Exterior shot sites from movie - Our tour guide Ryan was a movie fan and history buff and it showed in his narration on our tour. He took us to multiple sites where Hocus Pocus was filmed. He shared fun facts about the filming of the movie as we walked. Ryan always asked, and even encouraged, everyone to take photos. He was more than willing to take pictures using your phone so that entire families/groups could all be in the picture. The tour stops twice, if needed, at local convenience stores in case someone needs to buy a drink or use a restroom. As the TripAdvisor description notes you will end about a mile outside of the touristy area of Salem where the tour starts. NOTE - our tour was in mid May 2026. The final stop Pioneer Village was closed. We learned that the whole Pioneer Village is closed for major renovations. You will only be able to hold a camera up over the solid wooden fence to see into the village.

Hocus Pocus Tour Salem - My adult daughter and I ,who are big Hocus Pocus Fans Did the Movie Location Tour in Salem .It was one of the best Salem Tours I have ever taken .We have been to Salem several times in the past but during peak season and the tickets for this tour always sold out. Visiting in May during half way to Halloween celebration was perfect . Less crowds , Our guide Rebecca was awesome she’s is a true Hocus Pocus expert .she gave so much detail in to sites we visited and gave such fascinating stories about the actors , making of movie. Little details you never noticed . She had trivia questions and if you answered correctly you received a piece of Halloween Candy at the end of tour we all received little “ Hocus Pocus “ gift bags . Yes the walking length of the tour is long. So definitely wear good sneakers .. But that really was the last leg of the tour to the house that “ Dani and Max” lived. Most locations were in about town and as I said it was off season so not walking among crowds of people able to take pictures with out other people standing taking their pictures. If you are a Hocus Pocus Fan. This tour is for you ! would highly recommend. And if Rebecca turns out to be your guide … you have gotten the best! “ It’s All Just A Bunch Of Hocus Pocus 🎃🎃🧙🏻‍♀️🧙🏻‍♀️🧙🏻‍♀️

Hocus Pocus - Our tour guide was excellent. He kept us uptodate before hand and gave clear directions where to meet. If you love Hocus Pocus, this is the tour you need to do. Im so glad i booked this as it would be difficult to find all the locations by yourself. You do get your steps in, but i would recommend booking this tour as you find out extra information regarding the film and other aspects about Salem that you wouldnt find out otherwise.
