About the event

The Salem Witch Trials
REMOTE SPEAKER

In the year 1692, the daughter and niece of Reverend Samuel Parris were plagued with a mysterious illness. Soon, inhabitants of Salem Village were faced with their worst fear—confirmation that witches had arrived in Essex County. Ultimately, the colony experienced the largest and deadliest series of witch trials in North American history. During this program, participants will learn how and why a witch-hunt broke out in Salem in 1692. Participants will see images of the sites with connections to the Salem witch trials, including the land where the court house, jail, and meeting house once stood, as well as a selection of primary source documents and relevant artifacts.

Presented by Rachel Christ-Doane, Director of Education, Salem Witch Museum
