  2. Salem, a town, was first settled in 1626. Puritans arrived approximately 2 years later. Puritans settled in Massachusetts because they wanted to worship as they believed. They wanted to purify the Church of England and in England, the Puritans didn’t have the power to purify the church so the Puritan leaders decided to create their own governments in Massachusetts.There rules would be based on their religious ideas. They hoped that their settlement would be successful that the English would finally give in, and accept their ideas and beliefs. BACKGROUND Puritan colonists on their way to church. The Puritans believed that God chose a number of people to go to heaven after they pass away. During the lives of these people, they were supposed to follow the teachings in the Bible and although others may not be part of this, they should still act as if they were. Puritans followed the teachings of the Bible.

  3. WHO IS HE? WHAT DOES HE DO? SATAN LET'S FIND OUT . . . WHAT DOES HE LOOK LIKE?

  4. A BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF . . . SATAN • Satan was believed to be real by the Puritans and they thought that Satan tried to force people to defy God and the teachings of the Bible. • He was defined as an angel who defied God and spread evil on Earth, or the devil. • Puritans also believed that witches were the servants of Satan(the devil) and that they helped Satan carry out his evil work. The picture shows Satan waking his troops.

  5. A BRIEF INTRODUCTION OF . . . WITCHES • are men and women who make deals with Satan. • People who promise to worship Satan and work for him. • received special powers, such as the ability to fly or cast harmful spells on their enemies Puritan ministers stated that women or females were more likely to become witches. They thought this because they are convinced that females were morally delicate. Also, they stated that females can be more provoked to shun God and honor Satan instead. This is what a witch could look like in 1626.

  6. WITCHCRAFT As you all know, if there are witches, then there is witchcraft. Now, let me give you a riddle. “If Satan was an enemy of God, then what are witches? The answer? Witches are also enemies of God, DUH! In 1641, witchcraft became illegal due to a new English law. Colonial leaders frequently didn’t eliminate people who were accused of being a witch because they knew that people might unfaithfully accuse others as witches. Also, discovering solid evidence that goes against accused witches was difficult. This picture shows a girl accused as a witch. This girl looks creepy and I would also think that she is a witch!

  7. AND NOW THE STORY OF . . .

  8. ACCUSED WITCHES

  9. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES Around January 20, 1692, an unknown disease struck Abigail Williams and Betty Parris. A minister in the community of theirs wrote that they looked as if they’d been “bitten and pinched by invisible agents.” The arms and backs of the girls had been twisted in unnatural ways.

  10. WHAT WAS THE REASON TO THIS UNKNOWN DISEASE? WITCHES THE ANSWER: How about this? YES! NOPE This type? TRY AGAIN!

  11. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES A town doctor said that the girls were bewitched. The girls blamed Tituba, their family’s slave for bewitching them. Tituba did admit that she learned quite a bit about witchcraft, such as spells from her former master, but she swore that she wasn’t a witch. To make matters worse for Tituba, two more girls that show signs of being bewitched also accused Tituba. Tituba This picture shows Tituba telling witchcraft tales to children.

  12. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES Another accused witch was Sarah Good. Her neighbors claimed that she was a witch that bewitched them and their animals. (How nice of her neighbors!) Although she was accused of being a witch, she was not arrested.

  13. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES Sarah Osborne was also accused of being a witch. She and her husband were in an argument with Thomas Putnam. Putnam’s daughter, Ann, was an afflicted girl. Sarah Osborne’s house

  14. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES On February 29, 1692, Thomas Putnam and a couple of other men formally accused Tituba, Sarah Good, and Sarah Osborne of witchcraft. The most astonishing answer from the questioning came from Tituba. She said that Satan came to her and requested her to aid him. She also stated how Satan sometimes emerges as a dog, hog, and black cats and rats. She also said that she, Osborne, and Good had signed a book in blood, representing that they had made a deal with Satan. The accused “witches” were then brought in to be questioned. Sarah Good opposed to the idea that she was a witch and that she abused the afflicted girls. Instead, she accused Sarah Osborne of witchcraft. Sarah Osborne also opposed to the idea that she was a witch and instead suggested that maybe Satan made himself look identical to her when he did his evil work.

  15. FIRST ACCUSED WITCHES Tituba answer were so shocking that the news of her answers spread all around Salem quickly. People in the town of Salem began to say that they had seen ghost-like images of Sarah Good, Sarah Osborne, and Tituba. The bewitched girls also talked about seeing ghosts that flew around and tried to harm them. They also started to accuse even more people of being witches. Ann Putnam described how one woman often appeared around her and afflicted pain towards her by pinching her and other various methods.

  16. A GRUESOME DEATH 80 years old Giles Corey, was accused of being a witch. He ignored the questioning and stood silently. As a result, they punished him by placing a wooden board on his chest as he lay on the ground. The officials would place stones on the board continuously until the weight killed Corey.

  17. TRIALS • Massachusetts Governor Phips called for a court to decide if the accused people were actually witches in late May. • Witches were not allowed to speak in court because of the English law. They were not trusted to speak the truth since they didn’t worship God. • Confessed witches avoided the death sentence and instead, they had to stay in jail. • Witches that do not admit to their crimes were killed. This is why innocent people began to confess to being witches. They didn’t want to be accused as guilty and die. After some time though, some confessed witches later say that they aren’t witches. • Ministers were also accused.

  18. AND NOW THE...
