The Salem Night Tour is devoted to unearthing the stories Salem refuses to forget. With over 4,000 five-star reviews and twenty years in Salem, we have become the city's most trusted after-dark experience. Our guides are steeped in Salem’s deep-rooted ghost stories and history, unscripted, and devoted to getting it right. Salem after dark feels like an entirely different city, and these stories belong to the night. Centered around sites like Bridget Bishop's homestead, the iron gates of Salem's oldest cemetery, and the site where Giles Corey was pressed to death, our tours cover Salem's documented hauntings and enduring history. Check in early at Remember Salem on Essex Street, where Wynotts Wands, the Ouija Board Museum, and the Halloween Museum are all within steps. The experience starts before the tour does.

5.00Our guide Bobby was very knowledgeable and funny. He kept everyone together and waited till we could all hear before telling us the details. He was funny and kept us all engaged and always had some tour bits of info and suggestions for us. Very excellent tour!
Group was much too large

2.00Too many people in the group so it was hard to hear. There were at least 40 people. The guide turned up the mike but it didn't make a difference. Some sort of costume for the guide would have been fun as well. I would much prefer to pay a little more for a smaller group.
Good time!!
