The picture is misleading - looks like a photo from the late 1800s.

tasha, Wher I live, a small town in Merseyside.UK. there's a Ducking Stool, inside a local pub. The nearby car park, is believed to have been the pond, where Witches were 'ducked'!

In every age of our history, one group of ppl get hysterical about the beliefs of others or the actions of a small subgroup that don't define the whole and BINGO! A new 'witch hunt begins.
Unfortunately we get bigger and more terrifying ways of carrying them out as we get more 'advanced. So Sad.

All these men testifying against her. How about women folk? Seems like a conspiracy to get her out of the way and her husband was weak minded in giving in to the pressure
Player Say what!?
Fredrico, Some responses here indicate it occurred in England as well.

Superstition. Second husband must be mentally unstable.

LolliNannaPop,
I don't know, there seems to be confusion about these words: witch, wizard, warlock, and others like sorcerer or mage.
which are good/ evil,
which are male/ female.

The rag doll they confiscated from Bishop was the beginning of her development in the BARBIE doll....And maybe she was just studying to make a BARBIE doll.... But many people envied her so she was judged to be a WITCH CRAFT and hung to death...LOL
