the would either get hung or they would burn the witches.
Very painful deaths
People were scared of what witches could or would do with their power. They considered all witches evil, which was not, in fact, the case. Indeed, there were evil witches, but there were also good witches.
Witches were to be believed evil in the old days. They would usually burn a witch to the stake or just hang them.The accused "witches" were treated terrible. The people of Salem thought that if someone was a witch, the witch would do horrible things. The people also thought that they should get rid of the witches, so they would drown people who they thought was a witch and if you were you would be able to undrown yourself with your powers and it you weren't you were just led there to drown!
Simply because witches are mysterious and not like most people, and people often fear things that are different to them and which they know little about. Also, most would agree that witches usually bear an association with evil and magic, which people find unnerving.
Probably witches.
Well, many people have probably been told they wouldn't be king by "witches," but the most famous example would probably be Banquo in Shakespeare's "Macbeth" who was told that his children would be kings though he would not, by the three witches who prophesy throughout the play.
witches don't exist but the people killed because people thought they were witches are Innocent in movies and films they are evil
Because at the time, the only explanation for extraordinary ideas and accomplishments was witchcraft. So people accused of witchcraft or knowing a witch would either be killed or forced to reveal the location of other witches (which they lied about because witches are fictional)
Normally, people would not blame the witches. They just said things and Macbeth reacted by doing things. The witches can only be held to blame if you think that Macbeth had no choice in his actions. But if he had no choice, how come the witches do have a choice?
because witches were very scary then people didnt think witches were very nice
they believe that they were evil and crazy and that they live alone in the woods with no honey moon cause they were too scared to go by that they would cast a spell on people hahaha kiss witches butts....................................
There were no real witches in salem.
yes. people accused of being witches were burned at stake, sometimes, people thought that witches could take the form of cats, so if you saw a cat more then three times, and it was the same, the cat would be found and burned at stake.
