Boston Witchcraft Tour Discount Tickets

Overview

Long before the infamous 1692 Salem witchcraft trials, the shadows of witchcraft loomed over Boston. Join the Boston Witchcraft Walk, a premier historical walking tour, that explores the chilling reality of colonial life, superstition, and the witch executions that gripped the city. Boston was the site of the 2nd witchcraft execution in New England in 1648. Over the next 40 years, four more women would face the gallows. Learn the tragic story of Goody Glover, the last woman executed for witchcraft in Massachusetts four years before the Salem hysteria. Discover the pivotal roles played by Reverends Increase and Cotton Mather and how Boston’s religious elite influenced the accusations that would eventually impact Salem. Walk the streets of downtown Boston to see where victims lived, the location of the former jail & the final resting places of those involved in the trials. Understand the 17th-century mindset where pacts with the devil were considered a tangible threat to the community.
