If your child wanted to become a mermaid after reading H.C.A. no matter how hard they tried they could never be a mermaid. On the other hand it is entirely possible that an inquisitive child wanting to find out more about witchcraft could find some more detailed sources on the subject and could potentially get into some very serious, and very bad stuff. There is a significant difference between fantasy and the occult. Even if you believe that "serious" occultism is all a bunch of superstitious garbage, there are some very odd people that take it very seriously. Probably not the kind of people you want your kids hanging around.

Then again, how many people have really become Satanists by reading Tolkien or Rawlings?
