Matthew Hopkins, known as the "Witchfinder General" during the English Civil War, is often credited with the execution of numerous alleged witches. His first recorded victim was Elizabeth Clarke, an elderly woman who was accused of witchcraft in 1644. Hopkins targeted her due to her age and social status, utilizing dubious methods of interrogation to extract confessions and further accusations against others, leading to a notorious witch-hunt in East Anglia.
