Witch tour
maryjo_s, Jun 2025
The young man was very nice, but not knowledgeable at all when asked a question. His spill was very rehearsed. We had a hard time keeping up with his walking pace, as did the other couple on the tour. We were done in 55 minutes.

Holly was great. She gave us great information and even threw in some extra information just to go with history. She is a great tour guide. I highly recommend going on any tour she does.

Itinerary
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.
20 minutesOld 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.
20 minutesPeabody 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.
