BEST PLACES IN SALEM | The Witch House, Hocus Pocus Locations, Etc.
I sincerely hope you enjoy this video and find it helpful. Cheers to fall, Salem, and Halloween!
A few things I forgot to mention:
If you're a photographer looking for a beautiful street with gorgeous old homes, Salem has plenty, but Chestnut Street is stunning and definitely worth a walk down. Close to Essex street and the Ropes Mansion.
I went on the candlelit ghost tour at night and definitely would recommend it - tickets can be purchased near the Burying Point Cemetery. You'll see signs.
Turner's Seafood and Bambolina Restaurant (pizza) were the only places we stopped at for food and both were amazing.

[Wikipedia] Ropes Mansion
The Ropes Mansion (late 1720s), also called Ropes Memorial, is a Georgian Colonial mansion located at 318 Essex Street, located in the McIntire Historic District in Salem, Massachusetts. It is now operated by the Peabody Essex Museum and open to the public.
The house was built for Samuel Barnard, a merchant. In 1768, Judge Nathaniel Ropes, Jr., purchased the house from Barnard's nephew. The Ropes family then inhabited the house until 1907, when the house was given to the Trustees of the Ropes Memorial for public benefit.
Although altered through the years and then restored, the house looks much like its original form, with a symmetrical facade of two stories, three small pedimented gables through the roof, roof balustrade, and modillioned cornice. (Compare it to the Crowninshield-Bentley House and the Peirce-Nichols House, also in Salem.) In 1807, however, its interior was extensively renovated. In the mid-1830s five rooms and the central hall were remodelled, and today's doorway installed (with details inspired by Asher Benjamin's pattern book. In 1894 the house was moved away from the street and further modified internally. A large, fine garden was added behind the house in 1912.

Salem, Massachusetts
Salem is a city in Essex County, Massachusetts, in the United States. The population was 41,340 at the 2010 census. Salem and Lawrence were the county seats of Essex County prior to the abolishment of county government in 1999. Home to Salem State University , the Salem Willows Park and the Peabody Essex Museum , Salem is a residential and tourist area which includes the neighborhoods of Salem Neck, The Point, South Salem and North Salem, Witchcraft Heights, Pickering Wharf, and the McIntire Historic District (named after Salem's famous architect and carver, Samuel McIntire) . Salem was one of the most significant seaports in early America.
Featured notably in Arthur Miller's The Crucible, much of the city's cultural identity is reflective of its role as the location of the Salem witch trials of 1692: Police cars are adorned with witch logos, a local public school is known as the Witchcraft Heights Elementary School, the Salem High School athletic teams are named the Witches; and Gallows Hill, a site of numerous public hangings, is currently used as a playing field for various sports. Tourists know Salem as a mix of important historical sites, New Age and Wiccan boutiques, kitschy Halloween, witch-themed attractions and a vibrant downtown that has more than 60 restaurants, cafes and coffee shops. In 2012, the Retailers Association of Massachusetts chose Salem as the recipient of their inaugural Best Shopping District award.

Greater Boston Video: 'Turner & The Sea' On Display At Peabody Essex Museum
It's a coup for the Peabody Essex Museum. This summer, the Salem exhibit hall is the only place in the United States where you can see more than 100 works by the British master J.M.W. Turner. He's known for his landscapes, but the Peabody Essex is making waves with an unusual show looking at Turner's lifelong fascination with water. The show just opened last weekend, and WGBH News Arts Editor Jared Bowen has already seen it.

25 Of The World's Most Haunted Hotels
With Halloween coming up, we have compiled another spooky list that will keep you up all night. While most tourists usually try to avoid staying at haunted hotels at all cost, there are people out there who are attracted to these creepy places. If you are one of these weirdly adventurous travelers, you will certainly enjoy this post featuring 25 Of The World's Most Haunted Hotels. Sites of various crimes, accidents and other tragic stories, haunted hotels can be found all over the world. While some of the haunted hotels have turned their bleak reputation into an effective marketing tool to attract curious tourists, others wish nobody knew about their horrifying legacy. In these 25 Of The World's Most Haunted Hotels, things like moaning, screaming, mysterious sounds, eerie apparitions, furniture that move by itself and other unexplainable phenomena are not unusual. From the feared Welsh Skirrid Mountain Inn where guests often feel invisible ropes tightening around their necks to the haunted Taj Mahal Palace Hotel in India where tens of people were brutally murdered in a terrorist attack, staying at any of these 25 Of The World's Most Haunted Hotels is definitely not recommended for the faint-hearted. (But you're not faint-hearted are you? We didn't think so).
