A Bewitching Place in Massachusetts
By Linda Tancs
Salem, Massachusetts, is famous for its witch trials in 1692, during which many locals were executed for allegedly practicing witchcraft. The Salem Witch Museum explores those unfortunate events and chronicles the history of witchcraft through the ages. In nearby Danvers the Witchcraft Victims’ Memorial is the first such memorial to honor all of the witchcraft victims and is located across the street from the site of the original Salem Village Meeting House where many of the witch examinations took place.
