Witchcraft is used to refer, broadly to the practice of magic.Depending on the values of the community, witchcraft in this sense may be regarded with varying degrees of suspicion and hostility.

Wicca is a recent witch-craft religion that is found in many English-speaking countries. It was originally founded by the British civil servant Gerald Gardner in the 1940s.
