James I’s son, Charles, pretty much ended the hunting and execution of witches. But then the Civil War engulfed England, and Charles lost control. To the radical Puritans of East Anglia, the Civil War was nothing less than the start of the end days when Satan would walk the Earth. So they were expecting to see witches. And into this perfect storm of religious fervor and civil unrest walked an opportunistic young puritan called Matthew Hopkins. He honed witch hunting into an art. Suzannah discovers that he leveraged people’s natural desire to cleanse undesirables, into a lucrative business. He hunted down the poor and the helpless and put them on trial as witches.
