## Description

Something wicked was brewing in the small town of Salem, Massachusetts in 1692. It started when two girls, Betty Parris and Abigail Williams, began having hysterical fits. Soon after, other local girls claimed they were being pricked with pins. With no scientific explanation available, the residents of Salem came to one conclusion: it was witchcraft! Over the next year and a half, nineteen people were convicted of witchcraft and hanged while more languished in prison as hysteria swept the colony. Author Joan Holub gives readers and inside look at this sinister chapter in history.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Easy read and very interesting.
*by  on Reviewed in the United States October 22, 2020*

Great read and easy.Love the info. Don't know how accurate it is but. Its a wonder how people believe in so many weird things and then punish each other for it as if they are any better.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Love this
*by  on Reviewed in the United States January 8, 2026*

I love this series! I've bough numerous other titles to donate to my child's school library

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ These always do a great job of condensing information while staying interesting
*by  on Reviewed in the United States October 24, 2018*

My daughter loves all the Who Was books, and is excited about starting What Were/Was books. These always do a great job of condensing information while staying interesting. They are understandable for elementary aged kids without being patronizing. Would definitely recommend.
