Issobell Fergussone or Isobel Ferguson was a Scottish woman who confessed to witchcraft in Dalkeith, Edinburgh during the year 1661. Fergussone denied all accusations against her and asked to be pricked, to try prove her innocence. However, whilst pricking her on 5 July 1661 they were successful in finding the devils mark which led her to confess. The result of this trial led to her execution with the methods of strangling and then burning on 6 August 1661.
