Salem's no stranger to heavy rains. In April 1851, the Lighthouse Storm wreaked havoc from DC to Salem. Derby Wharf was damaged, streets flooded, and the railroad bridge vanished. Even the Minot's Ledge Lighthouse met its end. History etched in chaos.

Helen Duncan (1897-1956), aka Hellish Nell, arrested under UK's 1735 Witchcraft Act in 1944. Some call her a psychic fraud, others believe in her power to foresee and commune with the dead. Released in 1945, arrested again in 1956. Was she a witch or an impersonator? 🧙‍♀️👻
