En 1692, en la pequeña localidad de Salem (Massachusetts), corre el rumor de que una joven ha hecho un obsceno maleficio. Los habitantes se acusan unos a otros y son presa de una incontenible histeria colectiva, y entonces se inicia un juicio que tal vez propicie temibles venganzas... Arthur Miller concibió Las brujas de Salem en la época negra de la «caza de brujas» desplegada en Estados Unidos durante el macarthismo. Posteriormente colaboró en su adaptación al cine, titulada El crisol y cuyo guión se ofrece a continuación de la obra teatral.
