THE SALEM WITCH TRIALS
Are you a witch?
By Polina Solovyeva ID4
What people looked for in “ real witches” :
- Warts or moles- Pets, but mostly cats (black cats
were considered to be evil)- If the person knew how to tell
fortunes - If the person knew how to use herbs
for healing
Witches were believed to:-Cause storms-Kill animals-Sink ships-Work for the devil
In January 1692, in a little village called Salem, lived Reverend Samuel Parris and his daughter, Betty, age 6, and adopted niece, Abigail Williams, age 9. One day they started having “symptoms." They screamed, threw things, and had seizures. Two other girls, Ann Putnam and Elizabeth Hubbard had similar symptoms. These were the first “victims” of witchcraft in the colony.
The Doctor Decides What The Problem Is The doctor, William Griggs, said that
the girls were bewitched.
The Solution
Mary Sibley decided to make the so called “Witch Cake” to find out who the witches are. Guess what the cake was made of? The bewitched girls’ urine (or pee), mixed with a rye meal, then cooked over a fire that had a stopped up chimney.

If the dog started to act weirdly, it was then decided that a witch was in the colony. The first people/person to come in the house after the dog ate the cake were considered witches.
What happened next… When the dog ate Mary’s Witch Cake, it
immediately ran outside. Tituba, the Reverend's slave, also went outside because of the strong odor and the smoke.

A moment later Gammer Osburne walked up to Tituba and asked her if she can make her tea from iris roots so that the pain would go away.
COINCIDENCE?
Watch what happens next… So Tituba invites Sarah Osburne and
Sarah Good to come in the house.

THEY ARE ACCUSED OF WITCHCRAFT!
Remember what I told you earlier?
THEY’RE ACCUSED OF WITCHCRAFT BECAUSE OF THE WITCH CAKE. THE DOG ACTED WEIRD, SO THAT MEANS THERE ARE WITCHES. TITUBA, SARAH OSBURNE, AND SARAH GOOD WERE THE FIRST PEOPLE TO COME INSIDE THE HOUSE AFTER THE WITCH CAKE WAS EATEN. SO THAT MEANS THEY’RE WITCHES.
These were the FIRSTaccused people for practicing Witchcraft.
THEY WENT TO JAIL…
SO WHAT HAPPENED TO THE THREE WOMEN? Sarah Good was accused and hanged on
Gallows Hill in 1692. Sarah Osburne was also accused and died in
prison. Tituba confessed. Reverend Samuel Parris
told Tituba that if she confessed he would give her freedom. But instead, when all the prisoners were let go in 1693, he refused to pay her debt to the jail. During Spring, Samuel Conklin came to the prison and paid off Tituba’s debt. She worked for him when she was let go.
It all starts…
It all starts…because of those four little girls
The Salem Witch Trials After the first Salem Witch Trial,
more and more people were accused and arrested for “practicing” witchcraft.

Court of Oyer and Terminer
Governor Phips created the Court of Oyer and Terminer on May 27,1692 because of the amount of accused witches that needed to be tried. This court had the ability to order an execution for a witch immediately. The court was made up of six judges, who were all Governor Phips’s advisors. William Stoughton, the lieutenant governor of Massachusetts, became the Chief Judge of the court. Samuel Sewall, recorded all of the trials and was also one of the judges. Oyer and Terminer means “hear and determine”. The court hanged nineteen people and found twenty seven guilty. On October 29 the court closed because the governor's wife was accused of witchcraft.
