Subject: RE: Folklore: Hunting the witch at Pendle Hill
When I lived around Rochdale I would go up on Pendle Hill on the night of Halloween, supposedly looking for witches. There were always quite a few others up there looking for witches too.
Bloody silly idea really, what sensible witch would be up on Pendle at night at that time of the year? The weather was ALWAYS horrible.
It was around the mid-70s, I don't know if it still happens. Never found any witches though...
