About this activity

The Salem Night Tour is devoted to unearthing the stories Salem refuses to forget. With over 4,000 five-star reviews and twenty years in Salem, we have become the city's most trusted after-dark experience. Your guides are steeped in Salem’s deep-rooted ghost stories and history, unscripted, and devoted to getting it right. Salem after dark feels like an entirely different city, and these stories belong to the night. Centered around sites like Bridget Bishop's homestead, the iron gates of Salem's oldest cemetery, and the site where Giles Corey was pressed to death, your tours cover Salem's documented hauntings and enduring history. Check in early at Remember Salem on Essex Street, where Wynotts Wands, the Ouija Board Museum, and the Halloween Museum are all within steps. The experience starts before the tour does.
