The Salem Witch Museum recreates and examines a dark part of early American history. The Salem witch trials sound like a tale of fiction, merely folklore, but over 180 people were accused and imprisoned for practicing witchcraft with some convictions leading to death by hanging. If you were a witch or were accused of being one in 1692, Salem, Massachusetts was the last place you'd want to be and this museum is the best place to learn why.

If you're a book lover there's no better way to celebrate that than by visiting the Boston Public Library, the nation's second largest library. This huge library is home to around 6.1 million books, in addition to about 1.7 million rare books and manuscripts that feature records from colonial Boston, early works of William Shakespeare and the personal book collection of John Adams.

Beantown is one of the nation's oldest cities, and one that's home to a lot of history. So when you embark on an adventure with Ghosts & Gravestones of Boston, it's no wonder that there are plenty of supernatural stories to be told. Your guides dress to make the tour come to life and their antics will make walking through 400-year-old burial grounds all the more spooky. Prepare for a frightful and fulfilling journey through Boston learning about some of the most sinister people and events that have left their mark on the city.
