À propos de ce contenu audio

This bonus episode is a dramatized retelling of real events from the North Berwick witch trials of the 1500s.


While it’s based on historical records, some dialogue and perspectives have been fictionalized to help immerse you in the time period and emotional weight of the story.

This episode also contains referenced to torture, executions, and the persecution of women - which may be distressing for some listeners.

We board a royal ship and step into the fear that took hold of a king’s mind, and into the trials that shaped witchcraft law across the Atlantic. The spark that would one day reach the Virginia colony, and a woman named Eleanor Neale.
