Salem Witches
It all started at the beginning of 1692, when Reverend Samuel Parris’ daughter and niece began acting strangely, having fits, screaming, throwing things, and contorting themselves in bizarre positions, in Salem, colonial Massachusetts.
The doctor came up with a “reasonable” explanation: it was the Devil’s work. The girls blamed three women for their behavior: a slave, a beggar, and an old lady. They all fitted the descriptions of an outcast.
The slave confessed to having dealt with the Devil, and also claimed that there were other witches in town seeking to hurt the Puritans. Hysteria soon took over.
Bridget Bishop was the first woman to be executed as a result of the Salem Witch Trials. Soon, 18 others followed on Salem’s Gallow’s Hill. More than 200 persons were accused of witchcraft, at least 19 of which were executed by hanging, while others died in prison.
The infamous trial became a synonym for paranoia and injustice.
