In the German town of Nrdlingen in 1593, innkeeper Maria Hll found herself accused of witchcraft. She was arrested for questioning, and denied the charges. She insisted she wasnt a witch through 62 rounds of torture before her accusers finally released her. Other accused witches werent so lucky." Why did these witch hunts occur? Brian A. Pavlac digs into this horrific chapter in human history.
