text:
Andrew Man was a cunning man and healer in Aberdeen who was tried as a witch in 1597, when an old man, and burnt in 1598. He said that his powers came from the Queen of Elphame – a fairy queen with whom he had regularly consorted. His story is notable as an example of a male witch who was believed to have had a sexual relationship with a supernatural entity - in the case of female witches, they were typically believed to have consorted with the Devil, whereas Man claimed to have sexual relations
