◎简　　介　

Unsolved History is history the way it was! Through detailed examination of archaeological and forensic evidence, existing photographs, authentic artifacts, and carefully selected interviews from eyewitnesses and experts – events are reconstructed and historical questions are finally answered.

When a strange epidemic swept through the Puritan community of Salem, Massachusetts in 1692, doctors were dumbstruck. Symptoms like repeated convulsions and the constant uttering of strange, alien phrases seemed to point to only one answer – witchcraft. What followed was one of the most notorious and darkest years in early American history. More than 100 people were imprisoned and 37 were killed because of their purported involvement with witchcraft.

Investigators examine the 17th century groundswell of anti-witch sentiment from a scientific viewpoint, testing some of the theories that have been proposed over the years. Researchers test whether mass psychosis triggered by moldy bread could have been responsible for the hysteria, or whether an outbreak of encephalitis – an inflammation of the brain that often causes fever and delusions – could have been the culprit. Historians point to severe stress among the populace caused by the repressive Puritan way of life, while others suggest a more mundane cause: The witch trials may have been an attempt to seize land from the wealthy accused.

Finally, experts examine some of the "tests" and "interrogation methods" used to extract confessions from the accused, revealing the ineffectiveness of these methods and – more importantly – what their savagery says about the ability of the human body to withstand undue stress.
