Dr. Rick Hendricks and Malcom Ebright wrote a book titled, “The Witches of Abiquiu: The Governor, the Priest, the Genizaro Indians and the Devil,” based on a little known event that took place in northern New Mexico in the eighteenth century. Between 1756 and 1766 there was an outbreak of witchcraft in Abiquiu, New Mexico which was five decades after the Salem witchcraft trials.
