Conjure wife

"Conjure Wife" by Fritz Leiber is a supernatural horror novel published in 1943. When sociology professor Norman Saylor discovers his wife Tansy practices witchcraft, he dismisses it as superstition and convinces her to destroy her protective charms. His luck immediately turns catastrophic. Norman must now confront an unsettling reality: witchcraft flourishes as an open secret among women, and by interfering, he has left them both defenseless against the spells of others. A classic of modern horror fiction that layers the mundane with the uncanny.
