On 15 October 1674, the witch trial of Torsåker opened. About one hundred people, of both sexes, were accused by the children. Even though this was the biggest witch trial in the country, the original documents of the trial provide little information of bad quality. The documents of 1674 simply summarize that the trial was very similar to the other trials and was very typical in every way, except for the uncommonly large number of victims. This would mean that the prisoners were accused of abducting children to the sabbath of Satan in Blockula.
