Salem Magic and More!
Why the focus on Salem? When a friend mentions Salem, Massachusetts, you probably think of the Salem Witch Trials of 1692 or Halloween. Salem can be an enigma. Closer to home, my husband, David, and his sister, Laura, used to talk about an ancestor condemned during those infamous witch trials. They stopped talking about her when they found out she was an accuser.
But Salem is more than its witch-hanging past or today’s campy celebration of all things Halloween. Come with me to share the magic of Salem, and beyond, via guest interviews, book reviews, and fun facts and fictions presented for your entertainment.
