‘The Witch Hunters’ dramatically depicts the events surrounding the great witch craze in Germany during the 1600s. A respectable man and mayor of Bamberg, Johannes Junius, and his family get accused of being witches. One by one, the Junius family is incarcerated, tortured, and executed. The church led interrogations lead them to another respectable family, the Shulers. Johann Shuler pleads to the church to save his innocent wife, but can he save her? In a time where confession led to death and proclaiming innocence led to brutal torture and eventually death, what can the accused do?
