The Bewitched statue of Elizabeth Montgomery, who portrayed the witch Samantha Stephens in the 1964 TV sitcom "Bewitched," is an iconic landmark in Salem! I got really lucky that I was able to get pictures of on a late August afternoon/early evening without swarms of tourist crowds. There are walking tours that will visit the statue as a stop. Definitely get a picture here while you're visiting Salem!
Easy to get to and on a weekday easy to find parking . People offer to take your picture even .
Of course one needs to see the bewitched statue while in Salem! The statue is Elizabeth Montgomery who stared in the show Bewitched and Salem was where some of the show was filmed after their studio in Hollywood burnt down. It is what originally started opening the doors to tourism in this historic town and many of the walking tours tend to start here. During the busier season I heard there is a long line to get a picture with it, but during the off season there is no line. If you're in town, make sure to stop for a photo!
First stop on the walking tour. It's a statue of a fictional character from a TV show, but apparently filming a bewitched here was what spurred all the tourism. Hence, the rational for having it. Under audio and video surveillance, as it gets vandalized frequently. Good spot for a picture.
I came to salem to explore the town with family and we saw the bewitched statue while walking down essex street. Of course there was a big line to take the picture but it was worth the wait. Like who knows when im coming back to salem lol. The vibe around the statue was great because everyone was dressed like a witchy vibe. It is a must see in salem!
I always said if I got up here I would find this statue. I watched Bewitched growing up and loved the character Samantha. I was really surprised to see so many on yelp are really into her too.
Sure, there was a 2005 "Bewitched" movie and it starred Nicole Kidman and Will Ferrell. But for me, the original television show from the 1960s with Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York (and Dick Sargent) will always have a special place in my memories. Since this is Salem and it's the capitol of witchcraft, there is a statue here to honor one of the most famous good witches, Samantha Stephens. She is riding a broomstick crossing a crescent moon and looking like she's about to snap her fingers and do something witchy. The caption at the base reads "Elizabeth Montgomery as Samatha Stephens. 'Hair of gold, eyes that twinkle. A nose that neatly twitched, clever, charming and enchanting. Samantha left us all Bewitched. Presented by the people of TV Land." It was less than a month ago that I reviewed TV Land https://www.yelp.com/biz/tv-land-new-york?hrid=LTMO1LJusOGcIS01BrpKUQ and the Ralph Kramden statue https://www.yelp.com/biz/ralph-kramden-statue-new-york?hrid=by74Y02hvKbDB0Bu9Qw-Kg in New York City. Coincidence? Magic? [Review 18601 overall - 1183 in Massachusetts - 2123 of 2022.]
If you're a super fan of the show, this would be a fun photo ops. I have never seen the show and honestly don't plan on watching it. It's a great tourist attraction to those who enjoy witch tourism.
The Bewitched statue is located in the downtown area of Salem. Came here during the day to check out this little area and see what it was about. Our first stop was to take a photo of this statue that if you remember back in the day they had this television show where she was a witch and living a normal life in the suburbs. She was amazingly beautiful and even this statue does a really good job on how I remember what she looked like before. Salem has a lot of history and is famous for the witch trials in 1692. So many people during that time and era were accused of being a witch and some people also had lost their lives in heinous ways.
If you are in the Salem area, be sure to stop by this statue. My mom was excited because she watched the show growing up. Me on the other hand, had no idea who she was. But it was crowded with people waiting to see her. Cool!
Located in Lappin Park in Salem, Massachusetts. This Bewitched statue is the most visited attraction in Salam. It was unveiled on June 15, 2005 and pays tribute to the beloved show, staring Elzabeth Montgomery, as Samantha Stevens, sitting on a broom with a crescent moon behind her. During the 7th season, in 1970, Bewitched did film a few episodes in Salam, known as the "Salem Saga" and featured several landmarks of the city (which include The Witch House, The House of the Seven Gables and Hawthorne Blvd). There was a studio fire that occurred on the set when they filmed in Hollywood so they decided it would be fitting to film here in this town. The story brought Samantha Stevens to Salam for a witches' convention (in which her husband, Darrin and her mother, Endora also tagged along for the episodes). On a raining Monday, my husband, our little girl dog and I decided to make the drive to Salam from Boston. One of the things I wanted to make sure that we visited was this beautiful statue. Although the statue itself has been rather a controversial argument with the people of the town, it was still nice to see how well crafted this statue is, with all of its detail (although I don't recall that Samantha Stevens even rode a broom in the show... did she?). If you are fan of the show (aired from 1964- 1972), you should make a visit here if you are visiting the nearby area. If there is a crowd of people, it will dissipate quickly and then you'll be able to get a few photos if you wish. There is street parking (metered) nearby the area, so it should be easy to find this statue and walk over.
We came in October and there is usually always a very long line to take your photo with the statue. If you time it right though, the line dies down when there is a street performer in the area. Also! the earlier in the day the shorter the line! The whole area gets much busier the closer you get to noon and especially the dark.
I am about 10 years too young to have watched Bewitched when it was released, but oh my did I watch the reruns. We took a tour of Salem and this was a popular stop. The tour guide said the town was not initially receptive to the show being based/filmed in Salem because they thought it was disrespectful to the tragedy of the witch trials. It turns out Bewitched helped revitalize Salem and locals became much more accepting. Elizabeth Montgomery visited the town and our tour guide said the little girls in Salem were all trying to wiggle their nose like her. The statue is easy to find and a very cute addition to the downtown area. read more

Checking out the Bewitched Statue is a must when visiting Salem! It's a 6 foot statue of Elizabeth Montgomery aka Samantha that pays tribute to the very well-known TV show from the 1960's. Several episodes were filmed in Salem during it's 8 season run. The statue has been around for 20 years! It's smack dab in the middle of one of the more busy streets so it's not hard to miss...usually it's surrounded by people waiting in line to take photos with it though. This is the first stop in most of the walking tours in Salem so it can get pretty busy depending on what time you get there. I think it is the perfect statue to have in Salem as I think it represents why so many tourist flock to the city! If you like spooky and witchy vibes, check it out! read more

Cool statue in the heart of Salem Massachusetts that my family and I visited last week. It is from the classic bewitched TV show from Wayback in the day got a little Salem and all there which history and memorabilia that they have in their city and this is one of the cool ones read more
This monument is one of those sad feeling mixed with and "okay" I may get it feeling. So the Bewitched Statue, such a beloved television show and with the simple twinkle of the nose the Witch could do all sorts of things. It's like an American Icon. Location? Very poorly chosen. After taking a tour, it was made very well known that where the statue sits, was actually a route taken for the "witches" to be dragged down the road (after stopping by the church of course) to go up on the hill to be hanged. So the statue itself was pretty cool, just a typical statue for an American tv show. But the location was poorly chosen given the history of the spot and where the spot was on the final "walk" to the hanging grounds. I do believe many of the locals do not care for this statue at this location, but I could be wrong. Either way I recommend if your in the area, go and check it out and see what you think for yourself! read more

I didn't take my picture with Samantha because we were in a hurry to get to to our AirBnB reservations buy I sure did love Elizabeth Montgonery & never missed an episode of Bewitched. The statue pays tribute to the well-known TV sitcom 'Bewitched' and its filming of the seventh season there in Salem. Well it is the season and I'm going back to some of those reviews that I failed to post a couple years ago when I was otherwise occupied. Now for some interesting notes on this cool tribute. There were lots of people that claimed the statue trivialized the witch trials. Some of those protesters claimed it was a tacky tribute. Apparently some of those folks had not actually ben to Salem because there's no shortage of tacky witch stuff all over the place although it was mostly Salem residents who protested. The good news is that modern dat witches, all over, were string supporters. You say tacky? During the Halloween season, as well most of them all year long, you can go to a haunted house, buy a shirt with a tacky phrase or get your photo taken with a ghost, goblin or yes a witch just steps away from the burial ground where a memorial stands to the victims of the witch hunt. There's a store that has been in Salem for some time that does psychic readings. What's the name of the store you might ask? Bewitched In Salem. Say again! Finally we had a very traumatic experience, on my very first visit to Salem, when we first visited the Salem Witch Museum in 1978. My wife was 7 most. pregnant with our #1 son (it's his birthday today) and the guide sent us up a closed stairway that was under construction by mistake. My sweetheart slipped on a large loose lying bolt and broke her leg & ankle in four places, it was really awful. She still has the screws in her tibia, to this day. So, we have some interesting history with Salem over our visits there and besides that first disaster we have always enjoyed our time spent in this lovely city. Bottom line: Make sure and visit Samantha when in Salem! read more

This is a nice tourist thing to do while in Salem. It is near many attractions and you'll pass it on the way to The Witch House, and the Ropes Mansion. I watched a couple episodes of Bewitched recently and can't believe that I used to love it as a kid. It is extremely sexist and puts women in certain roles. read more

Great Location to add a statue of one of America's favorite shows! I heard If she crunches her noise, Traffic Stops....Hmmmm! read more
We were recently in the area over the weekend to check out some different attractions, We had hoped to park and get a closer look. It was cold out and the parking in that area was full with no empty spots nearby. In an area with a history of witchcraft I thought it was cool to have a positive instead of somber memory of witches. Besides, what's not to like about Elizabeth Montgomery who portrayed a mischievous but well meaning witch. Growing up as a kid, I wished I had her powers. I hope the next time we're in the area we will be able to get a closer look and maybe a photo opportunity. read more
