A Story of Witch Craft
October 30, 2007
Submitted by Loretta Villalobos Salinas
Hi you may have remembered me from the last story I sent. As I said in my last story many things have happened to me and my family and some times still occur. The story I’m about to tell you also happened a long time ago. It was a story my mom told me about when she was a child.
Again, as I also mentioned in my last story, my family had a history of “brujeria” meaning witch craft. Now this isn’t a real long story but it is true, you see my mom’s grandma on her mother’s side used to practice witch craft and one day she told my mom and her sisters to move out of the way because satan was going to pass by.
My mom was young and innocent at the time and didn’t know what her grandma meant by ’satan’. Moments later a white dog passes through the living room in front of them and goes into her room never to come out again.
My moms family at the time was poor and didn’t even have a dog but what my mom remembered for sure was that dog was white as snow and never came out of that room. That just goes to show that evil comes into different forms.
My mom also remembers a time she was going through her grandmas dresser and saw a doll. She wanted very much to play with it and her grandma told her no that’s not to play with. My mother cried till her grandma finally gave in. She said in Spanish here play with it then!
As my mother played with the doll she told it stay here ill be right back. The doll being made out of cotton and cloth then said mama and moved. My mom looked at her and threw her! She looked up and then saw her grandma with an evil looking grin starring at her as if to say that’s what you get for getting into things that aren’t yours!
My mom later found out that the doll was really a voodoo doll. Her grandma later died an ugly death and it just goes to show that when you practice witch craft it pays back seven fold, not that I’d wish that on anyone.

Got something to say?
I Beg To Differ!!
that is realy weird but we sort of believe it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Witchcraft and Voodoo are not the same thing. A true witch does not wish to harm anyone and is not evil. In fact a witch doesn’t really believe in the devil.
Unfortunately, television shows and movies as well as propaganda put out by churches and religious organizations have affected the way we view a witch. As with nearly every other subject we learn the wrong things from movies. Remember, movies are meant for entertainment. The people who write and direct movies usually don’t know very much about the actual facts, they just want to make their movie/story interesting so people will watch.
it’s kinda weird..
i don’t think i believed in it..
i do belive some what of it but not every thing like voodoo hell ya and the ten fold yup
I dont care what “Caretaker” says, but witchcraft and Voodoo is both from SATAN, and it is evil. Whatever is not approved by God is evil and there is no way that you can convince anyone otherwise.
Hello Hayley. Thank you for posting your comment. I appreciate your opinion on this subject. I do not practice withcraft, nor do I advocate that anyone else does, but I do know that witchcraft, or Wicca, originally had nothing whatsoever to do with religion and they did not believe in, let alone worship, the devil or Satan
i really think the story of yours is utterly true because ive studdied it before in its amazing keep going
In responce to Hayley Morris:
Not caring or taking into consideration the beliefs of others is what started wars, murders, mindless(or controlled) actions throughout the world. It still goes on today due to intolerance. Be aware of your surroundings, however, do not destroy it because you simply do not agree.
As Voltaire once said,” I may disagree with what you have to say, but I will defend to the very death your right to say it.”
Ignorance is not bliss.
I spent 2 years writing a book about a scottish witch trial in the village of pittenweem, “the weem witch” came out in march 2006, I own the tower where these people were tortured as witches, much blood and death the walls in these rooms have witnessed , and the despair in these rooms can be felt by all.
voices have been heard (a fight between a man and a women) objects have been violently moved, and witnesses in their dozens now have seen a robed figure like a bishop in the tower.
satan is a christian concept, as are Witches, these people were murdered by religion, nothing more.
let your imagination run away with religion and beliefs, its your right, but what stalks my tower is real.
innocent people murdered by religion have no rest.
well, hey, witch craft is true. I might not believe in it, but it is true, but be careful with that voodoo and witch craft stuff it can lead to death - and I mean death
Hey can voodoo lead to death?
Hey Erika,
You just contradicted your first message?
Yo dude, i completely feel you! I may be a hippy but I know where your coming from!
A similar story was told me when i was a mini being. peace man!
Wow, so this is true speaking of which this is cool
Hi. I just wanted to let everyone know the feelings of a Wicca about this. I have practiced the craft for two years now and it is in no way evil. Wicca is an earth based religion. We worship both a male and a female and the male is in no way the devil. We do not even have a supreme evil. Against most people’s beliefs we are not in anyway a new religion. Wicca is just what the first religion now goes by. Oh and by the way we have a law of THREE fold. Not Ten or seven. We do not do curses or hexes or anything that goes against a persons will such as love spells. I will go now. Blessed be.
just read the weem witch by leonard low, this book is amazing, it cant all be true is it?
Ew. That story gave me the shivers. :S
the reason I became so obsessed with the pittenweem witch trials is because I couldnt believe what I was reading, yes the whole tale is true.
the weem witch has been out now 2 years and still doing well in the shops,my next mission is to convince time team to find my missing two witches, they are buried somewhere to the west of Pittenweem in a shallow grave.Any one interested can contact me lennyweemwitch@hotmail.co.uk
well….
can anyone of u tell me what demons,angel,witches n LUCIFER are exactly??
Angels demons etc were made up to scare the ignorant, fear kept people in their places, thats the retric with religion, it scares you into parting with your money.
To Leanard, I’d just like you to read my story in the ouija board section, entitled, ‘Get Satan Off My Back’.
I am an honest person and i can tell you that whatever was in my room that evening was evil and WAS there.
I wish people would not answer questions people have about demons etc with the ‘ultimate knowing of the truth’ kind of attitude. Leanard says there are no demons, so how do you know this to be an ultimate fact?
Also, you sent in a recommendation about your book by yourself!
Anyway, no hard feelings, just get annoyed when people state their beliefs as facts.
To Leanard,
Just told myself off for being a little harsh.
Let me just say that i had never believed in God or satan or such until i had my experience and i was completely taken by surprise, i can tell you that as an absolute fact. I have no choice but to believe what happened to me and have to remember how i poo pooed stories of this nature before i had my proof. I can honestly say that it drives me round the bend now when i try and convince people that what happened to me was reall.
I still find it funny though that you sent in a comment about your book from yourself…LOL. Hey, i would have probably done the same to encourage people to read it, if i had written a book. I’m curious now and would like to know where i can buy it from - well done Leanard, it worked!!
Hi Jackie,
I have a tower in Pittenweem in Fife, the same tower that was used for the torture and persecution of the 26 Witches I wrote about in the Weem witch.
I did lectures there for three years promoting the book, then things went weird! n one tour!
Halfway through a tour in 2006 we moved from one floor to the other, one american woman commented on no one helping the old man up the stairs?
there was no old man on my tour, a check followed and again no old man!
I was shown photos taken during the tour and sure enough ther was the old man, but only his top half!
He has been seen and heard now by many, I have stunning photographs, many mediums and newspapers have now been involved over 3 years now,
Jackie? I have been directly involved in much ghostly activity, I have a gift for this, but let me tell you deamons are all in the mind, while polterguist activity is now a science, In the weem witch a young lad plays that deamons are tormenting him, it was enough to convince the athorities to torture several on the basis they were Witches, it resulted in two deaths and much misery to others, the young boy admitted he acted the whole thing for malice.
theres your deamon.
I dont for one moment dis believe your bedroom tale, would like to know more…
Hi Leonard,
I know some people lie about these things and then this casts doubt on others who are being truthful. The boy who apparently lied caused alot of harm, if he did lie, but in those days torture could have easily made him say it was a lie.
You just don’t know anything for ‘certain’ no-one does. I don’t know for sure if what attacked me was a demon or poltergeist or whatever, all i know is it happened. The only thing that made it go away was a prayer.
I have read almost everything i can get my hands on the subject since and researched with people who have had similar experiences. NO-ONE has ever been able to say for an absolute FACT what is the truth. That is what prompted me to comment on your story.
I do believe one thing to be definite and that is my prayer protected me from further harm. That is the only true fact in my case. I just believe that if felt pure evil and that to me amounts to a demon. There is no absolute proof of poltergeist activity even though this is investigated regularly.
‘There’s my demon,’ seems a bit of a provocative phrase, but i’ll let it go.
Jackie,
please read the Enfield poltergeist, as a case where it was filmed, photographed and even witnessed by the police, Im involved with a poltergeist case just now, following it for the last 3 years in pittenweem Scotland.
As for your prayer! if it gave you some comfort then no one can say otherwise, religion was invented to keep the peasant people in order with fear, nothing else, how many hundred religions do we have today each one has the same message, support this religion or suffer etc, its all forced upon us with threats of burning in hell etc, and only the weak minded follow.
Leonard, all i know for certain is this, the comments you make are meant to be provocative, but unfortunately they come without any kind of reasoning. To me and others who have read your comments, that is weak minded and shallow because to you, only your theories are the truth - hey! didn’t know someone had found the meaning of life already - well done!
To turn the subject to reason - I have heard of the Enfield poltergeist and i did belong to the ‘Society of Psycical research’ (although cannot remember whether that is the exact name now as it was over ten years ago) for a while.
I do respect people’s stories and even yours, but what i don’t understand is how you can believe in ‘ghosts’ and not believe in some higher power. Where do you think we all came from - Mars? If there is an afterlife ( i have successfully astrally travelled, (which HAS been proved scientifically under laboratory conditions) so i know there is a soul involved here) then where do you think we all originated from? Oh no, not the big bang theory? Look around you and at the universe, everything is aligned just so, maybe it was an accident.
Unless you treat me with the respect i deserve after studying and researching in great depth, this fascinating subject, then please consider our communication at an end. I would however, like to talk to you further if condescending comments could be withdrawn from further interesting discussions.
My comments are provocative? Im weak minded for not believing in a higher being? no proof of poltergeist activity? and you joined the society for psycical research?
the society has masses of imformation and documented books on poltergeist activity, its their speciality, shame you never went to their meetings or actually learnt anything about them, just joined for the nice badge eh!
And Im condesending?
This is the second time in my life i have had the misfortune to come across a control freak.
Firsty, religion was not ‘invented’ to keep the peasant people in order. The fact that you said that was another transparent put down - you could be more subtle about it Leonard.
Ghosts and poltergeists you believe in - well some who don’t believe could say that you are weak minded to believe in such things - but they haven’t done because most people respect each other’s beliefs.
Going back to my story, If the prayer didn’t save me then what do you think did?
This thing was powerful and not about to leave me alone until i prayed for help, then at that INSTANT it felt as though it were being pulled from me. Bit of a coincidence don’t you think? that as soon as i pray it goes.
Forgot to mention, i am not at all religious in any way, but i do believe in God now. I don’t go to church and i think that almost all religions stink and has had everything to do with wars and troubles in our world. I totally agree with you on ONE thing that the witches were terribly persecuted in those days and i feel very sad about the way people were treated in those days. The place you live must be extremely hard to bear at times. If i wasn’t so p***** off at you i would have loved to have paid a visit and read your book.
I learned alot from the society, but no i didn’t get a badge, not right into badges.
Never even said once that i didn’t believe in poltergeists, you just seem to be going on one now. Communication with you ends here!
Im now a control freak! your not religious but you believe in god! do you actually read what you print?
dear o dear, very confused you seem to be!
have a nice lie down.
you need it!
I dont think your prayers scared of your deamon, You did! you scare me and we havent met!
You do not have to be religious to believe in God ‘know it all’.
it’s you who doesn’t look at what you’re writing, just check out your messages and why i and others who’ve emailed me have come to this decision about the way you are coming across.
Alot of Religions are organisations made up by people. Alot of people who run these organisations can’t possibly believe in God because of the acts that they commit. Therefore, you do not have to belong to any of these organisations or the whole host of churches that are around to believe in God. My belief in God is just that, i don’t belong to anything at all. So you are wrong in the other condescending comments you made above. You just can’t help yourself or even see that you are doing this.
Nobody has ever got my back up as much as you have.
Leonard,
i’m starting to think this is all childish, would you be prepared to call a truce. I’m sure we would actually get on if we would respect one another. What do you say, we start again?
Dear Jackie
Ive nothing but respect for you but which God do you believe in , the choice is huge from the Ancient Egyption Gods to the Viking ones, my personal fav is the God of Carlsberg I pray to him most Saturday nights and he enlightens my wallet and delivers great wisdom and blurred vision, sometimes I pray too hard and suffer his great wrath of crushing sore headaches next day, and severe loss of memory. His vengence is mighty on his disbelievers and lapsed heratics who prey to the god carling.
would you like to have your soul saved and join in my parish?
Hey leonard, I often get that same headache..blury - i think i believe in the god of vino blanco.
Jackie, check out this sundays Sunday Mirror,feature about me, Weem Witch, and Sean Connery! I have a photo in it too,
Voodoo and black magic can be evil when it comes into the hands of the evil. x
