sarah good and sarah osborne maintained their innocence.
the three women performed supernatural feats in the courtroom.
tituba suggested that there were other witches in salem.
tituba confessed to witchcraft.

Explanation:

In the context of the Salem - Witch Trials, when Tituba confessed to witchcraft after being accused, it fueled the witch - hysteria. Her confession led people to believe that witchcraft was real and more widespread in Salem, causing a panic and leading to more accusations. The other options do not have the same impact on escalating the hysteria. Sarah Good and Sarah Osborne maintaining their innocence would not increase the hysteria. There is no historical evidence that the three women performed supernatural feats in the courtroom. Tituba suggesting there were other witches was a part of her confession, but the act of confessing itself was the key factor in increasing the hysteria.

Answer:

Tituba confessed to witchcraft.
