Tonight, you’re not just hearing history — you’re living it.
Step into the cracked boots of a woman accused of witchcraft in 1600s Europe — a time when paranoia burned hotter than reason and justice was mostly performance with a body count. From whispered rumors to show trials, sleep deprivation to the executioner’s blade, this is what it actually meant to be called a witch — whether you were one or not.
Told in immersive second-person narration, this slow, darkly dry bedtime story pulls you through the entire ordeal: the gossip, the torture, the confession, the names you’re forced to give — and the final walk to the scaffold.
