Old Salem's Ghost Self Guided Walking Tour

The journey, in full

The tour begins at the Salem Tavern Museum where you'll hear about George Washington the travelers who visited, and the spirits that stuck around. You'll walk through historic old Salem and see the squares, Gods Acre Cemetery, and the haunted streets and buildings. And you'll hear their history, the people that lived there, the Moravians, and their spirits that linger. The tour is all outside and can be taken anytime, 24/7/365. You'll stop outside the Single Brothers house and hear the story of who lived here, and about the little red man that haunts it today. You'll stop in the center of the Square and hear about the Moravians who founded the town. And the stories of the ghosts that are said to walk here now. This historic cemetery is different than others in how it's organized, the stones, and the spirits that rise. Down Church Street, you'll find the historic Salem College. Over the centuries many tragedies occurred here. You'll hear those stories and the possible ghosts that have been seen. The Single Sisters house once housed the single women of the Moravian community. Later it held students. Many of them still linger.
