As the Salem witch trials continue throughout the summer, two shocking incidents disturb the pious villagers of Salem: George Burroughs recites the Lord’s Prayer perfectly right before his execution, a feat that a witch should not be able to do; and Giles Corey is pressed to death after refusing to answer to his accusers. Despite this the authorities are determined to crush the conspiracy of witches at whatever cost. In September the trials and executions are suddenly suspended by Governor William Phips, who learns that members of the elite, including his wife, are now being accused of witchcraft. As the prisoners are released, Salem must now deal with the aftermath of the witch trials: lives ruined; families destroyed; and the deaths of many innocent people.

The WITCHES OF SALEM miniseries unravels the hysteria that unfoldedduring the Salem witch trials, and led to the execution of 20 women in an affluent New England community. This docu-drama is a real-life horror story with young teenage girls tragically accused and convicted by the shadowy adults lurking in the background. The series draws on extensive historical documents and court records to bring this drama to life.
