Solution

The correct option is E Thousands
'werewolf resulted in …(7)… of innocent people being hanged or burned ' is the line under review.

Since it is already been mentioned that, people were hanged or burned, the word Killing is redundant.

Again in the later paragraphs, it is mentioned over 30000 trials were held. It is also mentioned that even a single accusation was enough to kill people off. So we can select the word 'Thousands'.
