Witch trials were held for someone that was accused of being a witch where they used their own methods to determine if they were a witch or not. A lot of people would be accused of being a witch if they had been in a fight and they would falsely accuse them of witchcraft. Some of the women at these trials would complain that they felt pain as if they were being pinched. The way they figured out if the woman was a witch was to strip her completely naked and check for a third nipple. They believed that the third nipple was used to feed demon babies. By the end of these trials, 200 people were put in jail after being accused and 19 men and women were hung after being convicted.
