The topic we want to base our film in is the Island Magee Witch Trails, which took place between 1710 and 1711 on Island Magee in which is now known as Northern Ireland. This trial is throughout to be the last witch trial to take place in Northern Ireland.
Some background trials:
It all started when Mrs Haltridge, an Island Magee local, reported phenomenons of poltergeists and potion in the house of Mrs Haltridge. She had been unable to sleep and clothes had been thrown around the house, and a boy appeared to her. She was then heard screaming one night and was found dead, having been stabbed.
Another woman, Mary Dunbar claimed to also being attacked by a woman in her, she named the woman and subsequently 8 women were arrested and put on trail for with craft.
