The 17th-century witch craze began to decline in the late 1660s and continued into the early 18th century. Factors contributing to this decline included growing skepticism about witch trials, the influence of Enlightenment thinking, and an increasing recognition of the legal and moral injustices associated with witch hunts. By the early 18th century, many regions had formally abolished witch trials, marking the end of this widespread phenomenon.

Belief in witches in England began to take root in the late medieval period, particularly from the 15th century onward. The publication of the 1487 witch-hunting manual "Malleus Maleficarum" and the increasing influence of the Protestant Reformation contributed to the witch craze. By the 16th and 17th centuries, fears of witchcraft had escalated, leading to infamous witch trials, such as the Pendle witch trials in 1612 and the infamous Salem witch trials in America, which were influenced by English beliefs.

Most witch hunts in Europe occurred between the late 15th century and the early 18th century, peaking during the 16th and 17th centuries. This period was characterized by social, religious, and political upheaval, particularly during the Reformation and the Thirty Years' War. The witch hunts gradually declined by the late 17th century, as the Age of Enlightenment brought about more rational and scientific explanations for phenomena previously attributed to witchcraft. By the 18th century, witch hunts had largely ceased in most of Europe.
