It was just OK

Stories were “so so”. It didn’t seem the like the guide was too much into her job. And it sort of ended flat.

Response from Host , Oct 2021

We tell stories of accidental death, murder and paranormal activity. The stories are entertaining and creepy. Many people enjoy the tour. We end with the story of the Blue Lady or the Haunted Hotel on Washington Street.

Could have been better.

Not very much about hauntings or the paranormal. And very little about the history of the sites. Only walked to 4 locations.

Response from Host , Oct 2021

We discuss accidental death, murder and paranormal activity on the tour. In some cases, we might stand in one spot and talk about a couple locations. Hence, we might go to four locations, but tell 8-10 stories.

Totally recommend!

We only had an afternoon in Salem and wanted some generalized spookiness, this tour was perfect! Our guide (his name escapes me) was absolutely amazing. My 8 year old is a very curious kid and he encouraged him to stay curious. You learn about the different variety of “ghosts” and several stories that revolve around Salem. It was such a good time we missed our ferry back into Boston!

The guide and tour were wonderful. But, our group had a out 40 people including babies in strollers. It would have been nicer to navigate with fewer people.
