General Comments
While we’ve made it possible for users to post comments on individual pages, we’d appreciate it if general comments were made here. If you make an inappropriate comment on an individual page, we’ll most likely move it here instead of approving it where you originally posted it.
Our idea of an inappropriate comment would be posting a general comment about the work as a whole on an individual chapter. We also frown on treatises about Christianity, Paganism, or any topic that’s largely unrelated to the post you’re commenting upon.
As for limitations of comments, we do moderate comments. We have no choice. We will approve most comments if they’re made in the right place, but we will not approve comments that are full of hate, profanity or are otherwise generally offensive.
Other than that, have at it. Thanks for your comments.

o.m.g, i haven’t stopped crying…i’m so lost for words.
i’m mad, upset, i want to scream.
how can humans do this to others, what i really think is, it was an excuse for dirty old church men to get there rocks off, if they tried it today, the law would call them serial killers. i’ve never been soooooooooo pissed off.
i would like to thank the people who have put it on the web though. it really needed to be put on the public forum, thank you again. i will pass the addy on to all witches i know.

witch hunter robin -> wiki -> this web site.
how did i end up here from watching anime in only about 4-5 clicks? oh well, it is kind of interesting though i never knew some old friar made a book like this. i have a hard time understanding the way its written, i really only read part two because it seemed the most interesting, but so far it sounds something like this:
its basically a guy saying that devils are having sex with wemon (mostly), and then some crazy things happen, and then people get lepresy and hailstorms happen, wow what a good read, i wish the guy that wrote this was still alive so i could slap him silly.
also, an interesting note, wiki says this book has 36 editions in total… wow.

I really appreciate your efforts in putting this very important historical work online. The cruelty and extermination done to women under the auspices of religion rivals the holocaust of WWII. Only this was done over such a period of time that its effects permeated every part of the “christian” world, and probably into those outside of that perameter.
I found your site using Google as I was researching Witch Hunters for my own edification (possibly as a basis for an historical novel)

I recently read the 120 Days of Sodom by the Marquis de Sade, which had some awful and horrific tortures described, especially in the last fourth month of libertinage.
It is no secret that de Sade wrote this in anger at both Church and aristocracy, but I just wonder if he got some of his ideas for the horrific torture and murder scenes at the back of the book from something like the Malleus - something which, by its association with the Church, would make the invective more damning to those traditionally in power. After all, Poe in The Pit and the Pendulum imagined a horrific from of death, which is not far from the same type of thing in 120 Days.
So, did de Sade get his ideas from Malleus or something similar from the same time?

Thank you for putting this on the internet. Other websites formatting are harder to read.
