The Salem Witch Trials were a series of hearings and prosecutions of people accused of witchcraft in colonial Massachusetts between February 1692 and May 1693. The trials resulted in the executions of twenty people, fourteen of them women, and five men. One man, Giles Corey, was pressed to death for refusing to plead, and at least five people died in jail. The trials began when a group of young girls in Salem Village, including Betty Parris and Abigail Williams, began experiencing strange symptoms such as fits, seizures, and trance-like states. The girls accused several women in the community of bewitching them, and their accusations quickly spread. The accused were often outsiders or people who had already been identified as troublemakers, such as Tituba, a Caribbean slave, and Sarah Good, a homeless beggar.

Soon, in a small store front around the corner, More Moe s opened, with an inventory limited to the valuable rare and fine arts book collections, with limited hours of business, and with a staff limited to two, Gene Barone now general manager of Moe s and John Wong the still reigning book wizard of More Moe s. Sam and his group would later move next door to found a separate book shop they named Shambala Books, which thrived until recently, and which also developed into Shambala Publications, still quite vigorous but now far from its home.

The accused were often outsiders or people who had already been identified as troublemakers, such as Tituba, a Caribbean slave, and Sarah Good, a homeless beggar. The trials were conducted in a chaotic and frenzied atmosphere. The court admitted spectral evidence, which was testimony from the afflicted girls that they were being tormented by the accused witches' spirits.

This type of evidence was highly unreliable and subjective, as it relied on the girls' interpretations of their experiences. Despite this, many people believed in the existence of witches and the power they had to harm others. The trials eventually spread to include more of the community, with dozens of people being accused and arrested. People from all walks of life, including respected members of the community, were accused and tried. The trials served as a way for members of the community to assert their power and control over others, fueling the hysteria that gripped Salem Village. In the end, the trials came to an end when Governor William Phips disbanded the Court of Oyer and Terminer, the court responsible for the trials. The trials were widely criticized and condemned, and the majority of the accused were eventually released. The Salem Witch Trials continue to fascinate and intrigue people today, serving as a cautionary tale about the dangers of mass hysteria and the importance of due process and fairness in the legal system..
