About the series

Salem is an original scripted supernatural drama series loosely based on the Salem Witch Trials and tells the story of a powerful witch who initiates hysteria among the puritans with her wicked plans. Created by Brannon Braga and Adam Simon, the show debuted on WGN America on April 20, 2014 and the third season premiered on November 2, 2016. Beetlecod Productions and Fox 21 Television Studios are behind the production.

Set in the small community of Salem, Massachusetts in the 17th century, the show re-tells the story of the Salem Witch Trials from the perspective of the witches. Staring Janet Montgomery as Mary Sibley, and Shane West as Captain John Alden, Salem features their epic romance among the horror, hysteria and despair that has swept the town. Fans continue to tune in to see the unfolding historical drama and follow the beloved central characters. The current season kicked off with the devil brought to Earth by the witches as planned, but from that point on the witches' plan doesn't quite work out according to their ideas. Will all humanity be destroyed, or is there a chance that the devil's mother Mary Sibley will be able to beat him?

Season 3 recap

The third and final season of WGN America's Salem has come to an end on January 25, 2017. The 10-episode season went out with 0.23 million viewers tuning in, almost the season (and the series) low, which only proves that the show really was losing ground with fans and did come to the end of the road. The final episode, Black Sunday, was abound with multiple deaths. Anne Hale became the ruler of Salem after a killing spree that included her mother among the victims. Mary's body was returned to her, and she left Salem hand in hand with John Alden. Thus ends the dynamic supernatural series that was provocative and entertaining. There's no indication that Salem may be picked up by another network, so this is probably a real farewell.

Latest news

UPDATED December 14, 2016: The current season of WGN Salem is bound to be the series' last, and the creators seem to have been well prepared for such a twist in the supernatural series' fate. They are hinting at a satisfying conclusion of the series when the latter part of the third season wraps up. The last five explosive episodes are supposed to conclude the storyline of the supernatural series in a way that should satisfy the fans to at least some extent following the cancelation announcement. WGN's breakout hit turned out to be short-lived, but, hopefully, its conclusion will bring the show to a well-rounded end for the passionate fans.

UPDATED December 16, 2016: Time to mark your calendars, Salem fans - the remaining four episodes of the truncated 10-episode third season of Salem will begin airing on January 4, 2017, WGN has announced. The trailer clearly shows that Mary and John will be joining forces with Cotton Maher, Isaac and Sebastian Marburg in their desperate efforts to prevent Salem's destruction. Tune in and savor the last episodes of the final season of the supernatural thriller!

I have been captivated since the very first episode!!
Each episode has left me craving for more.
Mary has brought a new face to what Evil should look like. A Witch that still is captive to her once Humanity., Outstanding!!

love the show,love Janet,she is the real deal!!she is a true actress!!And beyond beautiful.I hope they bring back some of the main witches of last season,as far as the Hero/father they have to get him more involved ,both screen time and more action from him,he was written as too much of a push over,and less as a leading man.Lets see him kick some ass this season!!As far as Marlyn manson,looking forward to seeing him act.

I really enjoy this show. The writing, actors amazing story line. Obviously a lot of research has gone into this series about the Wiccan religion and the time period. That being said. I am very disappointed in the fact that by the time season 3 starts, it will be 4 months shy of 2 years since Season 2 started. It almost makes me want to forget about the show all together. I pretty much have anyways. Who can even remember what happened yesterday, let alone almost 2 years ago.

Really? I just watch 26 episodes and don't even remember her. Was she the [censored], Cotton fell in love with? Perhaps you like those scenes...

I love this show!! I never do anything on Sunday night because I don't want to miss it. With all the unsteadiness of the times etc. it is hard to find when it is on. I love ALL the characters and wish they would be back. More people watch it than you know. I watched some of the reruns but the times were inconsistent. So I missed some. Very well written!! Mary will be missed but I hope she is replaced. Everyone does an excellent job. I have never seen a show so well done before.

Love this show.. I have watched all the episodes on Netfilx. I agree with the other person, Mary makes the show. This is the first I have heard that the person who plays Mary will not be back in season 3. What a shame.

If Mary Sibley/Janet Montgomery isn't in the 3rd season it will ruin the whole show. Sorry to say but she makes the show. If the actor that plays her wishes to leave they should get a new actress to play Mary because after all witches can change their appearance.
