Introduction

        The Salem Witch Trials can be considered one of the most important events in the history of colonial America. Since those days at the end of the 17th century when 19 people were hanged and hundreds were suspected of being witches, several interpretations have been posed as an explanation for the accusations.

        In this blog I am going to present the main theories regarding why the events of Salem happened and what were the main reasons. But first of all, I want to check how much do you know about the history of witchcraft in general and what happened in Salem in 1692. So, please, answer this questionnaire to check your knowledge about this topic.
