Witch Hunt

Mysteries of the Salem Witch Trials

De: Marc Aronson

Narrado por: Alan Nebelthau

Salem, Massachusetts, 1692

In a plain meetinghouse a woman stands before her judges. The accusers, girls and young women, are fervent and overexcited. The accused is a poor, unpopular woman who had her first child before she was married. As the trial proceeds the girls begin to wail, tear their clothing, and scream that the woman is hurting them. Some of them expose wounds to the horrified onlookers, holding out the pins that have stabbed them - pins that appeared as if by magic. Are they acting or are they really tormented by an unseen evil? Whatever the cause, the nightmare has begun. The witch trials will eventually claim 25 lives, shatter the community, and forever shape the American social conscience.

it was okay

It was very boring and the person reading it didn't exactly make it any better. I found myself falling asleep to it more then anything.
