Fodor's Expert Review Salem Witch Museum

An informative and fascinating introduction to Salem's witchcraft hysteria, this museum offers a look at 1692 with 13 life-size stage sets featuring narration of what life was like at that time, plus a 15-minute guided tour through the exhibit Witches: Evolving Perceptions, which describes witch hunts through the years. Tickets are sold online exclusively. In winter, the museum might not open in bad weather. Call ahead.
