Betty Parris

Betty Parris was the nine year old daughter of the Salem villages' reverend Parris and was the first to become ill after being "bewitched" as most people thought. Her contortions, convulsions and outbursts of gibberish at first baffled everyone, especially when other girls began to show the same symptoms as her. Shortly after her illness the Salem witch trials began with the girls accusing neighbours of witchcraft.
