138. Witch Trials: Samuel Wardwell (part 2)

Last episode we talked about Samuel Wardwell's life leading up to 1692. Now we must move on to his confession and fate. Where did he receive his unholy baptism? Did this man in black really subvert the whole family and lay with his daughter? Join Sarah and Jeffrey, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they ponder if Goodman Wardwell really could predict the future. Or maybe he just possessed a good nature and jovial sense of humor.
