Ghosts of Christmas Past a Haunted Holiday Stroll in Salem

About this activity

“Ghosts of Christmas Past”: a Haunted Holiday Stroll

Uncover Salem’s fascinating and ghostly holiday history, from strict Puritan bans on Christmas making it illegal even to celebrate, to Victorian Holiday ghost stories originally told around the fireside. With warm Yuletide cheer, we examine ancient customs of Yule and other Pagan winter solstice traditions of Krampus, Frau Perchten “the Christmas Witch”, and Mary Lwyd!

Spend your holiday season with us for a storytelling experience you’ll never forget.
