About this episode

This episode explores the underlying societal issues behind the Salem Witch Trials, emphasizing the dangers of fear and unfounded rumors.

They say Salem was about witches. It wasn’t, not technically. It wasn't about people communing with the devil and casting spells, it was really about all of us, and what happens when fear is spread and rumors are made official without any solid evidence. 👀 Watch This Episode On Youtube: https://youtu.be/SCVyzQcnkzg 👁 Check out our movie AN ANGRY BOY: https://www.anangryboy.com 💀 MERCH: https://scary-mysteries-merch.dashery.com 💀 Scary Mysteries SECRET VAULT: https://www.patreon.com/c/scarymysteries/collections 🎧 Our Other Podcast Scary Mysteries: ⁠https://open.spotify.com/show/3ZooEZMoZ421WdsOVJhVkT⁠ 👁 Instagram: ⁠https://www.instagram.com/andrew.fitzg⁠ 👁 TikTok: ⁠https://www.tiktok.com/@andrewfitzgerald⁠ 👁 Facebook: ⁠https://www.facebook.com/scarymysteriesofficial⁠ 👁 X: ⁠https://x.com/ScaryMysteries1⁠ 🗣 Business Inquiries, questions and comments hit us up at ⁠scarymysteries1@gmail.com⁠ Learn more about your ad choices.
