The Chronicles of Death: Vol 1
Secrets Of Salem
FEAR HAS TAKEN ROOT
Salem, 1692: The Salem witch trials were never about witches.
They were about summoning Death.
Neighbors watch one another with suspicion. Old rivalries sharpen into accusations. And beneath the prayers, sermons, and whispered claims of witchcraft…
something ancient is beginning to stir.
EIGHT SOULS CONNECTED
A minister desperate to preserve his authority.
A wife hiding a power she does not understand.
A woman haunted by the home and life stolen from her.
A disgraced widow fighting to reclaim her own.
A beggar cursed with visions of what has been—and what may yet come.
A man seeking redemption for sins that refuse to stay buried.
Two young girls whose dangerous games have opened a door that should never have existed.
Each carries a secret. Each holds a piece of something far older than Salem. And someone intends to use them.
As accusations spread and Salem descends into hysteria, the eight are drawn toward unraveling a cosmic mystery older than time itself.
HISTORY BEHIND THE HORROR
The Salem witch trials remain one of the most well-known—and misunderstood—events in human history.
Secrets of Salem unfolds against the backdrop of the real trials, weaving together historical figures, places, accusations, and the religious tensions that consumed Salem in 1692 with supernatural mythology and cosmic forces operating just beyond the pages of history.
And at the center of it all:
Death.
DEATH HAS BEEN HERE BEFORE
Salem is only the beginning.
Long before the first accusation was whispered in Salem Village, humanity told stories of beings who existed beyond the boundaries of mortal life.
Death. Life. Love. Hope. Desire. Despair. Fate.
Across civilizations, their names have changed. Their stories have become myth, religion, folklore, and superstition. But behind those stories lies something older—and far more dangerous.
The Chronicles of Death follows these ancient forces across human history, revealing the moments when their world collides with ours and the consequences left behind.
Secrets of Salem is the installment of a cosmic mystery.
The trials of 1692 may have been recorded in history.
What happened behind them was not.
