Etimologie[modificare | modificare sursă]
termenul poate fi găsit în Europa începând ca. din anul 1000
provine din basme, povești asociat cu atribuții de canibalism, și puteri supranaturale
din biblie provine termenul de vrăjitorie și pepdepsirea celor ce o practică
acest termen a fost mai precis conturat în actele de condamnare a vrăjitorilor din evul mediu, care procese erau considerate ca o măsură de salvare a unui suflet păcătos.
