Since William Penn presided over the state's only official witch
trial in 1684, witchcraft and folk magic have been a part of the
history of the Keystone State. English and German settlers brought
their beliefs in magic with them from the Old World--sometimes with
dangerous consequences. In 1802, an Allegheny County judge helped
an accused witch escape an angry mob. Susan Mummey was not so
fortunate. In 1934, she was shot and killed in her home by a young
Schuylkill County man who was convinced that she had cursed him. In
other regions of the state, views on folk magic were more complex.
While hex doctors were feared in the Pennsylvania German tradition,
powwowers were and are revered for their abilities to heal, lift
curses and find lost objects. Folklorist Thomas White traces the
history and lore of witchcraft and the occult that quietly live on
in Pennsylvania even today.
The Horn of Evenwood, Also called "The Master's Book of Conjury" or
"The Witchfather's Bloodless Bones," is a true book of Art, a
Grimoire of sorcerous operations, charms, and devices of Witchery.
Based on well-worn patterns and operations of Traditional sorcery
and European Witchcraft from the 16th-19th centuries, this manual
of magical arts provides a complete working system of Craft-sorcery
which taps into the numina of the British Isles folk-tradition, the
Luciferian mysteries of the Witchmaster, traditional wortcunning,
the Rades of Edric and Godda, and the hidden roads to
Faery-Elfhame. Included are incantations, conjurations,
instructions in the application of the Ten Pillars of Sorcery, "The
Service of Sigils" working, and the operations of "Biting the
Tongues of Serpents," "Summoning the Witch-Dream by Moth Flight,"
"Binding the Lovers One to the Other," "The Fruitful Working of the
Womb-Seed," and "A Pavis from Foul Imprecations," all of which are
intended to instruct an initiate in the use of this timeless arcane
system.
