  • For some reason, they have not converted the amazingly spooky Salem Jail into an attraction. It is by far the scariest looking building in town. It's gated off with "No trespassing" signs everywhere. The fact that there is a cemetary just behind it just adds to the spookiness. We walked up there to have a look around. Unlike the Burying Point cemetary in the center of town, this one is pretty much deserted. The graves are old, from the 1800's, and a lot of the people there died very young, 20's or younger even.

     Your descriptions of places to visit, like the Salem Witch Museum were brief but very informative in all the things you would need to know if you planned on going there.

     Sounds like the Porta-Potties are the real horror of Salem on the night of Halloween. Didn't realise you had buildings built before the great fire of London.Gr8 pages.Tim

     Really enjoyed reading these tips. To think that I'm so close by and have never seen Salem in action on Halloween. Shame on me!
