Question

If Abigail had not been caught dancing, would the witch trials still have been held? Is she to blame for starting this? Explain.

Answer 1

I think it still would have been held because Abigail was not the only one responsible for the Salem Witch Trial. In fact there were many other people to blame. For example Mrs. Putnam who drew on witchcraft after the death of her children or Reverend Parris whose own niece had been caught dancing in the forest.
