What To Expect

The Witch House at Salem

Welcome to Salem’s Witch House. Purchased in 1675 by Judge Jonathan Corwin, the Witch House is the only surviving structure with direct ties to Salem’s Witch Trials. It’s architecturally extraordinary and historically essential. Here you will learn all about Corwin, and the innocents he had executed.

Old Burying Point Cemetery

The Burying Point Cemetery, established in 1637, is one of the most prominent burial sites in Salem. Because of its age, every gravesite at the Burying Point unquestionably holds historical importance. One of the most important belongs to John Hathorne. You'll get to learn even more about the lives behind the spirits haunting these graves.

Peabody Essex Museum

We stand before the Peabody Essex Museum. Within these walls, you will find many of the original documents of the Salem Witch Trials. For the historians in tonight’s audience, this is a must-see stop. This is also where we would like to give you a few bits of information about the trials you may not find otherwise. This will be for “frequently asked questions,” so to speak.

Save $40. I never found my tour guide even when showing up where they said to meet and never got the experience ,accidentally joined the wrong group and it was the most boring experience ever, you also could've joined any group freely like we did accidentally, when asking for our money back they said no. Was supposed to be a nice treat for me and my significant other that we knew would be a one time thing we could do, and knew we would never be in Boston again or be able to do this again , this is the biggest scam ever.

Hi, I am sorry to hear that you could not find your guide. I spoke to you on the phone a few days ago and explained to you we have a no-refund policy. We then offered you a raincheck good in any city we run a tour in and never expires (as per company policy). Thank you for your feedback and we hope you give us another chance in the future to provide you with a better experience.

Loved listening to the combination of history and the unexplained mysteries of the spirit world. John was able to make our experience fun and somewhat spooky in leaving us with food for thought on the local tales. Lots of valuable information on the history of the Salem With Trials.
