Anne de Chantraine

Anne de Chantraine (1605 – 17 October 1622) was one of the many people to be accused and burned for witchcraft in the Great Witch Hunts of the 17th century.[1]

Life and death

At the age of 17, she was burned in one of Waret-la-Chaussée (now central Belgium), Liège, or elsewhere in France.[2] French language works have covered her life and have been reviewed in such notable sources as TIME magazine.[3]

Anne de Chantraine is a playable character in Nightmare/Atmosfear,[4][5] a series of interactive board games. She is a witch in the series, and has thus far appeared in all but two games.[6] She hosted the third installment of the series.[7]
