No witches were burnt in Britain, they were either hung to death or crushed under rocks. Approximately 4 to 10 witches were hung at one time most of the time, but I couldn't find any record of a largest number of witches executed at one time in Britain. There were 11 people both male and female hanged for witchcraft in the Lancashire witch trials of 1612 but this was a rare thing in most cases in Britain the accused were acquitted.

Did the most witch deaths take place in Europe?

Yes, the most witch deaths historically occurred in Europe, particularly during the late medieval and early modern periods, from the 15th to the 18th centuries. Countries like Germany, Scotland, and Switzerland experienced some of the highest numbers of executions due to witch hunts. The European witch craze led to tens of thousands of alleged witches being executed, often through burning or hanging. While witch hunts also occurred in other regions, such as colonial America, the scale and intensity were significantly greater in Europe.

How do you kill a witch in the 1300s?

Well, burning was the favored execution for an accused witch. However, I honestly don't know how they would have dealt with an actual witch because I really doubt that a witch wouldn't magic his or her way out of a life or death situation.Contrary to the popular belief, most people accused and found guilty of being witches were not burned but in fact were hung.
