Matthew Hopkins didn't kill any witches. His evidence caused them to be found guilty in court and sentenced to hang by a judge and jury. The exact number is unknown but estimated to be somewhere around 300 accused, and 150 or so actually found guilty, and slightly less than that number executed due to judicial reprieves.
He was born by cesarean section and fulfills the witches prophecy that only a man not born of a woman can kill Macbeth
People who were pagans, wiccans or did witchcraft went underground, and that's why now days you come across people who don't even know what paganism or wicca is and also believe witches and witchcraft is not real. Whereas paganism was there in the VERY beginning so then shouldn't it be more out there? it isn't because of the burning times. Although now Salem is a place where a lot of wiccans, witches and pagans live, they've made it their home, since the burning times died out and more open minded, reasonable people came around.
He was a 'witch hunter'. He designed tests to find out if women were witches or not, but most, if not all of his tests led to death either way. This meant that whoever was accused of being a witch, no matter how stupid the reason, the were killed in whatever test the 'witch hunter' chose to use.
For exactly the same reasons people from every other country in the world kill people.
There were no real witches in salem.

Because at the time, the only explanation for extraordinary ideas and accomplishments was witchcraft. So people accused of witchcraft or knowing a witch would either be killed or forced to reveal the location of other witches (which they lied about because witches are fictional)
Many demons on Charmed used an athame (which is a dagger)to kill witches.
