EDITORS COMMENTS
Pact with the Devil - The Sabbat's Demand from Newcomers (1626) This haunting image captures the moment of a pact being forged between a new initiate and the Devil during a Sabbat gathering. The Sabbat, an infamous association of witches believed to hold nocturnal meetings, was a central theme in early modern European folklore and witch-hunting narratives. The Devil, depicted as a grotesque figure with horns, cloven hooves, and a menacing grin, reaches out to claim the soul of the trembling newcomer. The newcomer, dressed in the traditional attire of a 17th-century witch, clutches a broomstick and appears both terrified and determined. The ominous backdrop of a moonlit forest adds to the eerie atmosphere, emphasizing the secrecy and danger associated with these clandestine gatherings. The year is 1626, a time when the fear of witchcraft was at its peak in Europe. The belief that witches made pacts with the Devil to gain supernatural powers was a common motif in witch-hunting literature and trials. This image serves as a stark reminder of the deep-rooted fear and mistrust that once gripped European society. As the Devil demands the newcomer's soul, one cannot help but wonder about the motivations and consequences of entering into such a pact. Was it a desperate act of survival, a thirst for power, or simply a matter of personal belief? Regardless, the image leaves a lasting impression, a testament to the enduring allure and fascination with the darker aspects of human history.
