Thomas and Satan were amazing guides! It was the exact tour I wanted giving the true stories behind the popular narrative of the witch trials. Except for the wind, it was a perfect tour. Hail Satan!!!

We had an incredible time on this walking tour. All of these positive reviews about Thomas are for a reason. He is DANG good at his job!

Tour was a goddamn hoot! Very informative without all the make believe paranormal nonsense. It was also nice to have Satan join the fun. Highly recommend for skeptics!

Excellent tour of Salem! The history lessons centered in actual events and not ghost stories was great. Thomas's emphasis on misogyny and racism was such a welcomed and very important part of the discussion that is often overlooked. His comedic timing was great too and a nice relief from the very heavy topics discussed. Satan was so sweet and added to the overall greatness of the tour. Touring with other like minded individuals made it all the better. I could not recommend this tour enough.

Thomas was so cool! His tour was informative, historically accurate, with just a hint of humour that kept things lively and entertaining. He didn’t glaze over any historical accuracies in favour of glorified, fake stories. He was truthful to the material and overall very knowledgeable about the town and its history. Satan the dog was also a great touch!

I am so happy that I went on a Monday after Halloween. There were a total of three people in the group which made the experience more personal. It made the tour feel less forced and more engaging. There was a lot of entertaining and factual information and it was even better that it was a night walk. I didn’t get to see the dog, but I felt like I got a decent tour and it helped familiarize me with Salem. It was nice to get some exercise and experience nightlife on my first night in town.

This tour was excellent. Our guide and his dog were thoroughly entertaining. Rather than tell us a bunch of stories about haunted houses, he taught us the real history behind the Salem witch trials. The tour guide was both informative and funny!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ If you want a tour of Salem that’s not-so-brief, brutally honest, and wildly entertaining, this is the one. Thomas and his snack-driven sidekick Satan deliver a mix of history, humor, and unspoken truths that you won’t hear anywhere else. From the very beginning, Thomas had us laughing nonstop while still learning so much. What sets him apart is his professionalism and genuine care—he’s one of the only guides I’ve seen who will actually pick up the phone, call, and wait for guests. Almost 10-15 mins late but he cared enough to call 3 times! He’s observant, keeps safety in mind, and makes sure everyone stays engaged. Even the little details—like reminding us to walk together “like the wildebeest that killed Simba’s dad,” or not staring at lights at night—show how much thought he puts into the experience. It was a chilly night but our tour guide lit the night on fire with his fun facts and weirdness. This off-the-wall tour had us piecing together forgotten tales, like the story of the water wall that once held Salem’s richest port together. It’s quirky, it’s bold, and it’s unforgettable. We are definitely coming back (with snacks for Satan as well) 💀 Tip him, please. He’s worth every dollar. Honestly, I wish I could give this tour 10 pentagrams instead of 5 stars. We had an absolute blast and walked away with both laughs and knowledge. Highly recommended.
