Current Talk '26 I / Re: The Beginning of 1795

Aunt Abigail (a fabulous character, so brilliantly played by Clarice Blackburn) was the kind of person who must have suspected witchcraft every time the cook burned the scones or her bed was not properly made by the household help. It would have been child's play to manipulate the mind of somebody like Abigail into thinking Phyllis Wick was a witch; Wick would, in any event, have been the first to be suspected by Abigail and anyone who thought like her, since Wick was a stranger.
Once Abigail called in Trask, the professional witch-hunter, I'm sure the situation escalated quickly.
They gave Barnabas a moment early in the return to 1968 period where he reflected to Julia his perception that "the past is constantly reworking itself." I can't recall the exact words, but they were cool lines. Even if they were basically a case of the writers telling the audience that we shouldn't hold them to any expectations when it came to story continuity.
