Achterflaptekst:

Discover the hidden depths of the sabbath.

Take flight for a mesmerizing exploration of an event long shrouded in fear and mystery—the Witches’ Sabbath. Kelden presents an in-depth examination of the Sabbath’s historical and folkloric development as well as its re-emergence within the modern practice of Witchcraft. From discussions on the folklore of flight and the events of nocturnal gatherings to enchanting rituals and recipes, you'll find everything you need to not only understand the nature of the legendary Sabbath, but also journey there yourself. Offering impressive research and compelling stories from across Europe and the early American colonies, this book is the ultimate resource for discovering an oft misunderstood and over looked aspect of Witchcraft.

Includes a foreword by Jason Mankey, author of The Horned God of the Witches. 

“This book provides a comprehensive, compact and accurate survey of beliefs surrounding the Witches’ Sabbath and a practical introduction to a modern tradition which enacts them.” - Professor Ronald Hutton, English historian at the University of Bristol.

“Carefully wading through the history of Witch flight, ecstasy, shape-shifting, familiar forms, flying ointments, and more, Kelden guides us on thrilling journeys over the hedge and through the Otherworld.” – Via Hedera, author of Folkloric American Witchcraft and the Multicultural Experience.

Kelden has been practicing Traditional Witchcraft for more than a decade. He is the author of The Crooked Path, and his writing has appeared in The Witch’s Altar, The New Aradia (Revelore Press, 2018), and This Witch magazine.
