John Proctor was in his mid-30s and had an affair with Abigail Williams, a 17-year-old girl.

In 1692, Tituba was the first to be accused of witchcraft in Salem.

The Salem Witch Trials resulted in the execution of 20 people total.

The majority of the accused witches were women.

200 total men and women were hanged during the Salem Witch Trials.

The court in Salem used spectral evidence, which allowed claims of seeing spirits as valid testimony, despite not having any evidence.

Reverend Parris was a central figure in both The Crucible and the actual trials.

The trials ended because the accusers started accusing powerful people, which led to skepticism.

Elizabeth Proctor was hanged for witchcraft.

John Proctor confessed to witchcraft to save his life but ultimately recanted to maintain his integrity and he did not want to break the 10 commandments by lying.

All of the accused confessed to witchcraft to save their lives.

The hysteria in Salem was sparked by Reverend Samuel Parris's 9-year-old daughter, Betty Parris,

and his 11-year-old niece, Abigail Williams, began displaying unusual behaviors.

The end of the trials was marked by public apologies from accusers.

The Salem Witch Trials last 2 years.
