Overview

Salem, Massachusetts: a quaint, sleepy, Puritan settlement where nothing exciting happened…until peculiar things began to frighten the otherwise quiet community, and the fear of witches among them drove the village to its breaking point.

Known for the infamous 1692 Witch Trials, Salem offers the unique opportunity to dive into the true history of what actually happened in the very setting where these stories took place. Visit eight significant sites and learn what drove reasonable townsfolk to utter hysteria on this perfectly planned day trip from Boston.
