    Wandering Witches

    Salem, Massachusetts, is infamously known for its witches; specifically the Salem witch trials of the late-1600s. A guided walking tour of this city’s spooky history is a popular activity and this experience is even more unique thanks to its exclusive guide. You’ll roam around Salem with a real practicing witch for an unscripted tour. Ask them anything you choose, whether it be about the history of the witch trials or about what it’s like to be involved in contemporary witchcraft.

    This walking tour stands out for its guide: you roam Salem with a real practicing witch on an unscripted route, and you can ask them anything you like, from the history of the witch trials to what it is like to be involved in contemporary witchcraft. Because it is unscripted, it goes where your questions take it, which suits curious travelers who want a conversation rather than a fixed presentation.

    Salem is best known for the 1692 witch trials, and there are many ways to explore that story, but the firsthand-guide angle here is different from a standard history walk or a scripted ghost tour. If you value candid, direct answers and a personal perspective over a rehearsed script, this format fits. Expect a walking tour of the city's spooky history, paced by the give-and-take with your guide.
