'The Wicked Shall Decay' is a collection of folk magic spells and rituals from rural Victorian England, gathered at a time when they were still practiced.

The spells are divided into sections, such as those related to the devil, or to the famous magical word ABRACADBRA.

Accompanying the spells are several short sections by the author, explaining the context of these spells and charms in British history.

The Book is attractively printed in red and black ink, on heavy paper, with 31 illustrations.
