Salem Witch Trials

YES! Would I have lived if I would have said that one word, yes? Because of saying no, I was hung. It started off of being accused as a witch. It went on and on, I was in jail I was out I went to court. The torture was agonizing, ripping away from my soul everyday, every moment. I knew I wasn’t a witch, why was everybody accusing me I was. It irked me to think that people in this town went around and told people what they thought about me spreading the gossip that I was a WITCH! What were they thinking; they have to have a mistake between me and someone else. I have to do something about this. I go to court. Are you innocent or guilty; innocent, are you a witch or not; not a witch. The court will have to decide whether im guilty or innocent. I know in my heart what I really and but it seems that every other person in this town seems to think that I am. It’s that time, the court has chosen and you are……….innocent. Thank goodness…but wait, the court has rethought and you are guilty as charged. What! This cant be right…but. But you already said I was innocent. They tell me that I am going to be hung. But…..you already said I was innocent you can’t do that. As im standing on the platform; bristles sticking me in my neck causing drops of blood to rush down my neck caught by the collar of my shirt. I can feel the rope getting tighter and tighter and I start gasping for breath. The floor drops….snap.
Doing this project, I learned something that I have never known. I knew briefly about the Salem witch trials and couldn’t have told you enough to amount to anything. I learned that there actually was a trial determining whether to prove whether the girl is a witch or not. Altogether I thought this activity was very resourceful and helpful, and went along with the Halloween spirit.
