    • Been thinking of getting this book.  How accurate is it exactly? I also heard that the Spanish Inquisition banned it for whatever reason, is that true?

    • Yes, I've owned Malleus Maleficarum for many years, it's a strong read.
    You will find it interesting and convincing. The theology pulls
    no punches. I recommend it. Another book on witchcraft
    I recommend is The History of Witchcraft by Montague Summers.

    here is a good essay about the Spanish Inquisition which
    goes contrary to what most have been taught.
