This story revisits one of the most frightening times in early U.S. history where the events of 1692 and 1693 took place in Salem, Massachusetts. This all began as a mysterious affliction of two young girls who suffered violent fits and exhibited strange behavior that soon spread to other young women. Soon, several hundreds of women were accused of witchcraft, others were executed, and others died in jail. Killing the Witches presents the history of how the Puritan tradition and the power of early American ministers shaped the origins of the United States, influencing the founding fathers, the American Revolution, and even the Constitutional Convention.
