My understanding is that Salem on Halloween is pretty crazy. If you want to visit a historic place and learn the real story behind the witch trials I suggest checking out the Rebecca Nurse Homestead in Danvers. You can watch a presentation about the witch trials and tour her Homestead. She was in her 70s when she was executed for witchcraft and her story was the basis of the Crucible, written by Arthur Miller. You can tour the family graveyard on the property. It’s real history and is very respectful of the people who were caught up in the witch trials. I am a direct descendent of Rebecca Nurse.
