The Pendle Witches offers a meticulously detailed account of one of England’s most infamous witchcraft cases. Drawing on historical records, court depositions, and contemporary reports, Peter Davies presents a factual narrative of the Pendle witch trials of 1612, revealing the lives, accusations, and fates of those accused.From the initial suspicions in the mist-shrouded villages of Lancashire to the confessions, the role of the Devil, and the punishments meted out, every aspect of the trials is examined with precision. Beyond the courtroom, the book explores the enduring cultural legacy of the Pendle witches-how folklore, literature, and local memory kept their story alive, shaping perceptions of witchcraft, morality, and fear for generations.This is not fiction; it is a comprehensive historical study for readers fascinated by true crime, legal history, folklore, and the supernatural. Step into the shadow of Pendle Hill and uncover the story of the witches whose names still echo through history.
