    hexes, hysteria & the haunting salem witch trials

    Step into the eerie shadows of Salem, 1692, where whispers of witchcraft hung thick in the air... This Halloween, we’re bringing you a bewitching special on the Salem Witch Trials—a time when fear turned friends into foes, and innocent lives were caught in the storm of suspicion. With our super special guest, Katie Kennedy (TikTok’s very own The History Gossip), we’ll dive into the twisted tales of Salem, exploring the eerie mix of religious fervor, social gossip, and gendered tensions that sparked the hysteria. Get ready for the spine-chilling stories of women like Bridget Bishop and Rebecca Nurse, and the downright brutal “tests” they endured.
