Welcome to Harry Potter Theory. Today we’re discussing the rather dark topic of WITCH HUNTS diving deep in to how witch hunts and witch trials have shaped the course of the wizarding world’s (and our own) history.

While the world of Harry Potter may be filled with wonder and awe, it is not immune to the shadows that lurk in the human heart. Just like in our own MUGGLE history, the wizarding world has faced its fair share of witch hunts and unjust persecution, where fear and prejudice have cast a sinister veil over the lives of magical beings.

But before we get started on the fictional witch hunts that unfold within the pages of Harry Potter, I want to first take a look at the extensive history of witch hunts in our own world a phenomenon spanning multiple centuries that claimed the lives of a staggering 35000 to 50000 victims. Once we’re done covering the real atrocities that occurred, we’ll segue in to the Wizarding World’s version of witch hunts and see how they differ.
