No there were no witches. I suppose there probably were some wiccans though. The people burnt were just ordinary women.

Answer 7

There were a number of people killed as witches in what is now the USA, and there were certainly some people who practiced magick and who may have followed a religion which the Puritans would have labelled heresy or Satanic.  However, those who were hung (or crushed) as witches were almost certainly not.  They were merely those accused, due to small town resentments and hysteria.
