Keel M. Posted June 6, 2017 #1 Share Posted June 6, 2017 Helen Duncan was the last woman tried under the Witchcraft Act of 1735. She was an alleged medium who revealed sensitive information about a ship's sinking before it was widely known to the public. I discovered this documentary about her on YouTube. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was also a drama documentary about this on the BBC about twenty years ago. Elaine C Smith (MARY DOLL!) played Duncan. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
