El Martillo de las Brujas

Given the book's influence on witch hunts, I wonder how much of it was shaped by the religious tensions of the time versus genuine scholarly inquiry.

The book's vivid accounts of demons and witchcraft practices are intense — does anyone else feel a mix of curiosity and discomfort reading these sections?

Considering its role in history, I'm curious whether the author intended it as a theological guide, a legal manual, or something else entirely.
