140. Laurie Cabot (part 1)
No, victims of the 1692 Salem Witch Trials were not actual witches. But fast forward three centuries and you'll find the city is home to more than 5,000 practicing witches. Only one of them, however, can claim the title "Official Witch of Salem." Her name is Laurie Cabot and she helped create the Witch Mecca you see today. Join Sarah and Jeffrey, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they delve into the life of this incredible woman - which is ongoing by the way (Laurie is turning 92 this year). When did her abilities begin? How did she end up in Salem? Would you have jumped at the chance to take after-school witchcraft classes at her house in the 1970s?
