Think the stories are just stories? Come find out for yourself.
Join us for a guided ghost hunt inside one of Salem’s oldest buildings - an atmospheric 125-year-old basement with a long, unsettling history. Using real paranormal investigation equipment like EMF detectors, spirit boxes, REM Pods, and EVP recorders, you’ll explore the space with our experienced team as we attempt to make contact with whatever may still be lingering in the dark.
These hunts aren’t scripted. They’re raw, unpredictable, and often surprising. We’ll share past activity we’ve encountered, teach you how to use the tools of the trade, and then open the floor - literally - for you to experience it firsthand.
Whether you're a seasoned ghost hunter or a curious skeptic, this is your chance to step beyond the stories and into the silence, static, and shadows.
Space is extremely limited. Advance registration is required.
