Salem Witch Trials- NEW Revelations 

I'm totally looking that up, because bad ass

@@rudeboyjohn3483 It was King Kalman of Hungary who declared that witches didn't exist, not King Bela. But basically yeah, Hungary was one of the few places in Europe where witch-hunts were never a big thing.

@@jbshiva865 There are such a thing as witches they are called satan worshippers

@@bobburger9152 Hail Satan then. :P

@@bobburger9152 No, those are satanists. Witches are typically pagans who worship nature.

Awesome

I was just about to comment that I'm so excited I get to use "witch to kitsch" in my final project in college! Caitlin, you are now a credible, citable source!

Sorry are the patreons paying for you and your friends to fly around America for seconds worth of footage? I think so. AMAZING!

🤣🤣🤣

Morbid minute: I knew someone that died behind a Walgreens

Let's go!

Wow, put into that context, the Walgreens I grew up near ... had a strip mall behind it which included a cheap Chinese food buffet my late parents frequented. Chilling ... lol!

Well, another October, another month of traffic jams all over downtown Salem. I wonder how many of the tourists actually traipsed out to the Walgreens and visited the small memorial up the block.

Lynda Wells that's a really interesting story.

Lynda Wells I'm fairly certain a character in the tv show Salem is at least inspired by her! In the show a woman who is a witch (Mary Sibley) gets power by making her wealthy husband unable to speak or move.

How interesting - I’ve never heard of ‘dead in the eyes of the law’ before....

My 8th great-uncle, Rev. Samuel Willard, was - fortunately - one of the public figures that spoke out against the Salem Trials (I was so relieved to discover that). salem.lib.virginia.edu/people?group.num=all&mbio.num=mb27

I'm related to Ann Putnam. She's something crazy like my 2nd cousin 1 million times removed or something. I'm sorry that my ancestors put your ancestors through that.

Jefferson said that in a letter it is nowhere in the founding documents. It prohibits the government from having a state religion like the Brittish did.

The same hypocritical fathers. Bye

@@riveraspen2745 Hypercritical how? Almost the entire world was ruled by unelected kings and dictators. The founding fathers created the concept of individual freedom and human rights. Read a history book dummy.

@@riveraspen2745 Just for your information, it was white Christian Republicans who freed the slaves. The Democrats? Not so much.

@@davidbehsman3324 They didn't free anyone. Jim Crow went full force and most of the slaves in the South as well as the North were forced to stay on the plantations and share crop. Either way, Lincoln said in a famous recorded speech that he never intended for the equality or non-segregation between races. All men in charge were wealthy and white regardless of chosen party. It's common knowledge.

That is absolutely true

@@williamdavidfrancavilla7388 wow, now that is some serious determination. I'm assuming he was trying to preserve his estate for his family? It's a terrible way to go, but at least he'll be remembered for showing such bravery to protect his family's future.

@@lilyt5855 I was in the play, "The Crucible" in high school. We were all told to research the character we played. I was Reverend Hale and a friend of mine was Giles Corey. Very interesting stuff we found. 20 years later I found out that one of my ancestors was Sarah Vibber... one of the accusers.

His reasoning is actually even more badass. Historians now agree that while that is a motivator, his biggest reason was a refusal to give into the hysteria and essentially stick it to the man

Still kinda bad *** tho ngl

Ancestry says, Rebecca Nurse, is a relative of mine !

My sons great great aunt was also Rebecca Nurse! His grandmother was a Related to the nurse family.

So looks as if we might all be cousins!!! Nice to meet you all

Deepest sadness that she was treated so badly

Either there are a few extra greats in there or she would have still been giving birth in the late 1890s/early 1900s. Mental image of a 250+ year old woman giving birth 😮.

Alucard Peach or wanted to die quicker....

Think about it. You're being tortured. You want it to last longer (than 2 days)? or quicken the agony? #morestonesplease🙋‍♀️

Giles Corey

Metal band Unearth has a song about him (i.e Giles Corey), look up "Unearth - Giles".

This torture - _"peine forte et dure"_ was a common practice in English law, until it was finally abolished in 1772: *"The prisoner shall be sent to the prison from whence he came, and put into a mean room, stopped from any light, and shall there be laid upon the bare ground, without any litter, straw, or other covering, and without any garments about him, except for something to hide his privy members. He shall lie on his back, his head shall be covered and his feet be bare. One of his arms shall be drawn with a cord, to one side of the room, and the other to the other side; and his legs shall be served in the like manner. Then there shall be laid upon his body as much iron or stone as he can bear, or more. And the first day after, he shall have three morsels of barley bread, without any drink; and the second day, he shall be allowed to drink as much as he can, at three times, of the water that is next to the prison door, except running water, without any bread; and this shall be his diet till he dies."*

Lies …

I'm also a descendant of Ann Putnam. My great aunt was a genealogist and found that out.

I've been told that we are descendants of Martha Carrier however I have not done the acestry that far back yet

By "influential" you mean "by sheer fact of privilege, was able to accuse three defenseless societal outcasts of something totally made-up and send them to their deaths." Just making sure at least one of us keeps that in perspective.

@@howtosoberI see the point you’re making, but that’s a little bit of a mischaracterization. Don’t forget that this was 17th Century New England that had just come out of a conflict unparalleled in American History- King Philip’s War. They were religious akin to how we might see Mormons today. While the Putnam family was privileged comparatively (though this privilege would have been fairly new, and not too extreme- remember, Salem hadn’t been around for much more than 66 years, and the Putnam family did not come from generational wealth back in England), their social rank was not the only factor in the trials, not by a long shot. These people believed the literal Devil walked among them. They were a battered, traumatized people, and witchcraft was an acceptable and convincing argument. Now, I’m not excusing the accusers in any way, but to say that it was purely profit driven, from a privileged family to an underclassed, free from actual belief entirely is a bit unfair.

Upon researching the West Memphis Three case in Arkansas back in the 1990's I couldn't help but draw comparisons to the Salem Witch Trials in Massachusetts back in the 1690's. In both instances; the accused were "community outcasts," both West Memphis, AR and Salem, MA were vehemently conservative and deeply religious communities, and anyone who expressed skepticism and/or criticism of the trials or expressed their belief that the accused were innocent could run the risk of accusations of being in league with Satan.

Yeah, it's sadly still a real fear and still a possibility that can happen to people. It's part of why cancel culture is feared, along with being doxxed.

Wow. And, I'm not sure, but didn't one of the accusers also die a tragic death? I know his house is supposed to be haunted. Got to visit it when I went to visit Salem but that was yeeeeeeeeears ago.

Oh, really?? I didn't know that.

That's an easy death for such a monster

That's so cool....

How was it possible to curse the Sheriff if he wasn't a witch? If you mean "to swear" at the Sheriff, impossible as his tongue was to swollen for him to speak. Hog wash. Urban legend. " It has long been rumored that Corey placed a curse on Salem and its sheriff during his torture by shouting “Damn you! I curse you and Salem!” at the sheriff before he died. ***rumored***being the key word. Four years after Corey’s death, Sheriff Corwin died suddenly of a heart attack at just 30 years old. Local legend suggests that Corey not only cursed Corwin but every Salem sheriff since 1692. While true that Sheriffs have suffered from strokes, blood diseases, etc, they are also related. When the new Sheriff came from Florida, all this nonsense stopped. Source: historyofmassachusetts.org/the-curse-of-giles-corey/ Reading is fundamental. Comprehension is key. Presentation vital for truth, justice and historical fact.

Sam Langmead I love night Vale🤗

Omg your so right

Yaaaassssss

New England is like that. Modern crap is just shoved next to historical landmarks in real close quarters. And there are so many cemeteries pretty much everywhere because nobody planned the towns at all.

I can’t believe the place they hung witches is in those people’s back yard! There’s no way I would live in that house, knowing people were unjustly murdered in my back yard!

I thought the girls , much later, confessed that they completely made up the whole thing.

Pure speculation. Never proved just a theory

this theory has largely been disproved

@@jayg1438It defies common sense to begin with, thinking that loads of people would all have the same, nearly-identical hallucinations, under the influence of ergotism (or any other drug). It's an interesting theory, and maybe someone at some point had hallucinations due to infested grain. But the idea of a coordinated witch-hunt arising from grain defies belief, like you say.

That's a common misconception. The girls ended up confessing they made it up. Though Ergot has been proven as causing some people being killed as witches, just not here. It was a cause of some 'witch' killings or 'satanic worshiper' killings in the original colonies, along with just straight up mental illness. It is possible one of the girls was under the influence of something and the others went along with what they thought would be a fun time, but after they confessed to making it up, it's pretty unlikely.

Most Americans have no idea that thousands of "witches" were tried and executed in Europe.

@@studogable Also they were hanged rather than burning...

@@studogable We're well aware. It's the stereotype about medieval Europe

@@studogable Most North Americans and Europeans have no idea how many thousands of "witches" died at the hands of slave owners or colonists (or just in general) powerful white men in South American Countries like Colombia

@@THEgayweedlobster 💀

We've all been there, staggering home on a Saturday night, thinking we see something we don't... most of us don't whip up a whole town's worth of hysteria about it though. Late 17th century drunken hallucinations had insanely good PR teams.

The 1600's equivalent of RU-vidr apology videos. I could imagine she did the same dishelved tired looks to garner pity points as well.

That makes sense! It's the same in the German city I studied in where far more witches were tortured and killed (about 1000 deaths, that was every 10th inhabitant, super high numbers even for Germany). No mention of this piece of history in public spaces, no dedicated museum, nothing. Still a very catholic city to this day. Hmmmm...

Weongl honey! I'm a Salem tour guide. We get this a lot. The original accusations were in Danvers. Several victims were from Andover. But ALL the hangings and trials and many examinations took place in the center of Salem.

Danvers is probably very grateful for the mistake

@@camogrrl Eh. It's less of a mistake and more of a technicality. Danvers is where the accused were from and where the accusations happened. Salem is where the hanging happened. Why people only want to focus on the death part that happened in Salem, we have no idea (actually, we do-- Salem Village changing its name, thereby giving all attention to Salem, which gladly took all of it)...

@@leighcochran7303 The marker for the site of the courthouse is right in the center of town. Bit of a hike from there down to the Walgreens however.

Many of the founding fathers were actually part of " the hellfire club" simply free thinkers and not exactly religious. Washington DC is actually purposely mapped out with geometric ideals free masons deeply rooted in our history geometry is also deeply rooted in the east associated with many paths of enlightenment. The occult is more acceptable now however it never fully left. I grew up with many occult ideals and philosophy folk magic was " normal" so the concept of witchcraft being some rebellion against things is not one I can understand. If we're going on baseline concepts simplified a prayer is no different from a spell. It's simply a tool to bring about a desired result. We aren't as disconnected as popular opinion suggest. I'm not sure anyone is having the last laugh on atrocities of the past aside from learning from them and out growing imaginary division bore from a hate.

@@shhimbusy7616 I know you're right about the Founding Fathers (Jefferson, et al). I was thinking of the founding fathers of Salem, the ones who had many of Salem's (innocent) people imprisoned and executed. I enjoy the irony that there is a vibrant community of people in Salem that would have been outrageous in the 1600's- perhaps that's clearer than "last laugh". The occult (a huge umbrella term which can cover everything from Freemasons, to the OTO to Wiccan traditions depending on who you ask), has certainly not been widely accepted or been able to be practiced in the open in most parts of the world or even the US consistently. I'm glad you were able to grow up in an environment where Occult ideas and folk magic were accepted and incorporated into your life- that's a gift. I agree with prayer and "spells" or other rituals being motivated by the same impulse and driving to the same end result. I'm sure a lot of people who are open-minded can see the similarities over the differences, and that's progress, which I hope continues. My general experience is that younger generations seem more accepting, and that gives me hope. Merry Meet! I hope my response clarified my original, somewhat flippant, two-liner.

It's absolutely nuts! On weekends the residents from several towns around drive blocks out of their way to avoid the traffic tie-ups in downtown from the hordes of tourists in the streets.

Soooooo.... move back to Salem. Got it!

Every time this subject comes up let everybody/every person know this fact, you are absolutely right, the real estate was claimed by the so-called good Christians, after the people were hanged. Blessed Be, White Shaman, Kelly (*-*)

The exact same happened in the UK - that’s why the Church had so much land. As punishment for harbouring a ‘Witch’, they would confiscate the families land.

Nightengale64 I could agree with you more, you are spot on!!! A Cordial Hello, I am White Shaman - Kelly - Much Love To You, Sister Spirit!!!

Yes indeed

I think those kids pulled a prank never speaking up when things went too far. Nobody should’ve ended up on trial because there was no (entertaining) toys or flat screen devices with internet in the 1600’s.

I know right now wiccans are free to be who they are there I love going to Salem.

Greywitch Gaming reclaiming space

It is important to understand that Wicca is a neo-pagan religion invented in the early 20th century by Gerald Gardner (which is fantastic! no need for appeals to tradition). The people executed for witchcraft in 17th century Salem had literally nothing to do with Wicca. They were Christian people living and dying in (and for) a Christian paradigm after the reformation.

Em P Yes but its ironic that they went on a "witch hunt" and now the town is filled with wiccans, also known as modern day "witches"

No offense intended, but that makes me sad.

ryan wood Canada has advertisements and pamphlets asking people to become organ donors when they die and they say that 1 donor can save up to 8 lives. I hope that helps.

Lshannon90 MMM bop

You can opt to donate any organ after death, or in life. To take more than the donor has willed is highly illegal. One donor could potentially save eight lives, while the donations from one could vastly improve many more. All organs can be donated, and as long as it takes, and there are no complications or malpractice, there will be no negative side effects other than scarring.

It also depends on how the organ donation system works. Look up organ donations and chain reactions. I heard of cases were one single donation started a chain that lead to over 50 transplants been performed.

Ron Swanson would have been proud of Giles Corey.

Erin im related to him......and one of the judges who was rhe grandfather of Nathaniel Hawthorne

If you pled either way--guilty or not guilty--your property would be seized. Giles was determined that his heirs (sons, IIRC) should receive what they deserved (his wife Martha was either already dead or in prison at that point), hence his refusal to plead. It was basically slow suffocation, combined with being crushed by the weight, and a truly horrible way to die (the minister who poked his tongue back in his mouth w/his cane did it purely out of spite, with a mind to torture him even more). I don't think he'd mind at all me calling him a stubborn fellow, especially for such a cause (for both his heirs and to pretty much tell the powers-that-be to go fuck themselves--think Mel Gibson at the end of Braveheart), so yes, he was a hero, and may his memory be a blessing.

Erin I live in Worcester, it's always fun to go to Salem around Halloween.

Robin Colleen Moore Yeah, I forgot to point that out about how they screwed over people either way. May his memory and ability to give the middle finger to corruption never be forgotten. :)

AmethystEyes they lived with severe conquences and were viewed as outcasts for the rest of their lives. They got exactly what was coming to them. I believe a few of them ended up as prostitutes because no good man would have them. I am trying to remember back to a paper I wrote over twenty years ago so I may be wrong

Ann's mother (also named Ann Putnam) was the real villain behind Ann's testimony--there was a long-standing family feud between the Putnams and Rebecca Nurse's family (among others--IIRC, Mr. Putnam was rather argumentative and litigious), so when the chance arose to get some payback, Mrs. Putnam jumped on it and manipulated her daughter into testifying against Rebecca, who became one of the 20 victims of the witch trials. Keep in mind that (a) the entire society sincerely believed in witchcraft, including some of their most highly educated members (e.g., Cotton & Increase Mather); and (b) Ann herself was 11-12 years old, still only a child, and, as mentioned, easily manipulated by her mother. In the years after the witchcraft frenzy finally ended, Ann came to deeply repent her involvement in the trials in general, and Rebecca's death in particular, and in 1706 took the step of standing before her congregation while the minister (NOT Parris, who had basically been run out of town after the trials) read her confession and repentance aloud. (She didn't have to do it--none of the other accusers ever spoke publicly of any regrets--but she felt her sin was significant enough to require public confession, and both her parents were long dead at that point. She died a few years later, having never married, whereas some of the other accusers did eventually marry and disappear back into respectable Puritan life, and a couple did turn out to live disreputable lives; IIRC, I think Abigail Williams also died young.

AmethystEyes Her parents forced her to accuse people because of arguments over things such as land.

I just remembered that there is also the question of if the girls who started it all were hallucinating due to a certain type of mold. No preservative back then.

Lisa Nickerson But why would only those girls be hallucinating and nobody else? Couldn't other people have gotten the moldy bread and hallucinate as well?

Strange that no one else noticed or commented on it. That's the first thing I noticed. Lol

Internet Dad hung is pretty much strictly a slang word. "Hung over, hung jury etc." The past tense of hang will always be hanged.

Pictures are hung and people are hanged. Hang isn't a slang word. It's a real word. It just refers to inanimate objects and not living ones.

www.englishrules.com/writing/2005/hanged-or-hung/

Men's privates are hung, hanged are people, that's how I always use it anyway lol. Kind of like Mould (ice mould) or Mold (fungus) for me too. I'm not a native UK speaker either, it's just preference lol.

Either is actually the correct term, it's just over time they've become interchangeable. If you wanted to go by strict English you'd use hanged

I'm sure the Walgreens REALLY appreciates that

Do not take "The Crucible" as history. Even Arthur Miller said that it is not factual, but he simply used the Trials as a setting so he could protest McCarthyism without being hauled in front of the House Un-American Activities Committee.

A good century of progress. Not perfect, but a much bigger step than softies today realize. Especially for people isolated from Europe and settled in agrarian villages on their own. However such nutty stuff would reappear in the 19th century in New England. The vampire hysteria of mid 1800s Connecticut (and other adjacent states) is quite interesting reading.

Dakota Tutor I live in NWA! I totally missed that show too bad.

Hanged is the technically correct term if you mean hung by the neck until dead. Anything or anyone can be hung. It is correct to say "I was hung by my ankles." It is not correct to say "I was hanged by my ankles." I once watched someone being hung by their neck. It was a circus performer who did not die as a result because it was part of the act. Hanged is only correct when death or an attempt at death is involved. For example you could correctly say "I was hanged but then cut down before I died, but then they hung me by my wrists and whipped me." By the way my response to your post is more for other people's benefit to clarify as I am pretty sure you already know everything I just said.

@Ruthanne D'Antuono 1585 The Archbishop of Trier ordered so many women to be executed as witches that only two women were left in two villages. Many were burned, but because it took too long also hanging was common, it was faster and easier to do. The effect was that there were only a few heirs and the diocese became heir. The men of the villages were allowed to fuck their cows without being expelled from the church and punished.
