Bigpimpinainteasy says the award goes to 11 year old Abigail Williams! For the best acting the world has ever seen in the history of Salem, Massachusetts! Supporting actresses are Elizabeth Booth (18), Susannah Sheldon (18), Mary Warren (20), Sarah Churchill (20), Elizabeth Hubbard (17), Mary Wolcott (17), Mercy Lewis (17), Ann Putnam (12), and Betty Parris (9). All the girls listed above gave false testimony that ruined peoples reputations, put people in jail, and had some hanged. June through September of 1692 were real real crazy in Salem. People were being accused of witchcraft and making pacts with El Diablo himself. You ask yourself... What proof did the court have that these people were guilty of witchcraft? Was there any hard evidence that these people were working side by side with Big Red? NO. THERE WAS NOT. 19 Men and Women were hanged, 150 were imprisoned(5 died while in jail), and one man over eighty years old was crushed to death by large stones for not confessing to witchcraft. None of the 19 people who were hanged ever confessed to being witches. The man crushed to death never admited to having any ties with the devil. Sorta makes you think that they really were doing anything sneaky with the man of the underworld. Many lifes were lost and some ruined by the earth shattering performances gave by Abigail Williams and her little homies in Salem Massachusetts...

Thanks for this entertaining post. I’m still shaking my head in amazement that so many people can be so quick to jump to conclusions without a shred of supporting evidence. But then again, these people did believe in spontaneous generation and that bathing once every six months was okay. So why not add familiar spirits that poke needles into people’s stomachs onto the list?
