Witchcraft in North Carolina

Tom Peete Cross examines witchcraft beliefs and incidents in North Carolina, placing them within regional folklore and historical narrative. The book is significant as a local study that helps readers see how older European notions of witchcraft adapted within American vernacular culture.

Tom Peete Cross (1879–1951) was an American scholar of Celtic and comparative literature. His work is important for the study of myth, folklore, and traditional narrative material that often intersects with esoteric and religious studies, though he was primarily an academic rather than an occult writer.
