Why are the Salem Witch Trials considered a unique period of hysteria in American history?

English
1 answer:
timurjin [86]2 years ago
7 0
Evidence points to several factors that may have contributed to the mass hysteria: “An influx of refugees from King William's War with French colonists, a recent smallpox epidemic, the threat of attack from Native Americans, a growing rivalry with the neighboring seaport of Salem Town, and the simmering tensions. Despite what some people believe, the Salem Witch Trials are an important part of history because innocent people lost their lives, it could have been prevented, and something similar could happen again if people aren't careful. The trials occurred in colonial Massachusetts between 1692 and 1693.

drek231 [11]
I was sitting down on the plane at the window seat . I looked out the window and I froze. I knew I was afraid of heights, but not this much. I wanted to sit by my Mom, but I can’t because apparently I have a act like a adult because little brother got to sit next to my mom. By little I mean born 1 minute after me, because we’re twins. I asked the man seating beside me,” Excuse me, Sir.” However instead of getting up and letting me walk he replied,”What’s the reason, kid,” in a deep tone, as if he was mad at me . I said,” None of your business.” That really got to him so he put a bag on top of me. I was about to scream, but he got this tape from thin air and taped my mouth. When we got off the plane, he took me. That’s when the security guard caught him off guard and now he got arrested, and I reunited with my family.
