Hmmm the idea that witches are evil is a myth. It was ignorance that caused women to be burned as witches, not any kind of evil black magic.
So I doubt this story has any truth to it.

I guess you never fell under a witches spell. You are ignorant and stupid to think it doesn't exist. The witches that were burned at Salem, Mass were found guilty of witchcraft. There were practicing black magic and were caught, found guilty and hanged. My grandfather hung them at Bald Hill and testified in his journal that he had never seen such evil as it was in Salem. To say witchcraft is a myth undermines everything between good and evil. Wake up!

Let's start with the facts. During the winter of 1691-'92, several girls in Salem Village, a county-size jurisdiction surrounding what's now the city of Salem, Massachusetts, came down with a strange illness, experiencing pain, fever, and convulsions and behaving oddly. After a doctor suggested that the girls might be under supernatural influence, someone proposed baking a "witch cake" containing urine from the girls, which was then fed to a dog as a test for witchcraft. That set the pot boiling. More girls began having seizures and claiming they'd been approached by specters of their neighbors with wicked intent. Soon a witch hunt was underway. The first three accused were a Caribbean Indian servant named Tituba; Sarah Good, a beggar; and Sarah Osborn, a quarrelsome older woman. The frightened Tituba cracked, confessing that she was a witch and that she and the other accused women had flown on "poles."

any ideal as to what traits they would use to determine if someone was a witch?
