A woman suddenly finds herself accused of being a witch in colonial Massachusetts.
When Sarah Bishop opened her eyes, she was shocked to find herself tied to a pair of wooden beams with all of colonial Massachusetts staring with nasty looks on their faces.

But before she was about to ask what was going on, a man in a robe approached and ripped her dress off before placing a hot metal rod on to her skin.

And after she let out a scream of intense pain, the magistrate walked over and told Sarah that she was going to be burned on the spot because of the accusations of witchcraft against her.

But when the fire was lit under her feet, poor Sarah began to scream bloody murder just before the flames had fully consumed her.

That was before she let out one last scream and found herself back in her living room with a book on the Salem witch trials on her lap.
