In our interview with the lovely Janet Montgomery, she revealed this second season will find Mary Sibley alone and without any close confidantes or allies.

Montgomery also said that this second season was much more difficult for her to handle emotionally, as Mary is so all alone yet still very much in charge.

Salem, a bold re-imagination of the infamous 17th-century witch trials, returns for season two at the dawn of a Witch War. As the disease and devastation unleashed by a deadly supernatural ritual spread through the war-torn village, Salem’s most powerful witch, Mary Sibley, must face off against adversaries old and new who are vying for her throne.
