Tuesday, January 20th, 2009 | Entertainment, Witchcraft

Pendle Today: “High on a hill in the wild and lawless area of Pendle, a secret meeting is held at Malkin Tower.

By the end of the year, most of those present have been sentenced to death at Lancaster Castle - hanged for the crime of witchcraft.

‘Sabbat’, a new play by Richard Shannon, attempts to unravel the mysteries behind one one of England’s most famous trials, that of the notorious Pendle Witches.”
