So was his wife in on the Witches' plan or was she just really fucking ruthless and greedy and rolled with it?
I always felt like the way she just jumps on the bandwagon felt suspicious.

She saw her chance and took it. If she'd known anything more than she let on, she wouldn't have gone loopy later.
She called on the spirits. I think initially she was just ambitious, but by letting the demons "unsex her", she allowed the witches and spirits to control her.
She knows. Women weren't allowed to participate in any spirtual matters. So she says 'unsex me here, spirits', to this effect. And she derails away from her sex. Gotta' remembe', It isn't necessarily away from old puppettheatres or fairytales in those linear suspenses.

Oh, like how the witches were mentioned as having beards at the start, or words to that effect?

you should be women,
And yet your beards forbid me to interpret
That you are so
