In addition to being the Land of Enchantment, New Mexico was also once the Land of Bewitchment. Witches used to streak across the skies as fireballs, creep along the streets as black cats, and flutter into the trees in the form of owls. When they weren't casting the Evil Eye, they might be concocting a dish of worms disguised as goat's cheese or making a love potion for a client. And those were just the Spanish brujas. Elsewhere, Navajo skinwalkers stalked the deserts and prairies in wolfskins, and the ghosts of Apache witches possessed bears in the forests. From historical accounts like the Abiquiu witch trials and Luis De Rivera's deal with the Devil to familiar folktales like Panfilo and the Cat-Eyed Witches and the Witches in the Oldest House, this tome collects all of New Mexico's best known witch-tales and accounts.
