The Witchfinders was a novelisation based on the 2018 television episode The Witchfinders. It was written by the original writer Joy Wilkinson and released by Target Books on 11 March 2021.
Publisher's summary
'I am an expert on witchcraft, Doctor, but I wish to learn more. Before you die, I want answers.'
The TARDIS lands in the Lancashire village of Bilehurst Cragg in the 17th century, and the Doctor, Ryan, Graham and Yaz soon become embroiled in a witch trial run by the local landowner. Fear stalks the land, and the arrival of King James I only serves to intensify the witch hunt.
But the Doctor soon realises there is something more sinister than paranoia and superstition at work. Tendrils of living mud stir in the ground and the dead lurch back to horrifying life as an evil alien presence begins to revive. The Doctor and her friends must save not only the people of Bilehurst Cragg from the wakening forces, but the entire world.
