The Journey
Gallows Hill Park
Stand on hallowed—or rather, cursed—ground at Gallows Hill Park, the infamous site where 19 innocent individuals were unjustly executed during the Salem Witch Trials. Feel the weight of history as you reflect on the tragic events that unfolded here, a somber reminder of the dangers of intolerance and mass hysteria. Though now a serene park, the echoes of the past resonate deeply, making it a poignant and contemplative destination.
Friends Burial Ground
Discover the serene and historic Friends Burial Ground, a peaceful sanctuary offering a glimpse into Salem's Quaker heritage. Established in the 17th century, this simple yet profound cemetery reflects the Quaker values of simplicity and equality, with unmarked graves set amidst a tranquil landscape. It's a place for quiet reflection and contemplation, distinct from the more sensationalized aspects of Salem's history.
The Phillips House
Step back in time at The Phillips House, a meticulously preserved mansion showcasing the opulent lifestyle of a prominent Salem family across generations. Beyond its refined facade lies a darker undercurrent, with whispers of unexplained phenomena and lingering spirits. Explore the grand rooms filled with antique furnishings and artwork, while contemplating the secrets and stories hidden within these historic walls. A true window into Salem's wealthy past, with a ghostly twist.
Howard Street Cemetery
Brave a visit to Howard Street Cemetery, Salem's oldest burial ground and a haven for paranormal activity. Legend has it that Giles Corey, pressed to death during the witch trials, roams here, cursing those who trespass.

A thrilling experience for ghost hunters and history buffs alike.

Salem's Custom House
Visit Salem's Custom House, a stately building that once buzzed with the energy of international trade and commerce.

The House of the Seven Gables
