Ep. 118 - The Cave of Witches The Conspirators Podcast

Back in 1880, a tiny island off the coast of Chile became the site of one of the last witch trials in South America. The defendants who were rounded up told a horrific tale of black magic, extortion and murder. And if we are to believe the whole story, they may also have created something unspeakable in a remote hidden cave.
