Malin Matsdotter (1613 – 5 August 1676), also known as ''Rumpare-Malin'', was an alleged Swedish witch. She is one of the most well known alleged witches in Swedish history: known as one of few people in Sweden to be executed by burning at the stake, and often referred to as the only Swedish "witch" to have been executed by burning. She is also known as one of the last victims of the great witch hunt of 1668-76, which ended with her execution. ==Context== Malin Matsdotter was an old Swedish woman of Finnish descent, one of many victims of the witch hunt hysteria called "Det Stora Oväsendet" (The Great Noise) in Sweden between 1668 and 1676. She was the only known witch in Sweden to have been burned alive: normally, the witches in Sweden were decapitated before they were burned. Before this time, very few people had been accused of this crime in Sweden, but during these eight years, after the accusation of Märet Jonsdotter, about 280 people, both women and men, were decapitated and burned as witches. The Swedish witch frenzy reached its peak with the Torsåker witch trials, and it reached Stockholm with the Gävle-Boy in 1675, where it lasted until 1676, and ended with the famous execution of Matsdotter. In accordance with the rest of the witch trials in the great Swedish witch hunt of 1668-76, the witch hunt of Stockholm was mainly concentrated not on sorcery, but on the belief that the witches abducted children to the Witches' Sabbath of Satan in Blockula. Malin Matsdotter was one of many people accused of having done this. Before her, five other women in the city had been executed for this crime, starting with the sisters Brita and Anna Zippel.
