Salem, MA is said to be a town that's forever stained with "blood, blood, blood." But the witch trials are only part of the town's legacy. A bloody and gruesome murder happened more than 130 years after the trials, and it not only inspired the writings of Nathaniel Hawthorne and Edgar Allen Poe, but it changed our legal system forever.
