Ancient Mysteries: Witches

From Shakespeare to fairy tales, witches have long held a special place in human culture and imagination -- most often for the mysterious powers they wield. This A&E presentation takes a long, hard look at the history of witches -- how our perception of them has changed over time and why societies have been so intent on identifying and punishing those in our midst.
