The Salem Haunted Trail
The salem haunted trail a place where many people go missing. Six people to be exact. One for each year the place has closed. People said it wasn't always like this it was fun and exciting but now it's just plain terrifying.

Some say that the last place they see the missing people at is right before they enter the corn maze. The six bodies that have went missing were never found. Have you ever thought the actor chasing you with the chainsaw would/could kill you? What if he was the murderer!

This is what most people thought. They even got the actor fired with a vote of all the people in town yet people still went missing. Days went by and it was time for the haunted trail to reopen for the 7th time.

    Both witch hunts in Salem in 1692 and McCarthy's search for Communists in the 1950’s are similar they both involved conflict and superstition. William had 205 people on his list of people who are communists. Just like in the Salem Witch hunt they didn’t have proof that the where witches other than that they were acting up but that didn’t show that they were witches. McCarthy didn't have proof that the communist that where on the list, he didn’t have proof if they were communists or not. With McCarthy looking for communists, surprisingly more than 2,000 employees lost their jobs. In the Salem Witch Hunt a lot of people were accused and they didn't know if the people who were accused where witches or not instead of people losing their jobs, people…

    Witchcraft is understood by being a religion that includes reverences for nature, and belief in rights of others and includes own spirituality. People that practice witch craft now focus on doing good things and helping others. They also refuse to be connected to the devil. Their beliefs go back to ancient times, long time before the advent of Christianity. In current culture witches have been confused with the belief they have black pointy hats, green faces with broom sticks. This is often how witches are portrayed in movies and…

    A legitimate cause for the accusations may result from a mental disorder. In the article The Witchcraft Trials in Salem: A Commentary, it is acknowledged that, “The cause of her symptoms may have been some combination of stress, asthma, guilt, boredom, child abuse, epilepsy, and delusional psychosis” (Linder). Many of the possible symptoms may have caused the outbreak, yet delusional psychosis is more sensible. The form of a mental disorder causing the symptoms is a probable cause. The people of Salem were completely oblivious to the additional causes of the accusations. Salem could have avoided several lives may have been saved if some form of common knowledge was used.…

    salem witch trial

    Salem witch trial is a very significant part in the American history. There were various reasons why it took place. When I first learned about it I was very surprised how something like this could have happened in the US. How it took lives of 40 people. Salem witch trial occurred in colonial Massachusetts between 1692 and 1693. It started with a rivalry between people when Reverend Parris’s daughter and niece started having fits and doctor blamed it on supernatural. This small event leads to a very violent and terrible event in the history. According to colonial America video 344 people were accused in colonial period, and 80% were female and 50% men which were relatives of the accused witches. Females were more accused than men. On the other hand, there is a huge difference between in New England Colonies. In 1647-1663, 75 persons were accused, and 15 were hanged from them. It makes difference when we looked in 1692, 200 were accused and 19 were hanged. Many Salem village farmers wanted to separate from the town Salem. Because they had same thought regarding small and big city living. They thought town had more crime than village areas. Like, Revered Samuel Paris daughter, Elizabeth Parris, and his niece, Abigail Williams, had trouble. They had some problem, and he shows them to the doctor. When doctor didn’t found any kind of physical problem, and he decided one of them is witch like in witchcraft. After he asked from those girls, and they pointed the finger to “Tituba.” She is jailed. After that they were going to accuse other women of witchcraft like homeless Sarah Good, and Sarah Osborn. From fourteen to sixteen century, estimated 40-50,000 people were executed in witchcraft. The unusually authorities actually encouraged the people to be afraid from each other. If person was accused as a witch, then they had to provide the concrete evidence. In the 1486, the book “MALEFICARM”…

    The Old Spanish Trail was a series of trails from Santa Fe, New Mexico, to Los Angeles, California. The three routes were called the Main Route, the Armijo route, and the North Branch.The trails went through New Mexico, Colorado, Utah, Nevada, and California. These trails were used for trade, including Native American goods of blankets and baskets for horses and mules from California. I choose this topic because it was a major trade route from 1829 to 1848. This is a huge part in our Western history because it helped start developing the south western part of the United States. Since this trail was fairly long I wanted to know what it was like to travel The Old Spanish Trail.…

    The Salem Witch Trials of colonial Massachusetts is an infamous event known throughout the entirety of the world. This is a result of the unnecessary executions of a collection of people. The bloodshed of the number of citizens is referred to as unnecessary for the reason that the trials were supposedly surrounded by paranormal activity. Proof that the accused legitimately participated in demonic activities such as witchcraft was incapable of being found. Although it may be factual that it could not be proven if paranormal activity took place, the government still seized the lives of a variety of innocent individuals. The Salem witch trials are considered heinous for the reason that 20 innocent people were penalized for offenses they did not…

    Breaking the law was no joke back in colonial times. Punishment were extremely harsh. The convict will be punished by physical pain or sometimes death. Do to the poor judgment from the court's most of the accused were innocent. Even the defendants of the accused were punished, if the accused were proven guilty.
