Micha was excellent! He went beyond our hour tour to show us a few extra spots. It was way better than the Haunted tour we took last night.

This is my second time at Salem and this tour by far exceeded the first one our tour guide MISCA was hands-down by far the best. I would definitely do the tour again!
