In US history, the Puritans of colonial Massachusetts believed in the supernatural powers of witches, and that they were demonically or Satanically inspired, and therefore contrary to Christianity. The witch trials of Salem, MA occurred in 1692 and 1693.

During King James I's time, people believed that witches had the power to communicate with evil spirits, cast harmful spells, cause harm to livestock and crops, and fly through the air. King James I wrote a book called "Daemonologie" in 1597, in which he detailed his beliefs about witchcraft and the powers he thought witches possessed.

The attitudes of people of Shakespeare's day toward witches were inconsistent. The fundamentalist Puritans believed very strongly in the existence and power of witches (hence what happened at Salem) but many people if not most did not believe in them at all, and considered them to be a bit of a joke. As a result, in plays like Thomas Middleton's The Witch, they are portrayed as silly and funny. Two songs from this play were incorporated into Shakespeare's play, showing that the witches were not shown as powerful or dangerous at all when the play was first performed.
Three supernatural powers attributed to witches were the ability to fly, the power to shape-shift into animals, and the practice of casting spells or curses on others.
From a Christian point of view they get their powers from satan.
supernatural ones.
