My group and I have been on ghost tours in different parts of the country and this was by far the worst. Huge group of 45+ and the tour guides mic was not working. He told us to tell him if we couldn’t hear him, and then when we did he told us to just get closer. Kind of hard to crowd around with a very large group. It was more of a history tour than anything. Would not consider it a ghost tour AT ALL. The tour guide we had was not a good story teller. Extremely boring and lame. Waste of money. Left not even 45 minutes into the 90 minute tour.

We're sorry you feel that way. Every tour company in the city goes out with 40-50 people. Everyone hears fine and everyone gets close. Our ghost stories are authentic and not embellished which is something you will find elsewhere. Our stories are of accidental death, murder and paranormal activity. There is no guarantee you will have something happen on the tour, but you will go to locations where paranormal activity happened.

Our guide was more into his own stories than any of the other things. We endured an hour and a half of his cheesy jokes and he was sometimes rude

We're sorry that you did not enjoy the tour. Our guides tell some personal stories but also tell the haunted history of Salem. We go to about 8 locations a night that include stories of accidental death, murder and paranormal activity.

My Son and I had a great time. Educational and fun. I would recommend it for all. Walking with all the other people made it fun.
