Massachusetts woman makes second attempt to watch all of Motherland: Fort Salem

I love this show but what they describe as "Gallows Hill, Salem, Massachusetts" is like a flat grassy lawn for some reason?

this is Gallow's Hill AKA Proctor's Ledge, with its memorial, in modern-day Salem

even if you make the (correct!) point that it's an alternate history and the area didn't develop the same way...shouldn't the land features be the same? the location was uncertain for a long time, but it's been known since 2016

oh, well. this is the show that also has people in bare feet and sundresses on Beltaine in Salem (which, spoiler, is not nearly warm enough for that- trust me, I've had Beltaine brunch with friends in Salem, and we were all in jackets and boots still)

I kinda want to write up a post about what locals refer to as the "Salem Sickness" here in witch city. Where people move to Salem wanting to become big name witches, but become known for their awful behavior and lack of spiritual power rather than being known as a the witch they dream of being. I've seen 5 or 6 different witch store owners in and around Salem fall victim to this, among other big name authors who tried coming to Salem.

This city has a weird dislike of people coming from the outside to capitalize off the land's trauma. Would yall be interested in hearing my thoughts on this?
