Learn more about Salem

Venture into America's most notorious witch hunt at the Salem Witch Museum, where the hysteria of 1692 comes alive through dramatic exhibits. The Witch House—the only structure still standing with direct ties to the trials—offers a glimpse into 17th-century Puritan life. Between haunted histories, duck into the world-class Peabody Essex Museum for a completely different cultural experience. The cobblestone streets of downtown reveal quirky shops selling everything from spell books to locally crafted potions. Take a breather at Salem Willows Park, where the seaside carousel and arcade games provide a cheerful counterpoint to the town's darker attractions. For the full experience, book one of the evening ghost tours led by guides who know which corners harbor the most compelling stories.
