1692: A Time of Mass Paranoia
In a time when Puritan beliefs struck fear in society,
paranoia swept through the town. By 1692, the God-fearing people of Salem
were so consumed by their reverence they even began naming their children
One-Who-Fears-God and Thou-Shalt-Not-Commit-Adultery.
With all the terror
and harsh times, an inexplicable illness of the Reverend’s daughter could
only be explained with one source: witchcraft. Thus, the dark times of the
Salem Witch Trials began.
