Have you ever had a movie franchise that appealed to you crash and burn?

1:30:52

Now that it has been awhile since the disastrous 8th season of Game of Thrones, we think it’s time to visit the subject again.

Not the best mind you, but our …

Incantations. Spells. Grimoires. The Devil’s words. BS tests and the hangman’s noose. All things that today don’t mean much, but in 1692 they meant everything, especially during the epic (kind of) mythological time of the Salem Witch Trials!
