Summary
So, this week, we’re taking a detour from last week’s excursion to the 1950s with Betty, Barney and their sausage dog Delsey, and journey to a small Lancashire town in the early 1600s and discuss one of the most infamous witch trials in British history, the Trial of the Pendle Witches. And we’ll see how paranoia, sectarianism, political ambition, rivalling neighbours and familial betrayal led to trials that saw 10 people executed by hanging for crimes of witchcraft, and in doing so, setting a precedent that would have drastic consequences nearly 80 years later across the pond in Salem, Massachusetts.
