Salem, Massachusetts, 1692. A community stands accused of witchcraft, and in the mood of fear and recrimination that quickly develops men denounce their neighbours, truth is perverted by superstition, and an innocent word or deed can be distorted into damning evidence of guilt.
The voice of reason is drowned by the rising tide of hysteria as events acquire their own momentum and run out of control.
