When promoting his 1914 movie , Christensen (1879-1959) came into possession of two books: Kramer’s (1486) and Jules Michelet’s (1862). Inspired, he sought out more books about witchcraft and the witch-hunts; not the huge library as sometimes claimed, but enough to fill a large steamer trunk (which the author Jack Stevenson claims was stolen in America). Christensen intended to be the (Saints) and (Spirits) but after failing to get funding in his native Denmark for (the hefty bill being picked up by Svensk Filmindustri) and its mixed reception upon release, the other two films were never made.
