À propos de cet audio

The history of American witches is way weirder than you ever imagined. From bewitched pigs hell-bent on revenge to gruesome 20th-century murders, American Witches reveals strange incidents of witchcraft that have long been swept under the rug as bizarre sidenotes to history.

On a tour through history that's both whimsical and startling, we'll encounter 17th-century children flying around inside their New England home "like geese". We'll meet a father-son team of pious Puritans who embarked on a mission that involved undressing ladies and overseeing hangings. And on the eve of the Civil War, we'll accompany a reporter as he dons a dress and goes searching for witches in New York City's most dangerous neighborhoods.

Entertainingly listenable and rich in amazing details often left out of today's texts, American Witches casts a flickering torchlight into the dark corners of American history.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

Very much enjoyed. My ancestor Rebecca Greensmith/Steele was very in-depth. I've read other telling of her trial, this was much more in depth than others. Loved it and finished the whole book because of the interesting subject matter. The person who described this as rascist is way off base.

Very enjoyable and well researched.

I loved her acting out an exchange between a man and a witch. her witch voice was hilariously wonderful.

Coleen Marlo's voice acting is superb!

Refers to native Americans as Indians and claims that every witch has signed a pact with the devil. This is all bullshit.

Absolutely terrible! Beyond racist.
