The supposed witches at Salem were hanged rather than burned - a minor point IMO. 19 or 20 people (and 2 dogs!?) were put to death all on the testimony of several hysterical teenage girls. Eventually 150 or so people were accused by the girls of witchcraft. As the number of accused rose, the authorities realized their mistake and stopped the proceedings. Too late for those already put to death, most of whom were women.
