The Bewitching of Anne Gunter

In 1604, TWENTY-YEAR OLD ANNE GUNTER claimed I to be bewitched: she foamed at the mouth, vomited pins and went into trances. Somewhat suspiciously, one of the women accused of bewitching her was related to the two men murdered by Anne's father during a football match. They were tried for witchcraft and acquitted. But then Anne Gunter's father appealed directly to James I, who took a close interest in witches. The case was investigated by the Star Chamber - with over 50 witnesses - and all was revealed.Here is a true crime story, investigated properly for the first time 400 years later.
