Witch Trials



A Witch Trial is an event in which witches are hunted down by both Witch Hunters and townspeople. The witches are either hung or burned at the stake. There were two major Witch Trials in history; the Salem Witch Trials and the 2009 Witch Trials, which were started by Phoebe Halliwell.
