Our tour was phenomenal. This was largely due to our tour guide whose name I cannot remember, but he had a strong southern accent. He was incredibly informative, fun, and made it overall an incredible experience. We have done many of these types of tours in Salem, and this was by far the best one. Thank you again for an incredible experience.

Erin our guide was fantastic! We had a great time. She had great stories and related to everybody in the group and made it feel very personal and intimate.

It was a nice walk around Salem, and Will was really personable, but I would recommend you guys get microphones to amplify the tour guides because it is not easy to hear while walking. I am also not sure I would constitute this as a “ghost tour” either. More of a sad/macabre/historical tour than anything. But still, it was fun to walk around and see the sights!

Sam was awesome and he talked about a lot of stuff that i did not know. He introduced history with scary stories and what i like is that it was intimate. He doesnt have a group of 30 people so he can connect better with the crowd.

Our guide, Sam, was very informative and engaging. It was fun seeing all the old haunted homes and the hocus pocus questions were also fun

Sam was so awesome! He told great stories and shared previous photos of paranormal activity that was seen on his tours. Would recommend!

Cara was great, there were lots of other tours on our route but she avoided them and kept our stories fresh without being spoiled by the groups around us. It was a small group which I think is a much better experience.
