Let's Chat!!

In this spine-chilling episode of C3: Crystals, Cauldrons & Cocktails- After Dark, we’re delving into one of the most harrowing chapters in history—the witch trials. From the fear and superstition that sparked them to the brutal torture and executions that followed, we’ll explore how thousands of innocent people were accused of sorcery and condemned in the name of religion and power. We’ll journey through the dark streets of Salem, the deadly courts of Europe, and the terrifying accusations that tore communities apart.

What drove these hunts? How did religious and political fervor play a role? And why were so many women—especially those on society’s fringes—targeted? We’ll unravel the complex forces behind the hysteria and the devastating human toll it took. Join us as we shed light on the methods used to identify witches, the infamous *Malleus Maleficarum*, and the gruesome realities of the trials.

This is more than just history—it’s a cautionary tale of fear, power, and injustice that still resonates today. Grab your drink, light a candle, and tune in for a haunting look at the witch hunts that terrorized the world for centuries.

Until then, Stay Witchy!!
