The timeless classic parable of mass hysteria draws a disturbing parallel between the awful high strangeness of 1692 Salem and our own paranoid society.

When a group of girls are caught dancing in the woods, they begin accusing others in the town of witchcraft to avoid punishment. When these accusations spiral out of control, paranoia abounds.

Everyone must choose between integrity and their own survival.
