There's a fantastic book called [A Delusion of Satan by Frances Hill] (https://www.amazon.com/Delusion-Satan-Story-Salem-Trials/dp/0306811596) that studies the Witch Trials in Salem and lays it out for what I personally believe it was, a combination of greed, religious fear, a stifling Puritan lifestyle, and teenage boredom that became a perfect storm for the shit show.
This looks not awful: http://www.amazon.com/Delusion-Of-Satan-Story-Trials/dp/0306811596
I'm from Massachusetts so I think we likely learned a little more than most of the country most of the trials didn't actually take place in current Salem, MA if I'm not mistaken because the Township was broken up into smaller towns over time.
Based on Wikipedia: Salem Village (now Danvers), Salem Town, Ipswich and Andover
I visited Salem a few years ago and I bought this at one of the tourist traps. It's the only book I've read on the subject but I liked it.
