In Other Media
In an episode of Ghost Adventures titled "Salem Witch House/Lyceum Restaurant" in the fouth season, lead investigator Zak uses a spirit box talk to a spirit claiming to be Bridget Bishop. Besides asking what her name was, to which she replies 'Bridget Bishop', he asks her how she died. She replies saying she was hanged. Zak also asks the spirit if she was a witch or did witchcraft, but the investigators were unable to determine her answer. Later in the same episode, the investigators get an EVP of Bridget after asking 'who was it who hanged you?'. The spirit appeared to answer with the name 'Mary'. The investigators feel this may be Mary Wallcot, one the women who testified against Bishop at her witchcraft trial.

Famous quotes containing the word media:
“One can describe a landscape in many different words and sentences, but one would not normally cut up a picture of a landscape and rearrange it in different patterns in order to describe it in different ways. Because a photograph is not composed of discrete units strung out in a linear row of meaningful pieces, we do not understand it by looking at one element after another in a set sequence. The photograph is understood in one act of seeing; it is perceived in a gestalt.”
