Very CREEPY picture attached!!!!! Highly recommend! This wasn't your typical "scare you with ghost stories" tour. Instead, it was a fantastic history lesson filled with fascinating details about Salem that we don't learn enough about in school. The guide let the facts speak for themselves and left it up to us to decide what we believe. Super interesting and well done—we learned so much! The most memorable part? This photo of my daughter standing still on the steps in front of the old Town Hall. Neither of us was moving, yet my phone captured this wild double exposure—just her head appearing twice nothing else in picture. Never seen that before! Creepy cool and the perfect souvenir from our visit. 😱📸 If you're in Salem, do this tour!

Lawrence was a fantastic guide and truly gave a thoughtful, respectful, and modern approach to talking about the witch trials. We are leaving Salem with a very different, and much better, understanding of history. But don’t get me wrong, the night tour was still really fun and entertaining. The great history was such a bonus. It’s a good balance to something more ‘old-fashioned’ like the Witch Museum. Our 9 year old was fully engaged, the 5 year old was struggling after a long day but overall I would still say this is a very family friendly activity where the adults had a great time too. Thanks, Lawrence!

Stacey was the absolute BEST tour guide we could have gotten. I moved into Salem in September, and just had a springtime tour, feeling like a fraud because I am a local. I learned so much more than I anticipated from Stacey’s tour guide experience. She was awesome!

This tour was fantastic. Elaina was a great guide. She was funny and quirky but quickly turned serious and deeply moving when telling her stories. You can tell she is very passionate about the subject and cares about telling these stories and keeping the history alive. We came the week after Halloween for this visit and it was, by far, the best time we have been here. It’s great to come during the spooky season but it is incredibly busy and hard to do many of the things. I highly recommend doing this tour with Elaina as your guide and maybe come at the beginning of November!

Our tour guide Scott was honestly the highlight of our entire trip to Salem! He had so much cool insight and was genuinely passionate about both the town’s history and current state. Great pacing and the perfect blend of humor, history, and morbid curiosity. 11/10, this tour is a must-do for anyone visiting!!
