death of witch
---
Sadly, the death of a witch did not end the witch hunt. The witch hunt went on until all of the accused were dealt with, including those who were accused by people confessing under torture. The result was that hundreds of people could die in a single prosecution.
The reason for this was partly that people in a position to do so sometimes put bounties on the witches brought to justice, so people could enrich themselves by persecuting numbers of others in a really brutal fashion.
The thing that brought the whole movement to an end was clearly not because medieval superstitions were put aside; the witch hunts did not begin until more than 100 years after the Middle Ages ended. Nor was it a matter of the Age of Enlightenment coming; that began after the witch trials ended.
I think the end if witch hunts was more a matter of people getting sick and tired of the whole thing.
