Witchery adds witchcraft and nature magic to Minecraft: cauldrons, broomsticks, ritual circles, magical brews, a bit of necromancy and voodoo for good measure; all topped off with a fetching pointy hat.
Witchery allows players to explore the magical art of witchcraft and though it, to learn to control the natural magic present in the world (and sometimes other dimensions).
Witchery provides several branches of witchcraft for a new witch or warlock to try their hand at. Witchcraft does not really resemble the flashy spell-casting performed by wizards and their ilk. There are no lightning wands or spell books, enchanted armor or flaming swords; instead, a well tended witch's garden will provide a lot of helpful ingredients for magic that will get you out of the occasional scrape.
There are of course darker sides to magic; and although these may bring power more quickly, the cost may be too high. Making bargains with demons should never be undertaken lightly!

it's surreal in a sense to trace the vague fragments of history of this mod + its creator that's long gone
to edit the remnants of the mod in a dodgy verboten way to fix things that'll never be fixed and be unable to ever share it
ooh well, perhaps would get a kick out of the nonsense that led me to this point
I visit this page every now and then in hopes of seeing some clarification in the comments or maybe even an update from even the creator. Not that I'd be expecting it, especially since the account that has control over this page is disabled, I guess.
Regardless, I can't help but spend my time here for a few minutes frequently, because it helped contribute to my discovery of this amazing mod; in fact, my favorite Minecraft mod.
This is and always be my favorite mod. So well done in every single way and with a wiki that is just pure awesomeness. It's so sad to see it abandoned. ;(
The way this have been left abandoned and the lack of footprints the dev have made online (none) have made me for years wonder about how the dev is doing.
Does anyone know if he's doing ok? Is he alive? I don't care about the mod in this case, I just want to now that he's ok.
there ARE Spiritual Successors to this like Bewitchment, it's a really good mod, but it's just not the original Witchery mod, you know? it's like Sequels, they're pretty good, but nothing can beat the Original.
Is there going to be 1.18.1 version?
In reply to breebabyplayz04:
Are you serious? It hasn't been updated for 7 years mate.
In reply to mattzac4012:
theres a discord where a port is coming to 1.12 and another versions possibly higher or will stay on 1.12. Its called witchery:ressurected
Hey, hope you're doing good, if you can even see this. Just wanna say that I'm sure this community misses you, and not for the reason we want to see you continue to update this mod, but rather you vanished out of nowhere, and we hope that everything is alright and it wasn't a bad reason to go out.
Thanks for making my childhood with this incredible mod. It will always continue to be my absolute favorite mod for Minecraft.
In reply to Solariums123:cannot have said it better myself
Can u plz do a 1.15.2 version of this?
Witchery for New Versions (1.16.5)
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/witchery-rewitched
Still heavily WIP, but that's by far better than nothing (unless you count Bewitchment but that's for Fabric).
It's telling that, though it was last updated in 2015, no other mod has been able to approach Witchery for its technical breadth and depth. No other mod has been able to combine fantasy race changes, multiple boss battles, a potion overhaul, the underpinnings of faction conflict, and magical superpowers in one independent JAR file. I'm still finding new mysteries to poke at, even now.

I miss this guy. Hope he's doing good.
Hey love this mod but coming from a witchcraft practitioner could you please refrain from using the term "voodoo doll", voodoo along with voodoo dolls are a closed practice and i know you probably didn't mean any harm by this but normalizing voodoo dolls if your not apart of the practice is very dangerous and disrespectful. please don't take this as hate im just informing you on the matter <3
this mod
In reply to luzdelunagaming:
this mod hasn't been updated in 6 years and its just a block game and the mod was made to mirror witchcraft
In reply to luzdelunagaming:
bro it's a fucking mod for a block game
In reply to luzdelunagaming:
As a practitioner of Voudou, please stop speaking as if this mod is disrespecting the practice when you don't practice it. There's nothing dangerous or disrespectful about having it's likeness in a mod for a block game that hasn't been updated in forever. Your comment on the other hand...
In reply to luzdelunagaming:
LOL this dumbass believes in magic
In reply to baylahmacun123:
Carefull!!!1! He might hex you with his Evil!!!!!!!
In reply to luzdelunagaming:
It's about different types of magic- not just your own practices.
