This 1970 British documentary, directed by Malcolm Leigh, investigates the origins of witchcraft in the UK from pre-Christian times, linking it to moon-worship, pagan gods and goddesses, and the absorption of ancient rites into Christianity. It features footage of modern Wiccan practices, including initiation into a coven, divination through animal sacrifice and scrying, the casting of death spells, and depictions of the Black Mass, narrated by Guy Standeven and showcasing Alex and Maxine Sanders, prominent figures in Alexandrian Wicca, while demystifying symbols in contemporary religious artifacts and rituals.
