Season 2 Episode 91 Witch Trials: Echoes of Mass Hysteria Then and Now
Can a chilling tale from centuries past teach us about the perils of today's mass hysteria and scapegoating? Join us as we cozy up in our favorite fall sweaters and step into the eerie ambiance of the Salem Witch Trials. We uncover the truths and misconceptions about this infamous historical event, examining the roles of young girls and the puritanical fervor that fueled the chaos. Our conversation bridges the historical context of medieval Europe's fear of witchcraft with the haunting echoes found in modern society's tendencies to scapegoat and marginalize.
As we reflect on how fear and misinformation have shaped societies from the 17th century to present day, we draw unsettling parallels to modern times. The specter of regression looms large as we express concerns over the potential rollback of civil rights and freedoms, invoking images reminiscent of dystopian narratives. With a tense political climate and societal tensions at a peak, we underscore the critical need for dialogue and understanding. Let's explore the past and present, finding lessons that encourage a more informed and empathetic future.
Hey everybody. This is Michelle and this is Julie. Welcome to a blonde, a brunette and a mic podcast. What is our podcast all about, you ask?
Speaker 2:Well, we're 250 something, women with life experience and oh, plenty to say, which is exactly what we're gonna do right now.
Speaker 1:Hey y'all.
Speaker 2:I'm sitting here with Miss Kelly that's me, that's her and we haven't seen each other in. Oh gosh, it's probably been a couple weeks, really. Yeah, I was gone, you were gone. Yeah, then you were gone again.
Speaker 1:Yeah, that's true.
Speaker 2:And then you were gone longer than you're supposed to be. That is true, I did miss her, she missed me, I did miss her. That is true, I did miss her, she missed me, I did miss her. And you know what everybody it is it's fall y'all, it's sweater weather. Oh I hate that and. I hate it.
Speaker 1:I hate the whole sweater weather. It's like all over social media Really yeah.
Speaker 2:I just got a new one. I got to show you, but it makes me look really big and boxy, but it looks so cozy so I haven't taken it back yet yeah, I don't mind the sweaters and the cozy and all of that.
Speaker 1:It's the everything outside. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Well, I noticed the other day. It was like, I don't know if it's because when we get older I've noticed this for the probably last 10 years or so where I can't get warm, it's like the weather's wet, it's like cold wet. It's not like freezing, but it's cold, wet and it's like you can't get warm, so I don't do well with that.
Speaker 1:I have noticed this year, though more than others, and I don't know why, if it's because I'm being more observant or just it's more noticeable the colors in the foliage. I mean, there's not it's not like the Midwest where there's so many different colors, but there's actually a lot in the Pacific Northwest.
Speaker 2:You know what I used to say instead of foliage.
Speaker 1:What Foliage, foliage, foliage.
Speaker 2:I think you might've corrected me on that Foliage, foliage. I don't know, anyway, yeah. Well, it's Halloween time and you know, or harvest festival time, depending upon how you like to look at it. Right, it's Halloween, it's freaking Halloween and I have yeah, Michelle, you're scaring me.
Speaker 1:Well, either that or I mean it could be other sounds, but those are supposed to be scary sounds.
Speaker 2:Well, last year we did a, an episode that was with a bunch of haunted stories.
Speaker 1:Oh yeah, Remember that that was super fun. Real though Real, no, they're real stories.
Speaker 2:Yeah, from our, from our state, and we actually ran across a lot that were from other places too, and we actually ran across a lot that were from other places too.
Speaker 2:But we were talking about this year for Halloween or All Hallows Eve or whatever that it would be kind of cool to learn something different or to share something a little bit different than we had before. Also real, but Michelle and I were talking about the Salem Witch Trials. Yes, and just doing the research on the Salem Witch Trials, it's kind of a little different than I even had thought that it was.
Speaker 1:Yeah, you know. So Well, let me ask you this before we get into what it was. Yeah. What did you think that it was?
Speaker 2:I thought it was?
Speaker 1:What did you know or what did you envision about the Salem Witch Trials?
Speaker 2:Well, first of all, I knew it was. Salem Massachusetts, what Salem Mass. It's called a different. The town's called something different. Now I guess where a lot of this stuff had happened. But there's actually a really concise timeline on when all this happened and I thought it was more like an era, you know, like like there was so much going on where you know, in medieval times, you know, in in europe in the 1400s and 1500s and stuff, there was a lot of concern about witchcraft and about sorcery and things like that.
Speaker 2:I just thought it was part of the same thing you know, and then people, puritans mostly, it sounds like lived in that particular area of Massachusetts. Yeah, and you know we're. They were just more hardcore about it yeah, I figured yeah. But it's actually a little bit different than that, and so, anyway, I just thought it'd be kind of cool that we talked about it because, it's truly stuff that has happened in our history.
Speaker 1:Yeah, just for that reason right there, because I kind of had the same illusions in my head about the Salem witch trials. You know people were killed and you know they were hung and it was a place and it really was a thing, but I didn't really know the history behind it.
Speaker 2:So well, when we were talking about redheads a few episodes ago, we were talking about how redheads were looked upon as being potentially evil or, you know, possessed witchy tendencies you know, those kinds of things. So we did talk about that a little bit, and I imagine that there was some of that going on here too, but that's not really how it started.
Speaker 1:No.
Speaker 2:Yeah, going on here too, but that's not really how it started. No, yeah, so uh, way back in 1490 I was starting to sing an ndiree song. Way back in 1619 but this is 1692 that during the spring of 1692 um there were these girls that were in the salem village in massachusetts and they were claiming to be possessed, you know, by the devil, or were acting really strange, and everybody was scared of them because they thought that they perhaps were possessed by the devil.
Speaker 1:And they accused other local women. Yeah.
Speaker 2:Two. Of witchcraft, you can kind of maybe mention these two. There was two little girls. They were little like 11 and nine yeah, two. So so of witchcraft you can kind of maybe mention these two. There was two little girls, they were little like 11 and nine, nine and 11. Yeah. That, uh, this kind of started out with. So what were they doing?
Speaker 1:There, there was an affliction at that time, not the t-shirt.
Speaker 2:you know the affliction brand, sorry.
Speaker 1:No, I don't know that brand, but okay, but no, not the t-shirt that's the gym tan laundry brand sorry, as if you don't know. Now you know, you don't know now you know um that that were being suffered by a lot of the salem residents and it was a fungus found in rye wheat and other like grain-basedals, but they didn't find that out.
Speaker 2:They didn't find it out till later.
Speaker 1:So, but yeah, so it would cause illusions, vomiting convulsions, those types of things. So this was, yeah, later studied and found. So the idea, or the theory, is that that is probably what was going on. So it seemed as they were possessed.
Speaker 2:So they were probably, you know, making bread or something, and there was this fungus was maybe in something that was like with mold or you know how you get. You know like penicillins made out of mold, that kind of thing, but you could. It was in the. I mean, there's no chemicals.
Speaker 1:It was a fungus, right? Yeah, that was found in those yeah.
Speaker 2:But it was in the grains and things you said, right. So, they were probably making breads or soups or things like that, Because the first two that got sick and started exhibiting these behaviors. It transitioned into several people, and it wasn't all just one family either. It was several different people, young girls, what have you? Probably anybody who was eating this stuff, but nobody knew really what it was Women, men and children.
Speaker 1:Yeah, yeah, so so, as a spring and night.
Speaker 2:Spring of 1990, spring of 1992. Well, hopefully didn't happen then. Spring of 1692. Yeah, yeah. That's important to note because this period, like we were talking before about how the Salem witch trials, we thought was like a thing. Right, it was like a. I just figured it was going on for a long period of time and really it was like a year and a half.
Speaker 1:That a lot of this was happening, then so Well and the hysteria did grow. Yeah, I mean the hysteria because these girls accused several other women of witchcraft, probably, who were exhibiting same symptoms, type of a thing. And as that hysteria spread, there was a special court that they convened in Salem to hear the cases, the general court.
Speaker 2:Yeah, to see what was going on.
Speaker 1:And the first convicted witch. Her name was Bridget Bishop and she was hung that June. She was just a little kid, yeah, and the first convicted witch. Her name was Bridget Bishop and she was hung that June, so she was just a little kid.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, she was. That was the 11 year old, so she was 1112 years old when something like that happened. You know they talked a lot here when I was doing some of this research. This some of the notes that we have here coming from historycom, by the way yeah. And I always thought and I know it's probably from movies and things that I've seen that they were always burned at the stake. They were burned at the stake. Not all of them were A lot of them were hung, but it was.
Speaker 2:you know, you've seen it in movies, where they have like a big public display where everybody in the village watches what's happening and they're cheering on for that. It's just so barbaric. But cheering on for the people to be hung and everything. That's kind of what I envision having happened, but I saw something when I was researching this that showed one of the people that had been accused of the witchcraft. It wasn't the first one, it was down the road maybe six eight months or something was burned at the stake.
Speaker 2:She was lit on fire at the stake and burned right there.
Speaker 1:And More Right After this first case. There were then 18 more, and then it grew to 150 men, women and children that were accused of this over the next several months, and it was Salem's Gallows Hill. Yeah, that just sounds scary.
Speaker 2:Well, that's where they were putting them all and holding them as prisoners, and I think that the holding them as prisoners was I don't know why they were doing that and not killing all of them at one time but they ended up releasing you know some of them too after a while, and I think it's because the hysteria had stepped back. You know, there's probably a lot of different reasons why that had happened, but you know what I think?
Speaker 1:This is just Michelle's perception. So this is we're stepping out of the historycom right now.
Speaker 2:I love it when Michelle gives me her perspective.
Speaker 1:But I mean really, if you think about it, they probably started using this to just get rid of people, yeah, that they didn't know that for other things. Like we're just going to accuse them, that they're accused them of witchcraft.
Speaker 2:Let's get them out of here and they would burn them, kill them, hang them, whatever tests, little tests, and things that they would do, and it's like you might not even be able to pass that. Whatever the test would be, you couldn't really necessarily pass the test and I'd be like, oh, can't pass, I guess you're a witch, yeah. And then they would end up in the gallows or they would end up getting you know hung or burned at the stake or whatever was happening. It's really, when you stop and think about all of this, it's pretty horrific because it's not a lot different than, like what you saw in World War Two as an example, with the mass hysteria towards people that were Jewish for example, and how they were being accused of not being the pure race and all of the things that were happening were just they were rounded up like cattle.
Speaker 2:You know, they weren't treated like human beings.
Speaker 1:Yeah, it's like I mean we're talking about this cause, it's Halloween and witch trials and all of that. But yeah, to your point that you just made. And then in the United States, with slavery and and lynching, hanging, all of of the just same type of thing, these mobs and this whole hysteria of accusing them of things that they would do and just using it as an excuse to kill these people.
Speaker 2:Well, I think some of that might directly relate to when people don't have information, when they are ignorant to something, they create their own story or their own perception of things and then they'll act upon that, because that's the way that they can combat some of that fright that they might have or try to regain control, maybe in a village, of what's going on in the village. They put these courts together Back in 1692, I'm sure that the courts were all made of men and a lot of the people that were killed were women and children, but there were some men, but it was for the most part women is what it looked like to me from one of the things one of the one of the men was.
Speaker 1:They crushed him with rocks, with stones.
Speaker 2:Yeah, yeah, I saw a picture of it like heavy boulders.
Speaker 1:yeah, they just laid him down and put all the boulders on top of him and it was because he refused to say he was guilty, right, he refused to do that at his court trial, so they killed him. I think a lot of people were.
Speaker 2:They were tortured until they finally it's just like anything else, right Until they want to give up. And they say fine, I'm a witch, so they'll stop being tortured, but then they're getting hung. So it was like they were going to get hung anyway.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So they? I mean, they just wanted the pain to stop, I guess, and so they were. They were admitting to things that were not necessarily true.
Speaker 1:Right.
Speaker 2:And coerced, I should say into things that were not necessarily true. So why do you think beyond what we were just talking about? There is like mass hysteria when it comes to things like this. I mean even going back to this time frame being 300 years ago it really was not that long ago.
Speaker 1:Well, there's mass hysteria right now in the United States because of the presidential race.
Speaker 2:I know how many days left.
Speaker 1:Well because it spreads. You know you talk with people and you know you hear the stories and this, that and the other, and it gets missed in translation when somebody else is telling it to somebody else and I don't know.
Speaker 2:There's just we also did an episode on this whole like, uh, fake news and you know deep fakes and all this kind of stuff, and I mean we're kind of diving off of the subject. Yeah, the subject a little bit, but I mean it's a very hysteria yeah hysteria.
Speaker 2:It's something where now we're getting closer and closer to the election and there's I don't want to say panic, but it feels like there is this major push towards getting people that are, quote undecided to make a decision Absolutely, and so there's so much talk about, like, the different groups of people that are undecided. Or they're talking about how black men are going to be voting for Donald Trump because they don't feel like maybe Kamala has done enough for that. I don't really know why that would be. And then the election interference stuff that you are starting to see with ballot boxes. I saw something on the news today about a ballot box was burnt.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I saw something on the news today about a ballot box was burnt. Yeah, it was. I think it was in Georgia. I just really think.
Speaker 3:I know somewhat at times get the label of being a conspiracy theorist. Where's your?
Speaker 1:hat. I mean truly. I mean I am not looking forward to the next three weeks. No at all.
Speaker 2:So then, so do you have any thought processes or predictions on kind of what you anticipate, do you? I mean, if, if I anticipate, mass hysteria.
Speaker 1:One way or another, one way or the other. Yeah, one way or another. It's. There's going to be things out there that are going to be happening. I don't know what they are, but I just think that there's too much hanging in the balance for there not to be one way or the other.
Speaker 2:I do worry when you start seeing a lot of the some of the rights that like civil rights and things like that being pulled back.
Speaker 2:You know, I feel like we've taken a lot of steps back as a country and there's such a level of divisiveness that people aren't really talking to each other. Michelle, it's been like this for eight years. Yeah, it's really I to each other, Michelle, it's been like this for eight years. Yeah, it's really. I mean, four years ago, five years ago, I guess, it was like we were in the heat of a lot of it.
Speaker 2:And then you get into when the last election happened and then the insurrection stuff that happened at the Capitol and the people that died there. Nobody's really talking too much about the fact that these things took place. And it blows my mind that we have someone with the level of ethics that we do running for office and you know he's a convicted felon 34 times over, and it's like you know people make mistakes, yeah, yeah, but 34 times, that's just when you're caught. And then I was saying to you how is that going to work? Because if he's a convicted felon, he, you know like can't go to Canada, Right? So does he just do zoom calls when he's talking to the Prime Minister? I don't know. I mean these are questions that sounds like a silly question. Do you think anybody's gonna even ask that question?
Speaker 1:I don't know. We're just rounding out to the finish line here, so it will be. It'll be interesting. Yeah, I am, and I don't think it's going to be a good feeling.
Speaker 2:I already kind of don't feel that way. I just with the divisiveness yeah. You don't want to have conversations about this kind of stuff with people.
Speaker 3:I mean, at least I don't really want to know me, neither conversations.
Speaker 2:I mean we keep it kind of on the high level, I think, with a lot of the discussions that we're having, because it's easier to do that than and like in social media, I don't post anything about anything.
Speaker 2:And I'm more than willing to talk with somebody about their thought process. When it comes to the issues, whatever they may be, whether they're fiscal issues or whether they're socially related issues. It has nothing really to do with who the candidate is in my mind, except for the fact that I worry that the things that are really important to me are, you know, and to a lot of other people probably too are going to just go by the wayside. I'm worried about Handmaid's Tale life, and I know that sounds very, you know, extreme, but have you watched Handmaid's?
Speaker 1:Tale.
Speaker 2:No, oh yeah, now you're going to want to.
Speaker 1:I've heard a lot about it, I feel all the time, but no, it's never piqued my interest to watch it.
Speaker 2:Well, it's kind of an interesting story because it's talking about it's not post-apocalyptic. Here I go again. I can't say that word Post-apocalyptic, it's not like that. It's more like a fundamental government has taken over, and I don't even know if the beginning of it is that there's some sort of a virus or something that goes around because a lot of the women aren't able to get pregnant, and so people that are able to get pregnant are treated differently than people that are not.
Speaker 2:And so, you know, people are put into you could call it slavery, I guess it is slavery and they're not allowed to go anywhere, they're not allowed to do anything, they're forced to have sex with, you know, the people that are supposed to have babies, that guy, the people in positions of authority, but it's, it's very dark, it's kind of dark, and so obviously that is it's a fiction thing. It's not something that is happening. But and if, if our friend here was to win, it's not like that would happen today or tomorrow. But then you see that you know Project 2025 thing, and I'm just like holy shit, who's to say that this wouldn't happen down the road if we're not careful yeah.
Speaker 2:I don't know. I just I do worry about that. I worry about my future daughter-in-law in Texas. I worry about a lot of things.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:So I think I worry too much.
Speaker 1:Well, if she's not a witch in Salem right, I think we're good.
Speaker 2:Yeah, back to that Back to that. I know it's like we haven't really talked a lot of politics lately. No it's probably, that's probably a good thing. Yeah, because there's just, there's just too much to absorb.
Speaker 1:It's interesting how the word you know, hysteria, came up and then it went down that way in regard to the election. But I think, yeah, it's how that grows is by those situations and you know, you go to your neighbor and whatever, and people making assumptions about things or the hysteria grows when there is a lack of knowledge or there is a fear, and Salem Witch Trials was exactly like that.
Speaker 2:You know, and, as it turns out, you know now in the modern day, we would have been able to ascertain. I would think that you know there's something going on with these girls. They're not possessed. You know they've maybe eaten something or something else has happened, but they didn't really have the ability to do that then.
Speaker 1:There was a local doctor, yeah, there back to in Salem, who some of these girls that were having these fits some of it was violent contortions, uncontrollable outbursts and screaming he diagnosed them with bewitchment. So is that a medical diagnosis? So I'm sure that is part of what that growing hysteria was. Well, you know, and then it took off Okay.
Speaker 2:So, when you think about it, though, this doctor has potentially created this entire thing by not knowing the answer to the question and basically creating an answer.
Speaker 1:Yeah.
Speaker 2:And so the hysteria has built on that. When you think about it that way, that's, that's pretty scary. Yeah, that one doctor, william Griggs, william Griggs, william Griggs, motherfucker, started the Salem witch trials.
Speaker 1:As the story continues in late February. This is of the next year, so 1693. This started in 1692. So 1693, there were arrest warrants issued. There was Caribbean slave oh yeah, tatuba, along with two other women that the girls accused. They accused them of bewitching them Right.
Speaker 2:So they were trying to get themselves off the hook, probably. And then these slaves are coming from another country that nobody really knows anything about, way back in 1619. I'm thinking slavery started here in 1619 on the east coast and I only. I'm singing a song in my head but so this is you know how many, 70 years later later something like that.
Speaker 2:but people were still coming, probably, and their witchcraft was or I don't say witchcraft, but maybe it was witchcraft but there was a lot of that coming from Africa. We didn't have Christianity, we didn't have all that stuff there. So when people were coming here, they're coming here with their own beliefs and obviously instilling those maybe in the people that were around them. Or the people who were enslaved had knowledge of different things that were foreign to the people that were here.
Speaker 2:the Puritans that were enslaving them kind of a thing, and I think that they maybe were afraid for that. So, and you know, it's very easy to place the blame for some of these things on someone else, as opposed to your kid, right In 1692, even.
Speaker 1:So that timeline, then you know February of 1692, that's when all the accusations began, right, and then next month move forward, that's when all the hysteria started spreading. In April of that same year, the first man was accused, okay, and then by May people were dying in jail. Yeah.
Speaker 1:At that point in June to August, that's when the trials started happening and hanging started happening. People were then being killed and in the fall of that year September, October that's kind of when you were talking before about how it was kind of dying off, it was becoming unpopular People weren't quite so sure about everything that was happening, probably because so much of it was growing and, like I said, I think probably they were just using this as a reason to get rid of people in some ways.
Speaker 2:So they did release a bunch of people that had been left in jail, but nobody ever was brought back to being whole like they were accused of something, so they probably lived their life with that hanging over their head. Yeah you know, because no one ever said oops, my bad. You know, they just let them out of jail and get back into the popular society and can you imagine like if something like that happened now?
Speaker 2:Well, it's not. I mean, if you think about it, it's what would be, something that would be similar, that would happen in today's day and age, not about being a witch, but you. You know, someone is canceled or shunned from society, or it would be a similar to something like that, because you wouldn't see people burning other people at the stake no, that's why.
Speaker 1:That's why I say could you imagine if something like that happened? Now, of course, we're in a time where it wouldn't, but that's why I'm just like bringing it back to that countries it might not be that way.
Speaker 2:true, they could very well, well, well, well in some countries you get, you know, you get in trouble for not covering up your face. Get your hand cut off if you steal.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 2:I guess there's probably not a lot of theft going on in Iran or wherever that's at.
Speaker 1:I mean it works, yeah, not that I'm not that.
Speaker 2:I'm saying that it's a good yeah. So well.
Speaker 1:I don't really have anything more to say I just thought I'd throw that timeline out there, just, you know, as we're wrapping up, just to kind of see how year and a half, how it started, what it was, what people did, what some of the things were from. So you know, some illness that was happening from grain-based food and accusations and not a fun time no, not a fun time, and no one there really to protect you.
Speaker 2:And everybody was probably scared of each other and they're probably worried that they may have some kind of like twitch in their eye because they're tired and someone's going to think they're a witch.
Speaker 1:Yeah, I mean seriously, probably wasn't a lot of you know public going out and different things. You seriously, there probably wasn't a lot of public going out and different things.
Speaker 2:There are Puritans. I don't think they did a lot of that. Yeah, probably were home, a lot Probably home a lot yeah. All right. Well, all of you people out there getting ready for Halloween hopefully you have a costume. Mm-hmm, bella is going to be her own version of a Salem witch. Yes, and she's created this costume that she hasn't even quite decided what it's going to be yet.
Speaker 1:I'll take a picture show y'all, we'll see, we'll put it up there and.
Speaker 2:I I'm not a big Halloween person as a general rule, like I'm one of those bah humbug people early and I turn off all my lights and I don't want anybody coming to my door because I'm worried they're going to slip and fall and then someone's going to sue me, and then someone's going to sue me. I mean, that's really what's going on out here.
Speaker 1:Is that the day and age we live in now?
Speaker 2:Well, not only that but I just don't feel like talking to anybody yeah no, we don't get many around here. No, we don't. When we were in Mill Creek we would get like, oh gosh, 200, 250. That's because you were in a good neighborhood.
Speaker 1:Yeah, people get dropped off there.
Speaker 2:We were in the neighborhood that my kids wanted to trick-or-treat in, so, yeah, we would take them over to the mill creek area and drop them off and they would come home with regular size candy bars not just the bite size the last year that we were there, I got all the regular size candy bars and then, um, and they were gone like within just minutes practically, yeah, it's like and then so I would just take the rest of whatever I had and I stuck it out on the front porch. Take whatever you want. Yeah leave some for the next person. Yeah literally these kids, probably 13 year old kids or something. You're coming just dumping the whole thing out.
Speaker 1:Do you ever bet ever have your bag of candy stolen when you were a kid?
Speaker 2:No, no, no, no. But you know what I did with my own is I, I would, I would let them fill up like a big cup with all of their favorites, oh yeah, and then I would pay, give them money for the rest? Oh, because I didn't want them eating at all oh really no oh, I would.
Speaker 1:I would just like dump your bags out, eat whatever you want, as much as you want for the night, like we just power ate it for a couple days yeah so I could be done with it oh yeah instead of spreading it out, no, just just eat that shit. Be done with it. Oh yeah, instead of spreading it out, no, just just eat that shit.
Speaker 2:Be done with it they got their cup full you know yeah and I saved. I'm not gonna lie, I've course I mean, I ate plenty too.
Speaker 1:Yeah, what is your favorite candy?
Speaker 2:uh, I would say like well, I really don't eat a lot of that stuff now.
Speaker 1:But back in the day. What was your favorite?
Speaker 2:milky ways or the hershey bars, yeah, or maybe reese's butter cups. Those are the ones that might go. I would never have like the sweet tart, I don't like any of that kind of gummy bears, I don't like that stuff.
Speaker 1:You like stuff with chocolate?
Speaker 2:I like all kinds of chocolate.
Speaker 1:Yes, everything chocolate.
Speaker 2:Everything chocolate.
Speaker 1:I liked Almond Joys Really and Snickers.
