In 1612, 11 people around Pendle Hill in Lancashire were put on trial for witchcraft, and 10 were hanged.

This was in James I's England, a monarch who hated all things witchy and demonic.

But, like we saw with Salem, two of the main sources of evidence came from hearsay and children's testimonies. Worse still, a nine-year-old girl helped get most of her family convicted!

What happened at Pendle helped pave the way for the Salem Witch Trials. So for the 2024 spooky APHOUT season, let's take a look at one of the most well-known witch trials in English history.
