Thousands of people, mostly women, were accused of practicing witchcraft and were subjected to brutal interrogations and torturous methods to extract confessions. The Salem witch trials in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1692 are perhaps the most infamous example of this dark chapter in history. A wave of hysteria and paranoia swept through the community, leading to the execution of 20 people who were accused of witchcraft. It is important to note that the belief in witchcraft was not limited to these historical contexts. Witchcraft and witch-like practices can still be found in various cultures today, sometimes under different names and with different interpretations. Part 1 of this note only scratches the surface of the complex history and practices of witchcraft. In subsequent parts, we will explore the different types of witchcraft, their rituals and beliefs, and how witchcraft is both feared and revered in modern times..
