How did witches used to get found out?
Question asked by: mrquestion
Asked on: 02 Apr 2008
Witches used to be tied to a chair and thrown into the water.
If they floated then they were clearly a witch to be able to float and would therefore be burnt as a result.
If they sunk, well then they weren't a witch, which wasn't much consolation for the person concerned as they were rather dead by the time the mistake was realised.
