geographical help needed: Whitewood and Dunwich the provinces of witchcraft - did/do they exist?

Question

I tried to look over in the map of Massachusetts - USA, but I can´t find them.

some sources said they were in New England or Massachusets, but I can´t find them

Answer 1

You can't find either because they are fictional towns.

Dunwich is a fictional town that appeared in the H. P. Lovecraft short story "The Dunwich Horror" (1929). Dunwich is found in the fictional Miskatonic River Valley of Massachusetts, part of the imaginary region sometimes called Lovecraft Country. The inhabitants are depicted as inbred, uneducated, and very superstitious, while the town itself is described as economically poor with many decrepit and abandoned buildings.


The fictional town of Whitewood is obviously modeled after Salem, Massachusetts, though no witch cult was known to exist in the Americas. Nor, in fact, is there substantial evidence that any such religious movement existed in the seventeenth century, or was in any way at the roots of the witch hysteria at large. Witches were usually, low, ill-reputed women, completely helpless in the face of their politically advantaged accusers. Their stories of black masses and intercourse with the devil were merely lurid fabrications made under torture, likely scripted by the inquisitors themselves.

Answer 2

Dunwich is a 'lost' village in Norfolk, England. It was on the coast which has eroded away and the majority of it lies beneath the sea.
