Led by an Evil Spirit: Lesser-Known Witches of New England

January 28, February 25, March 24
Outside of the well-known witchcraft outbreak at Salem and Essex County in 1692, there were other cases that resulted in trials of people suspected of covenanting with the Devil in order to harm their neighbors. These crises reveal fascinating details about community life in seventeenth-century New England towns and the fears and recriminations that sometimes resulted in the executions of those deemed to be servants of Satan. All lectures are free of charge and will be presented virtually via Zoom webinar. Registration required.
