“Ghosts of Christmas Past”: a Haunted Holiday Stroll
Uncover Salem’s fascinating and ghostly holiday history, from strict Puritan bans on Christmas making it illegal even to celebrate, to Victorian Holiday ghost stories originally told around the fireside.

Spend your holiday season with us for a storytelling experience you’ll never forget.

5.00Samantha was amazing! Her vibe is awesome, and she is very knowledgeable, I’ve studied Salem for years and because of Samantha I learnt a lot more than what I knew. We also did the haunted mystery tour and that was off the top amazing, We love Samantha and hope to visit Salem again and have her as our guide. She inspired me to become a historian where I live. Merry Christmas and Happy New year!
Engaging, personal, and informative all while being fun! You get it all!

5.00This tour was amazing and perfect for the holiday season. We spent a lot of time trying to figure out what kind of tour we wanted to do, given we were in Salem around Christmas. The Ghosts of Christmas Past tour was perfect and our tour guide was phenomenal. He went by “Little Dicky” (after Charles Dickens) and had a wealth of knowledge and expertise of the town and all of it’s fascinating history. The tour was spooky, it was festive, and we learned so much! Our guide approached the tour conversationally instead of as though he was reading from a script, which was an excellent approach and made the entire journey more fun and engaging! More tour guides like him please!
