i learned that they believed in witches and they were thought the devil would go inside of them and do harm to others.
they made witch cakes and gave them to dogs and if the dog started to act like the person acused then they were a witch.
They were acused and had a trial most of the accused were found guilty and hung or sent to prision to die.
19 men and women were hung because they were acused of witchcraft.
back then church and religion were related so the puritans ran the government. they had very harsh rules and that is how they go away with the salem witch trials.
they would acuse people of being witches for the dumbest reasons.
that winter some girls got sick and the doctor couldn't help them so it was said that it was witchcraft.
