The Forgotten Witch Trials of Connecticut

Before the infamous Salem Witch Trials in Massachusetts, the majority of witch accusations and executions in North America took place in Connecticut. But, the Connecticut Witch Trials were once forgotten by history, and some details, records, and accounts are still largely unknown. Can the terrifyingly absurd witch trials teach us anything about humanity? On this episode of the podcast, we're joined by brother and sister, Sean and Sinead Persaud of Shipwrecked Comedy, who grew up near Salem, absorbing a lot of the witchy history of New England.
