Walk Salem's most haunted streets and uncover the devastating true story of the 1692 witch trials — told the way only a lifelong local of old Salem can tell it. This tour is a favorite with families and curious kids of all ages. Named one of TripAdvisor's Top 10 Salem Walking Tours 2026, step into 400 years of mesmerizing history. Pass centuries-old buildings — could they still be haunted? Enjoy some Hocus Pocus stops. Then be shocked by Salem's lesser known history, and the question nobody thinks to ask: Why are there no Sheriffs located in Salem anymore? Every tour ends with time for questions and recommendations for where to eat, shop and explore by request. Hate the crowds? Pick our early morning 8:30am slot. We look forward to meeting you.
