Lesson 29: What If We Had A Chat With 3 Witches - Part 1

The infamous Salem witch trials began during the spring of 1692, after a group of young girls in Salem Village, Massachusetts, claimed to be possessed by the devil and accused several local women of witchcraft.

This week we are joined Hilary Whitmore, Kanani Soleil, and Courtney Weber. All three practice witchcraft as well as host a podcast called That Witch Life. During part 1, we take a deep dive into modern-day witchcraft and discuss some of the misinformation about it as well as dreams and death. Part 2, discussing the What If, will be released on their podcast at a later date where we discuss the Salem Witch Trails and what if they captured real witches.
