This is the ORIGINAL tour created by Spellbound Tours in 2000!

Join supernatural expert Mollie Stewart, for an in-depth look at the tragic events that led to the Witchcraft Trials of Salem, in 1692. Find out what role Voodoo played in the hysteria that allowed 20 innocent victims to be executed. You’ll learn what Voodoo really is and where it is practiced today. These people were falsely accused of practicing witchcraft and “cavorting with Satan”, either by their neighbors or own family members! These accusations became so rampant that eventually over 150 people would be jailed in Salem, under conditions so terrible, that some of them died, before they were to be hung! Did you know that you had to pay for your own food and incarceration? Or that when you were accused of witchcraft, all your property and possessions were seized by the sheriff? You'll discover the use of "poppets" by witches and doll sorcery used in rituals today.

You’ll hear the poignant stories of many of these victims at the Witch Trials Memorial that was dedicated to them in August of 1992, as we walk past each memorial. You’ll hear their last, heroic statements before meeting their dark fates on Gallows Hill…and how the crowd was so moved by the final prayer of one victim, that they almost stopped his execution!

We’ll also visit the Old Burying Point Cemetery, one of the oldest cemeteries in Massachusetts, the site of the true "Witch Dungeon", and where Giles Corey was pressed to death. We’ll look at gravestone artwork and the symbolism of gravestone engravings. You’ll discover the eloquent epitaphs for the dead. You will also learn the offensive “burial” practices for those hung as witches.

Was the witchcraft hysteria a conspiracy born of greed, envy, jealousy and petty squabbles among neighbors? Or was it really the “Devil come to Salem”? Come on this tour and find out the truth!!!
