Jeffrey’s tour was a blast! He delivered a ton of information, from history to pop culture influences, in a delightfully cheeky manner. Murder, literature, and information about beds - all there.
The walk itself is very accessible and covers a variety of historical places. We had a group member who required an electric wheelchair, and they were able to navigate the sidewalks and streets with ease.
As an aside, I highly recommend listening to his podcast, Salem The Podcast, to enhance your experience further. I learned so much about Salem thanks to Jeffrey and his podcast partner, Sarah.
If you want an evening of historical entertainment that is delivered in a fun way and an intimate group, Jeffrey is your guy.
When you hear people talk about Salem, often times the first thing that comes to mind is Witches, and Halloween, and ghosts and spooky fun, but there's so much more lurking in the shadows. Salem is nearly 400 years old and just like all of us, it has a dark side. An underbelly wrought with stories for the ages. Join us for our 90 min evening walking tour as we wander through the shadows and hear stories about pirates and pepper, secrets of the oldest cemetery in Salem, brutal murders, strange legal battles, curses, spiders, torture, and of course a ghost story or two. We invite you to be part of our story and Uncover Salems dark past. -All tour guides are licensed by the City of Salem and are professional storytellers .
