Our tour guide was very thorough and posed questions that left you thinking hmmm.... She covered the history of 1692 with side stories that tied into the Witch Trials.

Expected to see more historical sites. Guide rambled about the accused witches and their families. Was very hard to follow what he was saying.

Sorry you feel this way, but we go to several locations related to the witchcraft trials including the home of the sheriff, judges (includes witchhouse), courthouse, church, Bridget Bishop's home, pressing site of Giles Corey. Many structures are gone so nobody can bring you to the actual structure unless it is the witchhouse. We provide a detailed, chronological approach to explaining the complicated event known as the Salem Witchcraft Hysteria.
