Great tour! - So much fun! Just do it! Our family enjoyed the tour so much, they still talk about it. Even though it was “off season” for Salem, the guide had just as much enthusiasm as if it was Halloween!

Great Tour! - My son and I took this tour with Vin. We really enjoyed ourselves. The guide was funny and informative. We picked up all kinds of info while walking around during the day but the tour helped tie it all together and provide additional insight about Salem. Also, this tour has a very cool shop that you can peruse while waiting.

Spooky & Interesting! - We thoroughly enjoyed this tour! Daniel had so many great stories about the history and people of Salem, which made the ghost stories much more evocative. He is a great storyteller and very friendly. The curiosity shop is also really fun and worth a peak before the tour as well! Highly recommend.

Chilling tales on a chilly night - fun! - Our tour guide was Vin, and he was a great storyteller and knew a lot about Salem's history. He was very friendly and good humored. The tour lasted about 2 hours, which was longer than I thought it would last! But, it didn't feel that long because learning about the history and ghost stories was so interesting! We didn't walk for 2 hours straight - we made about 8-10 stops in downtown Salem, and the stories Vin told were detailed and well-crafted. I enjoyed this a lot more than I thought I would, and I would recommend this activity to my friends and maybe even do it again myself!
