Darkness ...Sheer madness
There’s no truth in their saying!

“He must not be too quick to subject a witch to examination
but must pay attention to certain signs which will follow
and he must not be too quick for this reason
unless God, through a holy angel, compels the devil
to withhold the help from the witch,
she will be so insensible to the pains of torture that
she will sooner be torn limb from limb than confess any of the truth
But the torture is not to be neglected for this reason,
for they are not equally endowed with this power
and also the devil sometimes of his own will permit them
to confess their crimes without being compelled by a holy angel”

Malificarum’ translated means ‘The Witches Hammer’ This information was
published and used for 250 years to hunt, persecute and destroy the
ancient religion of witchcraft in Western Europe
