The Crucible is based on a historical event, and the playwright Arthur Miller used actual court documents to write the play. This site has links to actual documents (like arrest warrants) and transcripts of what was actually said in court.
This is an attractive interactive National Geographic site. Students enter the world of The Crucible and make choices similar to the choices the characters in the play make.
This site has information about The American Colonial Period, McCarthyism, and Puritanism and includes links to various historical information--good for research.
This site called Which Witch if Real? allows you to enter the lives of characters such as Rebecca Nurse. You can see a photograph of her house (which is still standing today in Salem).
