#-#Medieval Inquisition tried a large number of witches, but collective witch-hunting was a exclusive modern phenomena. Individual melleficium was not uncommon in lots of rural areas, but the scholastic demonology science didn't develop until the end of the 14th century, relating witchs and conspiracy gatherings that were supervised by Satan himself. This conspiracy paranoia can track its roots as far as the first Jew and Leper massacre of the High Middle Ages, when thousands were slaughtered by crusaders. But it's on the early 15th century when demonological thories become fully accepted by the upper classes. The two Councils of Constanze and Basel are the birth of the first work that directly connects malleficium and demonology. The work of Johannes Nider, the Formicarius, is a masterpiece of scholastic demonology and marks a new era in the witch-hunting period. The work of Heinrich Kramer, the Malleus Maleficarum (the Hammer of the Wicked) is the first work that reaches a widespread attention in the subject, and works as a inquisitorial manual for witch-hunters. But it's not Church who tries the most in Modern Ages. On the contrary, Civil Courst are responsible for 85%-90% of the executions. Switzerland is home to the first witch-hunting proccess and an estimate of 5,000-10,000 makes it one of the most affected regions in Europe. Only by the early 18th century, with the Ilustration on the doors of Geneva, will the horrible massacre stop producing victims on the western side of the Alps.
