Is it too early or are you ?

We are back with another pumpkin spice post! We've read the DMs and the verdict is still out if it's too soon or not for pumpkin spice. Either way, we are dreaming of this pumpkin beer from Rockafellas 🎃

Victims. Men and Women. Not Witches. Innocent men and women.

We know it is difficult to understand with the modern influx of Witchcraft Practitioners in Salem, but it is possible for both things to be true, and for those same modern Witches to pay their respects without the Victims being Witches themselves.

Please honor both.

And as always, please ask if you have questions. We don't care whose tour you took, or whose book you read, podcast you listened to, whatever. We have time for you. We just want you to know the truth, and to understand the importance of what occurred here, so that it never happens again.

Great show; older kids will love it.

Happy Fourth! There’s no better way to start Independence Day than by reflecting on the history that brought us here and the civic responsibility that goes with it. Three Huzzahs and a giant thank you to this year’s Declaration reader and the Salem Common Neighborhood Association!

The Puritans would definitely frown upon this.

We are huge fans of Georgia Wrenn!

In 2017, Wrenn was just a kid who loved to draw monsters. But with some help from her dad, an experienced Fenway Park street vendor, she developed a brand — Georgia Made This — and a $100,000 college fund.

Good, clean fun at Kids' Pub tonight. Only 8 spots left. We'd say "seats" but with all the dancing and games, your kiddos will probably only sit for the food and a lantern-lit story. $6 per ticket goes to performing arts in the Salem Schools via . , , , , , , , ,

Our Story

Wicked Fun!

Salem’s acclaimed tour for children and families; the only tour of its kind. Kids love this tour, and our visitors say it’s a “must do” for families. This is Salem’s only walking tour for children, families, and the young-at-heart. The one-hour outdoor walking tour is led by a costumed, licensed guide who has lived in Salem for nearly 20 years. You will hear the truth about the Witchcraft Trials, along with stories about a missing ship, a moving graveyard, and a very mysterious phone call. Please check our calendar at the website to see our full schedule and to purchase. "Prudence" is a full time teacher and her teaching schedule does not allow tours on school days. Visit SalemKidsTours.com to book your tour securely online. We do not have paper tickets, and tickets are NOT available at our meeting spot, Pamplemousse. Please allow more time than you think you will need for parking and a restroom stop. Tours leave on time. Text Prudence with any changes in your plans. 978-766-1103. See you soon on a tour, and happy haunting!
