Bilocation, or sometimes multilocation,
is an alleged psychic or miraculous ability wherein an individual or
object is located (or appears to be located) in two distinct places at
the same time.
Spectral evidence
Spectral evidence was testimony that the accused witch's spirit (i.e. spectre)
appeared to the witness in a dream or vision (for example, a black cat
or wolf). The dream or vision was admitted as evidence. Thus, witnesses
(who were often the accusers) would testify that "Goody
Proctor bit, pinched, and almost choked me," and it would be taken as
evidence that the accused were responsible for the biting, pinching and
choking even though they were elsewhere at the time.
