In the bitter winter of 1692, fear took root in the quiet village of Salem. Whispers of witchcraft spread like wildfire through the Puritan streets, twisting faith into paranoia and piety into vengeance. What began with the strange fits of a few young girls soon consumed an entire community — neighbors accusing neighbors, families turning on blood. The gallows creaked under the weight of hysteria, and the devil’s name was spoken in every home.
This week on Beyond the Campfire, Will and Steve step into the smoke of history’s most infamous witch hunt. They peel back the layers of mass panic, political control, and religious zealotry that fanned the flames of the Salem Witch Trials. From spectral evidence and secret pacts to the haunted grounds that still draw the curious today, the duo uncover the chilling truth behind the madness — and question whether something darker than fear might have been at work.
As dusk falls over the cursed town, one question lingers in the cold New England air: were the people of Salem victims of their own terror… or did they truly face a force they couldn’t explain?
