1. The Forest: Abigail Williams and some of the other girls were dancing in the forest, engaged in suspicious activities that might be considered witchcraft.
2. Parris Household: The illness of Betty Parris, the Reverend's daughter, started in the Parris household, where Abigail worked as a servant. Her strange behavior and accusations of witchcraft cast suspicion on innocent individuals.
3. Salem Meeting House: As the town grappled with the witchcraft accusations, public gatherings, including church services, took place in the Salem Meeting House. Abigail accused innocent people during these gatherings, triggering hysteria and further illness throughout the community.
4. Courtroom: The witchcraft trials were held in the courtroom, where individuals accused of witchcraft, including Martha Corey, Rebecca Nurse, and John Proctor, faced a biased and unjust examination that contributed to their downfall and, in some cases, their unjust execution.
The illness and hysteria were not specific to one location but spread throughout the community as accusations gained momentum and trust eroded, with consequences that affected the entire town of Salem.
