For people in the western world, witchcraft and sorcery are relegated to magical fairy tales, fictional forms of entertainment in movies like Harry Potter and The Lord of The Rings installments, and TV shows like Sabrina The Teenage Witch and Charmed.

But while for us they are an entertaining fiction, in many parts of the world, witchcraft is very much a current practice, with powerful effects on the communities in which it still flourishes. Whether or not the witches have the powers they are believed to, the power of witchcraft is still evident in the deeply held beliefs and dramatic practices with which it is associated throughout the world. It wasn’t so long ago that Western countries also believed in witchcraft.

We all know about the Salem witch trials in 1690’s Salem, Massachusetts. The period was marked with dozens of trials of women thought to have been practicing witchcraft, followed by numerous executions. Notoriously, the science and legal foundations of the trials were as shaky as the ducking stools prosecutors used to test for witches. This history is enough to make you indignant about the paranoia and religious extremism that caused so many innocent women to lose their lives.

What a relief that these customs are no longer tolerated! But elsewhere in the world, witch trials, witch camps, sorcery and other weird and wonderful occult rituals are still central to many cultures. From Africa’s witch doctors to voodoo in the West Indies and Romania’s witch tax on the sorcerers who are cashing in, let’s explore the weird world of witchcraft.

15 Places Around The World That Still Practice Witchcraft

Superstitions are no laughing matter in Romania, the land of the medieval ruler Vlad the Impaler, who inspired the tale of Dracula, and have been part of its culture for centuries. President Traian Basescu and his aides have been known to wear purple on certain days, supposedly to ward off evil. Until recently, the thriving witch business in Romania was untaxed by the Government, who were reticent to risk being hexed by the country’s witches.

The Communist dictator Nicolae Ceausescu who presided over Romania from the sixties until the eighties had his own personal witch. The most famous witch in Romania is Maria Câmpina, the self-proclaimed queen of the fortune tellers. Usually, of Roma origin, these women are said to be able to read a person’s future in his or her palm, in grains of wheat, or in the stars. The practices are handed down from generation to generation, and the majority of Romania’s population consult the witches at some stage in their lives. So Romania’s witches are rich. Previously, the less mainstream professions of witch, astrologer, and fortuneteller were not listed in the Romanian labor code, and people who worked in those jobs used their lack of registration to evade paying income tax. Under a law passed in 2011, (colloquially known as the “Romanian witch tax”), they now pay 16 percent income tax and make contributions to health and pension programs, like other self-employed people. Many witches celebrated their legal legitimacy, despite being subject to taxation.
