The Salem witch hunt was a dark period in American history that took place in 1692 in Salem, Massachusetts. It was a time of widespread panic and hysteria, where a number of people were accused of witchcraft and subsequently executed. The events of the Salem witch hunt have since become a notorious example of how fear and paranoia can lead to the persecution of innocent individuals. One of the key aspects of the Salem witch hunt was the reliance on spectral evidence. Spectral evidence was the testimony of witnesses who claimed to have seen the accused witches in their dreams or visions, tormenting them or others. This type of evidence was highly controversial, as it relied solely on the testimony of individuals and could not be corroborated or proven in any tangible way.

In the film, Principal Cinch and the rest of the Crystal Prep Academy Shadowbolts pressure Sci-Twi into releasing the magic she collected in her pendant and use it against Canterlot High School to win the Friendship Games.
This type of evidence was highly controversial, as it relied solely on the testimony of individuals and could not be corroborated or proven in any tangible way. Despite this, spectral evidence was given significant weight and was used to send many people to trial and ultimately, their deaths. Another aspect of the Salem witch hunt was the use of coerced confessions.
Unleash the Magic
The story takes place between season 5 and 6 of the FiM series.
Queen Chrysalis said that she "reformed" herself so she and her team can participate in the Equestrian Games that she and Princess Celestia (my mother) arranged.
Before the games began, Chrysalis gave me a locket that she said contains "good luck". But as the games went on, the locket was draining, Rainbow Dash's, Rarity's, Applejack's, Pinkie Pie's, and Fluttershy's magic from the Tree of Harmony.
My sister Alex discovered that Queen Chrysalis was using the locket to drain the magic so she and the Changelings can use it for her advantage to rule Equestria.
But before Alex could blow the whistle, she was kidnapped but managed to escape so she can get to the stadium to foil Chrysalis' plan.
As the ending event of the games is about to begin, Chrysalis threatened me that if I don't release the magic harm will come upon my sister. What do you think I might do.
Many of the accused witches were subjected to harsh interrogations and even physical torture in order to extract confessions. These confessions were often obtained through fear and intimidation, making them unreliable and untruthful. The pressure to confess, coupled with the widespread belief in witchcraft at the time, led many innocent people to admit to being witches, even though they were not. Additionally, the social and economic tensions of the time played a significant role in the Salem witch hunt. Salem was a small, close-knit community where tensions between various groups and individuals were simmering beneath the surface. The accusations of witchcraft provided an outlet for these tensions, allowing people to vent their frustrations and settle personal scores. The hunt for witches became a way for people to assert power and control over others, leading to the targeting of individuals who were seen as outcasts or vulnerable. Overall, the Salem witch hunt was a tragic event fueled by fear, paranoia, and social tensions. The reliance on spectral evidence and coerced confessions is indicative of the injustices that occurred during this time. The hunt for witches served as a mechanism for individuals to settle personal scores and assert power over others. The consequences were devastating, leading to the deaths of innocent people and leaving a lasting impact on American history..
