Well, it's your religion and you don't have to tell anyone about it if you don't want to. If you'd rather not bring it up, you're not required to bring it up. Your religion isn't really anyone else's business. Besides, you can always tell them at a later date if you choose to do so... but if you tell them now, you can't take it back.
On the other hand, you may be going about this in the wrong order. They might be more open to the idea that the may have been misinformed if someone they care about is actually into it. The idea with some prejudices is that one tends to think about it in an "us" and "them" sort of deal. When it turns out that one of "us" is actually one of "them", it can mean they have to re-assess their beliefs about that group. They think "huh, if someone I respect is into it, maybe my ideas about it weren't sufficiently informed". I mean, they're your friends. Your religion shouldn't be an issue.
Either way, you're not saying "I'm a Wiccan", you're saying "hey, I'm interested in Wicca". They can't disown you for researching something, right?
If in doubt, steer them in the direction of Religious tolerance.org.
