Witchcraft of Salem Village (Hardcover)

Stories of magic, superstition, and witchcraft were strictly forbidden in
the little town of Salem Village. But a group of young girls ignored those
rules, spellbound by the tales told by a woman named Tituba. When questioned
about their activities, the terrified girls set off a whirlwind of controversy
as they accused townsperson after townsperson of being witches. Author Shirley
Jackson examines in careful detail this horrifying true story of accusations,
trials, and executions that shook a community to its foundations.
