Thanks for the info. I thought I read on their website that you can tour the house. I'm gonna pin your comment so other people will be able to read it. Thanks again 💜
Salem Witch Museum allows photos but no videos. Also, the Peabody Essex Museum is a gem in Salem.

Oh yeah, I just realized I’ve been inside the Salem Witch Museum, but I transferred the photos to my external drive and I couldn’t find it anymore. My husband only reminded me that we’ve been inside.
My fiancée pitched visiting Salem around our one year wedding anniversary for our honeymoon - I love all things spooky and history-y so I'm all for it. Thanks for the tourism ideas!
I go every year around Halloween 🎃 love it

The House of the Seven Gables in Salem is phenomenal! It shows so much historic aspects to architecture. Super fun tour. I’ve been there twice and have seen it twice awesome time.

Im going for my 10th year in a row this year, and I cannot wait. Happy early Halloween everyone!
Been to salem and there is so much t see. This was a good simple walthrough. For me the first trip I was overwhelmed. Spent 7 days got through many touristy places. Second visit the same and historic places but missed a few. My suggestion don't go on the fly or busy season and do your research(know where you want to visit and watch some you tube vids. First thing: eat or take trolley. The trolley is so worthwhile all day pass tour all through main salem. Second: know where to eat some places are great for breakfast and lunch others for dinner and you can't forget the bars. Do t be shy asking locals the people are usually friendly . Third: Know the simple laws Crossing just about anywhere is permitted especially downtown. There's crossing police and lights with timers and chiming to let you know when it's safe. Pedestrian have the right away but don't be a jerk about it. Salem police are very friendly but have their limits please be respectful. Fourth: have a ride Get a Uber app or drive things get expensive.

Thank you so much for sharing these tips and suggestions! They are great and very useful. Definitely, October is a busy season. I knew it was going to be crowded when we went, but I wanted to experience Salem around Halloween. We usually take the trolley whenever we would explore a city, but for some reason we never thought of that. We'll definitely do that on our next visit. I heard the Ugly Mug diner is a great breakfast place, but there was a long line outside so we had to find another place to eat. I actually have more on my list, but we were pressed for time. Hopefully, we can visit again soon. Thanks again for your comment! I appreciate it.
Breakfast: Reds (historical coffee house) Ugly mug A&J King Artisan bakery Gulu gulu cafe Lunch & Dinner: Reds Howling wolf Tavern Mercy Boston hotdog Co. Flying saucer pizza Kokeshi Seafood: Lobstershanty Turners Rockafellas Longboards Sea-level Bars:bit bar Opus Rockafellas Hotel salem Ledger Sweets:caramel french patisserie Ye Olde pepper Co. (Oldest candy shop in America) Good night fattys (cookie truck) Melt ice cream Jodi bees Coffee shops: jaho Brew box Gulu gulu cafe Ugly mug Caramel french patisserie All of these are my suggestions they're all awesome. There's others not on my list that are great too. I just found these places great every time. I can't suggest ugly mug ,Tavern and Kokeshi enough. Hope this makes things easier on visitors.

It still amazes me on all these videos of Salem yet nobody goes to pine Street in Danvers to see the Rebecca nurse house It was part of the witch trials. Fun fact Danvers used to be part of Old Salem village.
I haven’t been to Salem in years and when I mean years I’m talking about when I was in Girl Scouts elementary school and now I’m in my 30’s . I’m going in October and taking my mom because I promised her last year that I would take her so this video was helpful

Thanks, Val! I love Hocus Pocus and so to be able to visit its film locations was definitely a bucket list accomplishment. We didn't see a lot of people in costumes yet. It would've been nice to see the Sanderson sisters again hehe. And Salem is rich in history. I would love to go back and do a guided tour.

Never been, but I can only imagine. And knowing me, the museum, the costumed walking around, the ticket booth, the 9 dollar coffee, etc. etc. would annoy the hell out of me blocking my way to what I really want to see. The grounds where it actually happened and the look around to get the feel of the place. Oh, the cementary, well, if any residents are from that late 1600s time, I would have interest. OK, now let's drive down to the actual site of the Pilgrims' landing and Plymouth Rock. Oh! Hey! Get ... get outta my way! I gotta fight through the 9 dollar coffee, the Hari Krispy guy, the ticket booth, the ... Let's go back to the car.
thanks for this video, I like the food hehe!

Hello love your video sm❤️❤️ I’m curious if they start setting up for Halloween a little bit before Halloween incase some can’t make it near the end of October?
@AngelsVideoDiary
Жыл бұрын
Yes, they do. They have an event called "Salem Haunted Happenings" and they usually decorate the city as early as October 1st. Are you visiting any time soon? 💕
Pro tips: go in summer, not October. The weather will be better, there will be fewer crowds, short lines, and less likely to have an attraction sold out. Also less likely to be a victim of price gouging, and there is more parking Also if you heading from Boston for the day, take the commuter rail from North Station. You get dropped off just one block from the touristy part of town How on earth did you overlook the Peabody Essex museum? It’s the best attraction in town
Giles Corey may have been tortured there, but he was pressed to death around the parking lot you showed at the end.

September to November is the best time to visit Salem, but it will be incredibly busy. I would go early October during the week as weekends are the busiest time to go. October gives you the chance to experience fall foliage and spooky Halloween decor as well. 😊👻

What’s the hype around Gulu Gulu coffee? Is it from a movie?
Y'all can criticize the Salem Witch Trails as much as you like; however, after the trials were concluded, there was a 100% reduction in witches .
