Ep. 5 - The Inquisition Part 1

In the spirit of Halloween this episode is all about witches. One very popular place people love to visit during the spooky season is Salem, Massachusetts. While Salem is most known for the Salem Witch Trials not many people know that there was a darker much more sinister period of witch trials that began in 1184 and continued until 1826. During this very dark period of history tens of thousands of innocent women were accused of being witches, tortured and murdered by The Church. This period was known as The Inquisition. In Part 1 Jason explores some of the brutal torture devices used to test and get confessions from those accused of being witches. Jason also shares about his own personal experiences of being a witch.
