About the author

active 1612-1618 Thomas Potts

Best known as the clerk who recorded the 1612 Lancashire witch trials, this early 17th-century writer left behind one of the most famous accounts of witchcraft prosecutions in England. His surviving work offers a vivid glimpse of Jacobean fears, power, and storytelling.
