Witch Trials is a historical-legal phenomenon within the study of witchcraft beliefs, referring to a series of judicial proceedings in early modern Europe and colonial America in which individuals were accused, prosecuted, and often punished for the alleged practice of witchcraft, distinguished by their reliance on superstition, religious doctrine, and coercive interrogation methods rather than empirical evidence.
