A Brief Synopsis: Set during the 17th century in Styria, identical twin sisters Maria and Frieda Gelhorn move from Venice to Karnstein in Central Europe to live with their uncle Gustav Weil after becoming recently orphaned. Weil is a stern Puritan and leader of the fanatical witch-hunting ‘Brotherhood’.

Some of the topics discussed and highlights of this episode include:

• Where is Styria? Is it a real place?
  
• Is it true that Puritans always wore black?
  
• What exactly did Puritans believe?
  
• When was the last official witch burning?
  
• Greg references Jimmy Fallon.
  
• This film is part three of the “Karnstein Trilogy”.
