Centuries ago, when New England was dominated by Puritans, Salem gained notoriety for its witchcraft trials. Nearly 400 years later, witches are still alive in Salem as this Massachusetts city throws a month-long Halloween party. Psychics, witches, warlocks, ghosts and goblins haunt the city for the annual event. There’s a Festival of the Dead at which people are encouraged to contact their dearly departed through psychic readings. Visitors can also tour haunted houses, take in a magic show, enjoy a carnival ride, listen to ghost stories or take in a spooky parade.
