go on google and look up salm witch trails. ]
a hanging? the different "witches"? ]
A pentacle? I don't believe that symbol was in any way involved in the Salem trials. It's been used mostly by Europeans and periferal cultures.... Tituba being African (Voodoo or similar, I believe), she may not have known anything about it and as far as I know it wasn't used as a symbol of witchcraft at that time.
You might include a description of the egg trick (break an egg into a glass of water and the shapes it makes are supposed to prodict the future or somesuch; look it up, it's been in most dramitisations) and the following story:
When one of the convicted witches was taken to be hanged, a priest came to her and said, repent of your sins and confess.
She told him, kill me and god will give you blood to drink.
When the priest died 25 later it was of internal hemmoraging -- with blood coming out of his mouth.
It's probably fake, given the scarcity of real records from that time and the fact that people can't quite agree who said it (I've heard Sarah Good and Susannah Martin, the former much more frequently). You can find a more complete version of the story here: [Link](Mouse over link to see full location)
search for 'June 29, 1692' and it will take you to the paragraph. ]
witches, witches eing hanged, flames and torches

What if you put pictures of what the witches looked like. Did you try google images. If not go to www.google.com and the bottom of the big sign that says google there a little button thta says images. In the search box type Salem Witch Trials and a bunch of pictures will come up!!
Hope I helped!~
