Witness reenactments of the Salem witch trials at Witch Dungeon Museum. The daily performances are based on historic manuscripts from the 1692 trials. The dramatic "possession" of Salem's young women led to the hanging of 19 people and two dogs. After watching the harrowing performance, you can tour the reconstructed dungeon below. You can save on the admission fee by purchasing a combination ticket that includes entry to three museums within walking distance of each other. For Witch Dungeon Museum and beyond, use our Salem day trip site to get the most from your Salem vacation.

Was very interesting history, although sad for all those that suffered. Salem was an awesome place to visit. I will be back

Good History yet a bit cheesy . Our tour was roughly 30/35 minutes which I felt was short but then again I can spend days in museums. Not really for the younger ages but if they enjoy the History it could be a good time for them

The building created a great atmosphere for the historical reenactments, the actors were all very knowledgeable about the topics covered and any all questions I'd think to ask were answered.
