The REAL witches of Salem were the people who did the accusing; who stood by drooling as innocent people were persecuted or executed. The sad thing is that this demonic judgementality persists in many communities today. It’s part of human nature, I guess: to point and shriek “YOU! YOU’RE THE REASON WE’RE SO UNHAPPY!” It’s always easier than getting up off your behind and building your own life, isn’t it? Salem went a step further: they tried to build the superstructure of their happiness with a mortar composed of the flesh and blood of innocent people. Having been there, I can verify to you that something wicked lingers there, and it has nothing to do with witchcraft.

I am a descendant of Giles Corey and have taken interest lately in learning more about this “curse”. I heard about it years ago, but recently decided to understand more about what really happened back then.

I love this era of history and the book “The Crucible”, which was about the Salem Witch Trials.
I don’t know if he haunts the place, but the happenings of how he died are true.

“The hottest places in hell are reserved for those who in times of great moral crises maintain their neutrality”
Dante Alighieri

It is as applicable to those in 1692,
as it is today pursuant to (current) Salem Mayor Kimberly Driscoll.

MR:
Faith is not inherently bad, in fact, it is quite good. Certain beliefs and belief systems, on the other hand ARE bad. To say that faith is not good, means you do not trust, as you cannot trust anyone that you do not have faith in. See the difference? If not, I feel sorry for you.

Now, as for what happens after you die, nobody knows. You may be right, you may also be wrong, like I said, nobody knows.

The Salem Witch Trials were and will always be a blemish on Massachusetts history. People used others’ susperstitions and fears to get what they wanted. Take the real story of The Crucible, where a handful of girls were accused of being witches. Absolutely no proof. Some of the men making the claim had affairs with these girls, and when they were found out, the men cliamed that they were “bewitched”. Now, hundreds of years later, we hear stories of how they actually were witches, and cast spells… All without anything to back up that claim.

New England, especially Salem, has a history full of ghost and witch stories. In almost every story, there is fact, just as there is fiction. And when that fiction is exposed, does it really make that story any less fascinating?
