Description
Salem’s legacy isn’t just written in history books—it’s carved into tombstones and whispered from shadowed corners. On the Ghosts of Salem Tour, you’ll take a 90-minute journey through the city’s most haunted and historic locations, from centuries-old graveyards to Revolutionary-era homes.
You’ll walk the paths of judges and victims from the infamous Salem Witch Trials, feel the eerie stillness of the Old Burying Point Cemetery, and hear about the apparitions said to appear near tombs, tunnels, and taverns. Discover the connection between Nathaniel Hawthorne’s haunting tales and the real ghosts he may have encountered while strolling these same cobblestone streets.
Tales of tragic brides, a Lady in White, and spectral figures rising from the soil are just the beginning. Whether it’s the phantom sailors said to wander near Rockafellas or the unsettling energy of the Grimshawe House, each stop brings you closer to Salem’s supernatural soul.
This tour is immersive, educational, and just spooky enough for all ages—perfect for families, history buffs, and anyone drawn to the mysterious side of New England.
