That's not really a question, but it was obviously in 1690, and The story started off with lady's dancing in the forest, and then people believing they are witches, and then they go and start accusing people that who they have a grudge against, such as Abagail Williams, accused John Proctor's wife that she was a witch so that she could have the chance to have another affair with John Proctor. Than the hole town is scared of being a witch and the only way to get out of the accusations was to accuse other people of being a witch or admitting it. Hope this helped.
Old Salem, Massachussetts.
The Salem witch hunts happened in the English colony of Massachusetts, in what is now the USA.

Unlike most European witch hunts, the Salem panic did not convict the stereotypical witch evey time. In Europe, witch hunts began when someone died unexpectedaly or something close to that happened and a person who fit the traditional view of a witch was blamed and executed. In Salem, the girls called out on people that cannot all be connected by one trait.
Witches were regarded as supernatural agents of evil.

You have made no sense. The Salem witch trials occurred in the colony of Massachusetts and was the latest in a string of witch hunts in Europe and America. It never spread to Europe or any other state.
No, they were just the lastest in the long string of witch hunts in the Christian world over the centuries prior to 1692. In fact, it was one of the smallest.
The same way the Salem witch hunts in 1695 honored killings of witches.
