We've taken about 150 pics so far. I'll post a few more later on. If there's anything in particular you'd like to see let me know. Maybe I took a picture of it.

Last night 'twas witching Hallowe'en
Dearest; an apple russet- brown
I pared, and thrice above my crown
Whirled the long skin; they watched in keen;
I flung it far; they laughed and cried me shame
Dearest, there lay the letter of your name!

These are great pics!
I love the graveyard, the witch's grave with the flowers, Essex Street looks great.
Some day I'm going!

Thanks for sharing, October!

Incredible pictures...I really want to do this someday and just soak up that atmosphere and culture...it must be amazing to sense all that energy around there and the sights.

I hope one day I can take that experience with me as well...

Thank you for sharing those pics.

Sure thing. I'll post some more tonight. We're going back to Salem today for the Haunted Happenings cruise. It's an hour long cruise where they tell us some ghost and pirate stories from the area.

I was doing some research last night and found out where some scenes of Hocus Pocus were filmed. I'm gonna find em today :) Turns out we walked right past the house that was used for the exterior of Alison's house in the movie. I also roughly figured out where the Denison's house was so I'm going to look for it and annoy the owners by taking pics in front of it.
