Fear Street: 1666 recap
In the settlement of Union, before it split into Shadyside and Sunnyvale, Sarah Fier loves Hannah Miller. After a party, the pastor goes mad and kills twelve children, including Sarah's brother, and Solomon Goode kills him. The town blames witchcraft, and Caleb names Sarah and Hannah. Hiding at Solomon's house, Sarah finds that he made the devil's pact himself, trading his neighbors' lives for power and wealth. She refuses to share it, and he cuts off her hand. Sarah confesses to being the witch to save Hannah and is hanged, swearing revenge.
