    They didn’t barely kill him. He was dead for like a weekend. They killed the witches properly.

    Except for the Sanderson sisters. They took a couple tries.

      Sounds like a skill issue. If the witches were any good at witching, they wouldnt have died either.

      The Salem trials came later. I wonder if there discussion was like Townsperson 1: “So this woman with the wart, should we just nail her to a couple pieces of wood”

      Townsperson 2: “Nah man, remember the last guy we did that with. Didn’t take”

      Townsperson 1: “Riiiight. So, wood, nails, and a bonfire then?”

      Townsperson 2: Yeah that should do it"
