Witches freak me out. 8 years ago I made the mistake of mentioning this to Ben, who told everyone else at the office. For weeks I would get E-mails from Dougy, Mac, and Ben of random scary photos of witches.
Good times, indeed… now onto what this post is actually about.
In 1692, the quiet Puritan town of Salem, Massachusetts descended into hysteria. What began with a few strange fits among young girls spiraled into one of the darkest chapters in colonial American history: The Salem Witch Trials.
Fear, superstition, and the weight of religious fervor turned neighbour against neighbour as accusations spread like wildfire. Within a year, dozens were executed or imprisoned, and the town was forever scarred by its own paranoia.
