For this years Halloween episode Chris & Dean discuss the Salem Witch Trials!

The Salem Witch Trials, held in 1692 in colonial Massachusetts, were a series of prosecutions of people accused of witchcraft, resulting in the execution of 20 individuals, mostly women. Driven by fear, superstition, and religious fervor, the trials began after young girls in Salem Village claimed to be possessed and accused several townspeople of witchcraft. The legal proceedings were marked by questionable evidence, such as "spectral evidence," where visions and dreams were used as testimony. The trials ended by early 1693, leaving a lasting legacy of injustice and cautionary tales about mass hysteria and due process.
