Magic, alchemy & hermetic thought; Witchcraft

Every sense is tingling. Strange symbols loom out of the darkness, and incantations whisper through the air. It's cold and quiet, so why don't you feel completely alone?

Welcome to The Museum of Witchcraft, a collection of 100 artefacts where a history of secret wisdom, female power and occult objects comes to life. Wander through its pages to discover why cooking is magic, which trees are most enchanted, how to create an amulet, where to find a witch mark and why bad weather could have you burned at the stake.

With each page a beautiful display cabinet containing esoteric illustration and authoritative text, it's time to discover the shadowy world of witches.
