or even the first societies who shared the same traditions. It truly depends on the individual person as to the opinion on where Wicca originated.

Is there anyone who has information on what faeries would have to do with wicca religion My sister inlaw is into the whole wicca thing and always gives my daughter fairie stuff?
Well Wicca is a religion basically based on belief in a lot of mysterious deep things. I myself find that I am into faerie things and impossibilities. I believe it is just the way of being into things that other people don't really believe in. It may also have to do with the fact that faeries first came about in Celtic stories and Celtic people were very much into Wicca. Wicca is, a lot of the time, tied in with mystical creatures and such because Wicca is the "witch" religion.
