The practice of witchcraft in the US dates back to the age of the Puritans many of whom laid claims to the powers of the supernatural. From a historical perspective, the development of witchcraft as a religion is closely associated with the early days of Puritanism and its strict measures to cleanse the church from its evil practices. The membership of the church continued to become more priest-centered. People had to confess their experience of conversion to be a member of the church. To get rid of all these difficulties, many separatist groups were formed and some women started practicing witchcraft. In 1692, the church became fearful of these evil practices and started a fierce attack on this religion called Wicca in an attempt to get rid of sin. Halloween's traditional association with the occult has inspired many women, young and old, to celebrate the festivity by projecting this image.

According to Dr. Richard Golden, editor of the Encyclopedia of Witchcraft: The Western Tradition, the practice of door-to-door solicitation for charity in the early years of the festival gradually evolved into today's custom of trick-or-treating with costumed children out for a good time and some candy to take home with them . Moreover, those accused of diabolical witchcraft in the 15th through the 18th centuries were believed to fly in darkness on brooms, which is why many of today's witch Halloween costumes include brooms.
