North Andover
Witchcraft History Tour
(90 Minute Tour)
This tour is in North Andover, MA; about 20 miles North of Salem, MA
Everyone has heard of the 1692 Salem Witchcraft Trials but they may not realize that it is named after Salem because that is where the court was located and where people were hanged. But the trials encompassed nearly all the towns north of Boston. Andover, about 20 miles northwest of Salem, had 45 accusations of witchcraft that was more than any other community. The town had a population of 600 people and half of them were involved in the trials as an accuser or an accused, juror or constable.
