not at all.

it's not practical, like casting spells.

Infact it's absolutely natural, when believing in G-d, and angels, and heaven, that you believe in a spiritual reality, that works in its own ways.

Mysticism just claims knowledge of how some of that works.

The question is, whether it has a foundation or not.   But it's not witchcraft.

Mysticism is really a natural extension of belief in a spiritual reality. 
Nothing sinister.

Dangerous perhaps for the person that believes in it if he is wrong and living completely deluded.

Unfortunately most people do not understand its teachings and it appears that way. In fact it is quite logical, and common-sensical. You just need a good teacher who knows how to "decode" the language of Kabbalah.
