Sinister Stories of Salem

I was the subject of Mrs. Connelly’s photography class this morning. I was directed by a student to “smile supernaturally.” The students had some questions about the witch trials. I worked into the answer, “ They were Not witches.” Happy to take the phrase from Donna Amelia Vinson Seger.

Hamilton Hall
9 Chestnut Street
Salem, Massachusetts

A picturesque scene of Salem.

The Assembly Hall opened a week after Christmas in 1805 is Named in honor of Major General Alexander Hamilton. There are four original wood panels depicting festoons of cloth prominently displayed on the Chestnut Street side of the building. These were carved in the workshop of the architect and wood carver Samuel McIntire. An eagle is among the panels but the original eagle is now inside of the building and gilded and painted.

Woodman’s almost all of October. If I can help it. I’m going to try everything on the menu at least once. I like a meal without dishes or a messy kitchen.

If you are in Salem this October and are thinking of traveling beyond Salem for more of the New England experience. Consider Woodman’s in historic Essex, Massachusetts. The woodman family came to Massachusetts in 1636. Started the restaurant by the picturesque Essex marsh land in 1914.

This is one of my favorite places in Salem, Massachusetts. This a elegant hall for a your next party.

Your experience begins as you enter The Hall, see the master stairwell, and listen to your heart. Proceed up the stairs to the Grand Ballroom with its famous spring frame floor designed by Samuel McIntire for effortless dancing, next view the antique gilded mirrors and Italian chandelier. The moment...
