A single accusation in Salem once ignited hysteria that reshaped history and haunted every crooked street. Secrets still cling to each weathered beam and lantern-lit alley.

Set out on a self-guided audio tour through the city, unearthing eerie tales, hidden havens, and the untold stories that locals rarely share. Move beyond museum walls to discover where scandal and silence collide.

Who risked everything to defy Salem’s most feared judges? What truths linger in The Witch House’s ancient shadows, waiting to be unearthed? Which vanished treasure once disappeared from the Peabody Museum’s locked rooms?

Wander through colonial parlors and witch trial relics as plots of rebellion and betrayal come alive around you. Trace gossip between stones, feel centuries tremble at your feet, and glimpse Salem through eyes sharpened for the astonishing.

If you’re ready to unlock these buried secrets, press play and let the real Salem reveal itself.
