Mr. Hudson uses surviving records to explore the topic of witchcraft in colonial Virginina. Like their northern neighbors, Virginians shared a common belief in the supernatural. As witchcraft mania swept through Salem, Massachusetts in 1692, it resulted in significant fascination that tended to overshadow the truth of what actually happened in the other colonies. Utilizing surviving records, author, historian and screenwriter Mr. Hudson dispels many of the myths of Colonial Witchcraft.
