During the period of the 14th to the 18th centuries in Europe, around 40,000 to 60,000 people were sentenced to death for practicing witchcraft. They were tortured and scorched alive in front of many people. Most of the people who practiced witchcraft were women; however there were also men, children and animals sentenced as well. Nowadays, we don't burn witches alive, thank goodness. In the olden days there were methods to identify witches, and you might be curious about what these methods were. Below are the 8 distinctive marks that were looked for.

1. Marks on their body.

You can identify a witch by a mark in their body. Witches had a distinctive mark on them physically. It can be in any form such as a mole, birthmark, symbols and some also believe that there is an �invisible mark�.

2. Ghostly sexual intercourse.

Witches had sex with non-human entities, the Devil, called incubi or male demosn and succubi a female demon.

3. They fly during the night.

All witches had the ability to fly during the night.
