The tour beautifully blended history with well crafted ghost stories that made the historical details even more memorable. Wear comfortable, supportive shoes because you will be walking and standing quite a bit--your feet and lower back will thank you! This was an excellent tour, and I would absolutely take it again.

She has so many behind the scenes knowledge of the movie, I was thoroughly impressed. Oh, she also had a candy bucket! Cant ever go wrong with candy. Thank you Hilary for opening our day in such a positive way. My second walking tour was the history and hauntings of Salem. Our tour guide was Claire and she was great. She was able to keep the attention of our 13 yo son, no small feat these days. However, her story telling and live of history kept him into the walk and he didn't complain once. Thank you Claire for giving us a great tour of Salem and completing our night out!

There was never a dull moment with the stories he told - each story built off of the previous one, and really answered a lot of the questions I had about Salem's history.

Welcome, Come hear the Ghostly secrets of Salem you won’t hear anywhere else! This is not like the other tours in Salem. You will be led around town by a Vampire for starters! While all the stories I will relate to you are true, this is not just a historical tour. We will be talking about vampires, ghosts, and spiritual phenomenon around this unique town. Experience the mystery and wonder of these tales. I will tell you what people have seen, heard, and experienced, and show you where these things happened. You will decide what you can believe or not believe. But I assure you, the reports of these incidents are all true. And there’s more than you might think! Now, How many here believe in ghosts? How many have had experiences with the paranormal? I myself am what is called a “sensitive” to an extent, But I’m a skeptic first. I don’t automatically assume the supernatural. And yet I have had spiritual experiences that I cannot explain. Come with me and I will tell you things and show you places the other tours won’t! And you will actually enter Chambers of Terror to see some Haunted Objects! The only walking tour in Salem where you actually enter a building!

The tour lasted about one hour and thirty minutes which included a few stops in front of some iconic landmarks and monuments such as the first membership Library, the Witch House, Ropes Mansion, Salem Inn, Old Town Hall and Chestnut Street. To say it was nostalgic visiting some staples I have marveled in the movie Hocus Pocus is an understatement. Seeing Max and Dani's house, Allison's house and the Old Town Hall up close brought me back to my 5 year old self. If you have not learned about the Witch Trials or don't care to, no problem! However, if you find that Salem, MA is on your bucket list of places to go to, I would maybe listen to a podcast or read up on the trials beforehand because it's a lot of history to take in. I couldn't leave Salem without buying my own witch hat of course. Some things I recommend on a tour: 1) Dress comfortably and warm (if in the fall) it is cold and windy at this time and you will be walking over cobblestone most of the time 2) Wear a festive hat! I wore my witch hat 3) Make sure you use the restroom before you go on the tour.

The tour guide, Kenneth, is amazing! He had a huge impact on my visit to Salem even though my only time spent with him was on the tour. He's an amazing guide, performer, and story-teller with a great heart. I can't say enough good stuff about him! I booked this tour the morning of, and I decided to take a 5pm show. I guess that was a little early because no one else was there! When Kenneth showed up, I asked him if he would rather me wait for the later tour but he said it was up to me and does not mind taking me on the tour by myself. Wow... What a cool treat! Especially since it was so cheap for about 3 hours of his time (about twice as long as the original time posted). So I agreed and we proceeded to walk. I don't want to give away all of the details, but seriously, if you love history and theatre, take this tour! Kenneth acts out the scenes at almost every place we stopped. He had tons of information about Salem and lots of mind-boggling personal stories as well. He sings beautiful, heart-wrenching songs that he wrote. You can tell that he put a lot of work and thought into making this the best tour in Salem (I went on 4 tours while I was there and they were pretty mediocre). Kenneth said that he also changes up the tour so you will get something different every time you take it! It will not disappoint! Oh and at the end, there's an amazing surprise. Keep an open mind and have fun! If you're in Salem, you should already have an open-mind. I had such an amazing time that I tipped Kenneth well at the end of the tour. It was well worth the $15-20 (I can't remember) I paid for the tour. I really appreciated everything he did and I will be touring with him on my next visit to Salem!

I would rate this 3.5/5, but unfortunately there aren't .5 stars. During my visit to Salem in early October 2024, I joined the Bewitched Walking Tour on a Monday with Jobian as our guide. A Salem native, he was incredibly knowledgeable and passionate about the city's history. Despite the rainy weather, he kept the tour engaging, shared useful tips - like the best places to find restrooms - and even had a security guard to help keep our group safe and out of traffic. The tour cost $37.10 when I attended, and while I appreciated the experience, there were a few drawbacks. The biggest issue was the group size - even on a Monday afternoon in the rain, our group was massive, stretching around a corner from our meeting point at the Halloween Museum. Jobian had a microphone, but it was still difficult to hear him at times, especially if you fell behind while taking pictures. For example at the cemetery area, he moved so fast that I didn't hear everything he said. Thankfully, moving around within the group especially if we had a stop helped a bit. Another downside was that the tour was advertised as running from 1:00 to 3:00 PM, but we finished well before 3:00. For the price, I expected the full duration. Overall, I enjoyed the historical insights and Jobian's enthusiasm, but the large crowds, difficulty hearing, and shorter-than-advertised length made the experience a bit less enjoyable than I had hoped. read more

We took this walking tour with Jeff on October 1st with my teen and young adult children. It went over and above our expectations. Jeff is clearly passionate about the subject matter with an almost encyclopedic knowledge. I learned things that no other tour offers. This is a serious, historical look at the witch trials and raises relevant questions in a sensitive and respectful tone. Add in that Jeff has keen and sensitive people skills with a sense of humor. If you are homeschooling teens this tour is fantastic. Jeff has primary source material and court documents that can be accessed after the tour to use as curriculum. Due to COVID restrictions these guys are working at half capacity. It is a good time to take advantage of a more intimate tour, but please tip your guide! They are working hard and we need them to stay in business for many years. Thank you for a memorable and meaning experience. We will definitely be back. read more

A HUGE shoutout to Sarah. If you do ANY tour, do this one. My wife and I overheard her giving a tour and she invited us to come the next day, and we were not disappointed. If you're looking for the historical side of the tour, from a historian, look no further. If you want something else stop reading this and browse to a different tour. She does amazing at giving light and life to the history without putting you to sleep like your old high school coach/history teacher. The tour will guide you through many of the key points in the city and Sarah will talk you through the somber events that happened of the time. She does this all with a great pitch and making sure not to lose the crowd and that everyone can hear her. She also goes above and beyond by saying what places are great to grab a bite or a snack. 10 out of 10 would recommend. if you read this much, just go take the tour with Sarah, and you will not be disappointed. read more
