I think that sensible Christians eventually woke up and realized (finally joining other sensible people) that there were no real witches, no such thing as black magic, and the people hunted down and killed as witches in this country were all wrongfully accused for some reason or another. If you didn't like your neighbor, it would have been very easy to convince the superstitious townfolk that you saw them practicing witchcraft, just to have them killed. The term "witch hunt" came to mean falsely or unfairly accusing someone of something bad just so you could find a scapegoat to blame for whatever problems are happening.
Unfortunately not all Christians got the memo, and the more fervent believers tend to hold onto the black magic & witchcraft superstition. But I've found in general that it seems that the more religious a person is, the more superstitious they are. I've known fervent believers who are afraid to walk under a ladder or spill salt, not to mention believing that the full moon makes people crazy/affects the birth rate.

Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
