Seymour Public Library to present 'Witches in Connecticut' talk

SEYMOUR - Jenny Steadman of the Connecticut Historical Society will present the harrowing story of the hanging witches in Colonial New England at 6:30 p.m. Sept. 28.

The trials and execution of witches in Connecticut predated the more famous Salem witch panic by over 40 years. 

Hear the stories of some of the women and men accused, tried and executed as witches, and learn how Connecticut successfully controlled the spread of witch accusations long before Salem erupted in panic and violence.

Admission is free. The Library is at 46 Church St.
