Salem Witch Trials
On this day in 1692

Apparitions continued to visit Tituba at the parsonage. Tituba recalled a hog or large black dog leaping out of the shadows and commanding her to "serve me" before shifting into the shape of a man. The witches also materialized in the room; though she couldn't identify two of them, she recognized the others as Sarah Good and Sarah Osborn. The man-devil repeatedly shouted, "Serve me, serve me," until she signed his book with the blood from her finger.

Salem Witch Trials
On this day in 1692

Tituba was standing in the hall next to the parlor door as Rev. Parris and his wife tended to Abigail and Betty. Suddenly, four women appeared in the corner, followed by the man-devil who emerged behind her. He grabbed her and commanded, "Go and do harm to them and pinch them." Unnoticed by the Parris family, they all moved into the parlor.

Tituba resisted harming the girls, but the four women encircled her, forcing her towards Abigail and Betty and compelling her to pinch them. Afterward, the women vanished and the man-devil warned that Rev. Parris would soon read from his Bible and quiz her on its contents to gauge her understanding, but she would be unable to remember. He then vowed to return on Friday to show her his book.
