Books like Witch Hunt by Syd Moore
Sadie Asquith, a researcher drawn to the dark legacy of the Essex witch hunts, discovers that her study of the era in which more than five hundred women were tried for witchcraft has awakened a chilling, supernatural connection. As she delves deeper, she is plagued by night‑time sobbing, sudden appearances of black moths, and the unsettling sense that she is being watched. The line between historical ghosts and contemporary menace blurs, raising questions about whether she is confronting real threats or her own unraveling psyche. Sadie's journey becomes one of seeking closure for the forgotten women while navigating the dangers that emerge from the past into her present life.
