The Crucible (sh. Iskušenje), na prostoru bivše Jugoslavije poznatiji pod naslovom Vještice iz Salema, je drama američkog književnika Arthura Millera. Temelji se na istoimenim događajima koji su se zbili u Massachusettsu 1692. i 1693. godine, i prikazuje znamenita suđenja vješticama iz Salema. Miller je dramu, pak, napisao, potaknut tada mnogo aktualnijim zbivanjima, odnosno kao alegoriju na makartističku histeriju, odnosno antikomunistički lov na vještice koji je zahvatila tadašnje američko društvo, pri čemu mu je značajan poticaj dala odluka njegovog dotadašnjeg prijatelja Elije Kazana da pred kongresnim odborom prokaže svoje prijatelje koji su u prošlosti bili članovi KP SAD.

The Crucible je nakon premijere doživio veliki uspjeh, i danas se smatra Millerovim najpoznatijim djelom. Godine 1957. je u tadašnjoj Istočnoj Njemačkoj u francuskoj koprodukciji snimljena ekranizacija pod naslovom Die Hexen von Salem, a 1962. je Robert Ward komponirao istoimenu operu. Godine 1996. je Miller svoju dramu adaptirao kao scenario za istoimeni film.
