         <description><![CDATA[<div>The Salem witch trial happened in 1692-1693. It started in a village called "Salem village." 2 kids, Betty Parris, age 9 and Abigail Williams, age 11, was sick. They couldn’t be cured. The doctor that came to check on the kids diagnosed them with “Bewitchment”.Soon the symptoms started to spread in the village so there was a special court to find out who was guilty of witchcraft. At first 3 people were accused and arrested for witchcraft. Those people were Sarah Good, Sarah Obsorne and Tituba. Later on more and more people were accused. The first person who was accused of being a witch is Bridget Bishop. She was hanged on June 10th, 1692. The last trail ended in early 1693. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>“Close to 200 people would be accused before the Salem Witch Trials ended the following year, and 20 of them would be executed by hanging over the summer and fall of 1692.” (Pruitt, 2019)This reveals that there were a lot of people getting accused and executed. It happened only in 1 year and there were that many people getting taken to court and hanged. This makes me think that a lot of people were acting suspicious, making them get cited because they seem like witches</div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>The first one is “<strong>The swimming test.”</strong> The people who are accused to be witches would be dragged into water to see if they would drown or float. The people believed that if you were innocent  you would drown but if you were a witch you would float up. </div><div>The second test is the <strong>“Prayer test.”</strong> The people accused would have to read the bible. If they were a witch people believed that they were related to the devil. If they get nervous or  read it wrong the people would think that they are associated with the devil. </div><div>The next one is the <strong>“Touch test.”</strong> They do it by letting the victim go into a room and ask to touch someone under a spell, if nothing happens the person would be proven innocent but if the person comes out of the spell the person would become suspicious. </div><div>After is the <strong>“Witch cakes.”</strong> How it works is that they would let the witch hunter bake a cake, a supernatural cake. The cake would be baked with the victim’s urine, mix it with rye-meal and give it to an animal. If it works the animal would fall into a spell and tell the name of the witch. </div><div>The next one is <strong>“Witch’s Marks.” </strong>They would look at the person who’s accused body to find marks marked by the devil. The mark could be anything. Moles, scars, birthmarks, sores and more. Some villagers would even burn or cut off their birthmark but the scar was enough to prove that they were guilty. </div><div>This one is called “<strong>Pricking and Scratching Tests.” </strong>If the witch marks failed, they would use “pricking.” They would use a needle , a special one, and repeatedly stab and prick the accused person’s flesh until they discovered the right spot. </div><div>The last one is <strong>“Incantations.” </strong>They would let the accused witch, to order the demon that possessed the victim to come out and control. </div>]]></description>

         <description><![CDATA[<div>Liza was tested on the “Swimming test.” The swimming test involves the accused getting tied and thrown into the water. Liza was tested if she drowned or cared or not. If she wasn’t a witch she would drown and feel it. She was thrown into a duck pond. She got a lung full of water, causing her to drown. The “swimming test” actually took place, A  Hingarian woman was tested in the swimming test in 1710 to see if she was a witch or not.</div><div><br><br></div>]]></description>
