If you need an explanation other than "because they were morons"... Salem was a Puritan settlement. The Puritans, like nearly all other Christians at the time, believed in demonic forces, of which witchcraft was merely one manifestation.
The Trials were conducted in the towns of Salem Village, Salem Town, Andover, and Ipswich. The accused were said to be Witches from the counties of Essex, Suffolk, and Middlesex, in Massachusetts, New England.
