About Me

My photo
Museum of Witchcraft
Boscastle, Cornwall, United Kingdom
I am a privately owned museum which has been in existence since 1951 when I first opened on The Isle of Man. I have been in Boscastle since 1961 and display a large collection of witchcraft related artefacts dating from prehistory to today. I also have a large library with around 5,000 books which is used by researchers from the UK and around the world. This photo shows Cecil Williamson, founder of the museum.
