In 1688, Tituba and her husband, John, are sold to a Boston minister and sent to the strange world of Salem, Massachusetts.

When the reverend’s suggestible young daughter, Betsey, starts having fits, the townsfolk declare it to be the devil’s work.

Will she be judged guilty of witchcraft and hanged?
