As far as we all know, people always liked to watch prosecutions, murders and violence. This is the same reason behind it as of why people watch action movies. I think the roots of this interest is in our wild origin - people interested in watching bloody shows such as fights between people and animals or and people and other people just because the experience they may receive by watching may help them to survive in a fight they will have themselves one day.

How did they kill Salem witches?

They usually hung, burnt, drowned, or cut them to death. EDIT: At Salem, they only hung the convicted witches. Burning was a Continental European punishment. Drowning was part of the water test and if you drowned you were innocent. And "cut" I can only explain as beheading. The only person accused of witchcraft to be beheaded was Anne Bolynn, and that was because she was convicted of treason.
