Xander Berkeley is more than just a co-star of WGN America’s “Salem.” He also helped work on the masks used in the show. In this behind-the-scenes look at his creations, he’s joined by Curtis Akin from the Props Department. It’s a fascinating look at bringing inanimate objects to life.
“Salem” explores what really fueled the town’s infamous witch trials and dares to uncover the dark, supernatural truth behind them.
