The Witch Trials of Wales — Gwen Ferch Ellis, Pendle & Salem
🔥 The whispers of witchcraft have never truly gone away. From the valleys of Wales to the moors of Pendle and the hysteria of Salem, history is filled with women accused, condemned, and silenced.
In this episode of Dark Wales Tours, we uncover the haunting story of Gwen Ferch Ellis — the first woman legally executed for witchcraft in Wales — and trace how the witch hunts spread across borders, oceans, and centuries.
But this isn’t just a story of the past. Witch hunts are alive today — in cancel culture, in online mobs, in the way fear and suspicion still destroy lives. The line between superstition and survival, between manifestation and “modern magic,” is thinner than we think.
⚠️ This is more than history. It’s a warning.
