What is the Buddhist view, if any, on witchcraft?

Christianity takes a very dim view of the practice

So far as I know, Christianity doesn't approve of "witchcraft" but does approve of "miracles".

I think the difference is meant to be whether the source of the magic is God, or, a Devil.

I'm not really asking whether answerers personally believe that magic / witchcraft exists

So I guess by "witchcraft" you mean any kind of magic.

I think some scriptures talk of or mention, tells a story which includes, various psychic powers -- reading minds, television (seeing what happens far away), teleportation (disappearing from here and appearing there), psychic projection (seeming to appear somewhere else), flying though the air, knowing the state into which someone recently-deceased has (or has not) been reborn, and so on, others too.

These powers are often associated with adept practitioners, enlightened people, the Buddha -- but not necessarily, i.e. merely having these attainments isn't proof of being enlightened -- many yogis do, apparently.

A monk who has such a power is forbidden (by the Vinaya, the monastic rules) from demonstrating them to laypeople, for various reasons -- lay people are too easily impressed, they ought to be impressed by the Dhamma instead, and they shouldn't favour one monk over another just because one has psychic powers.

"A monk thus consummate in virtue sees no danger anywhere from his restraint through virtue. Just as a head-anointed noble warrior king who has defeated his enemies sees no danger anywhere from his enemies, in the same way the monk thus consummate in virtue sees no danger anywhere from his restraint through virtue. Endowed with this noble aggregate of virtue, he is inwardly sensitive to the pleasure of being blameless. This is how a monk is consummate in virtue.
