• Bewitched in Salem - At the intersection of Essex and Washington Streets, in the vibrant center of downtown Salem, stands a captivating bronze homage to one of pop culture’s most renowned witches—Samantha Stephens, portrayed by Elizabeth Montgomery in the 1960s sitcom Bewitched. Captured mid-nose-wiggle, seated on a crescent moon, and surrounded by a swirl of stars, the statue appears playful at first glance… but in Salem, even sitcoms have deep roots.

Revealed in 2005, this statue stirred controversy—not due to its charm, but because of its closeness to the site of actual executions during the 1692 witch trials.
Today, the Bewitched Statue serves as a photo opportunity, a conversation starter, and—on moonlit nights, if rumors are to be believed—something more. Locals whisper about unusual EMF spikes and camera malfunctions occurring near it after dark. Coincidence? Perhaps. But this is Salem. Coincidence doesn’t reside here.

• Salem Old Town Hall - Constructed in 1816, Salem’s Old Town Hall is the city’s oldest municipal building—and one of its most haunted. Actors have reported cold spots, phantom footsteps, and inexplicable flickering lights. Some claim a former performer never left the stage.

Fans of Hocus Pocus will recognize it as the location of Allison’s Halloween party, but long before Hollywood took notice, this square was a hub of colonial drama. Paranormal equipment tends to go haywire here… and so do the stories.

• Old Burying Point Cemetery - Founded in 1637, Old Burying Point is one of the oldest cemeteries in the United States—and undoubtedly one of the most haunted. Moss-covered headstones lean like crooked teeth, some bearing names directly linked to the witch trials, including Judge Hathorne, the notorious “Hanging Judge” who condemned the accused without remorse.

Visitors frequently report chills, phantom whispers, and eerie sensations while navigating the narrow paths. EMF detectors are known to spike unexpectedly here—especially near the oldest graves. Some say the souls here aren’t angry… just waiting to be heard.

Tread lightly. Time may have buried the bodies, but not the stories.

• Witch House - The black timber looms like a shadow frozen in time—The Witch House, the only structure still standing in Salem with direct ties to the 1692 witch trials. Once the residence of Judge Jonathan Corwin, who sent many to the gallows, this house isn’t just historic—it’s haunted by consequence.

Step inside (if you dare), and you’ll find period artifacts, heavy silence, and a creeping feeling that something unseen is watching. Paranormal investigators often say the energy here is dense, as if the walls themselves are holding their breath. Guests have reported cold spots, flickers of movement, and sudden waves of dread—especially near the judge’s bedroom.

This house didn’t host the trials—but the man who lived here helped shape their horror. And in Salem, guilt doesn’t stay buried.

• Ropes Mansion and Garden - Don’t let the pristine white exterior deceive you—The Ropes Mansion is one of Salem’s most famously haunted homes. Built in the 1720s and owned by generations of the prominent Ropes family, this Colonial Revival beauty conceals a history steeped in sorrow.

The most well-known spirit said to linger here is Abigail Ropes, who allegedly died under mysterious and painful circumstances—some say fire, others say poison. Since her passing, guests and passersby have reported flickering lights, moving curtains, and the unmistakable feeling of being watched from the upstairs windows.

And horror fans—this one’s for you: the mansion was featured in Hocus Pocus as Allison’s house. But long before Disney’s witches came calling, Salem locals whispered that this house held ghosts of its own.

• Salem Witch Trials Memorial - Nestled beside Old Burying Point Cemetery, the Salem Witch Trials Memorial is a solemn space honoring the 20 souls executed in 1692. Simple granite benches extend from a low stone wall, each engraved with the name, method of execution, and date of death for the accused. No titles. No explanations. Just truth etched in cold stone.

The silence here is profound. Many visitors report an eerie stillness, sudden emotion, or a chill that doesn’t match the weather. It’s not uncommon for EMF detectors to flash, as if the memorial resonates not just with memory—but presence.

This isn’t just a tribute. It’s a reckoning.
