The salem witch trials started because of a conflict between 2 families who lived in salem village, who argued about whether salem village should separate from salem town. Families in the village began taking sides and, after a couple weeks, the first accusation was made. Some teen girls in salem town were hearing a story from their nanny, Tituba, about black magic. Then, one of the girls started miming that they were being attacked by witches. One by one, the other girls started in. They accused Tituba of using witchcraft on them. The girls were part of the family that wanted to separate from salem village, while Tituba was one of the people who believed that they should not separate from salem village. After this first accusation, more and more people started accusing innocent people of witchcraft. More than 20 people were hung, and over 100 spent time in prison for witchcraft.
