The Witches Tour
Overview
We will unmask and trial two witches EXACTLY as they would have been trialled back in the 1600s (well we won't kill them but you know what i mean)
Follow the trail of tears and heart-breaking cries to the different points in town where the trials were held. Witness the debauchery and torture as it would have been (i promise i won't hurt anyone for real though, unless you ask me to?? )
You will also find out about some little known points of history en route.
