I have another pro tip, lets talk bathrooms. A lot of the places, don't have public restrooms (unless its a restaurant), and sometimes even having signs that they are out of order. They have gotten better by adding port a potties if you are really in a pinch. But if you are on Essex street (which is mostly cobblestones, you will know what i mean) there is a small mall, in the back of the mall behind the pizza place is a restroom. And as you mentioned 10 am is when most things open in town, so you don't have to wake up at the crack of dawn. If you see the a guy dressed up as Nosferatru, say hello hes a friend of mine.
They have a ton of porter potties now on Essex st on front of the old court house BRING A FLASHLIGHT AND CHECK THE POTTY BEFORE YOU EVEN DARE GO INTO THEM LAST YEAR I ALMOST DIDN'T CHECK OUT THE PORTER POTTIES AND OMG HORRIFIED BY THE CONDITION AND THE SMELL PLEASE DON'T FORGET A FLASHLIGHT TO LOOK BEFORE YOU SIT YOÙR BUM DOWN I DON'T SIT ON THE SEAT PART O CROUCH DOWN TO PEE YUCKY TO REMEMBER THAT AND I WAS ENJOYING MY CUP OF COFFEE UNTIL I RECALLED THAT NIGHT OMG OH ONE MORE THING DO NOT HO WALKING AROUND TWARDS THE LAFAYETTE HOTEL AREA ITS NOT SAFE IT BLOWS MY MIND EVERY YEAR I THINK ABOUT HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE NO IDEA WHAT GOES ON ONLY A 5 MINUTE WALK DOWN TOWARDS THAT AREA PLEASE DON'T NOT EVEN DURING IN THE DAY TIME STAY CLEAR OF LAFAYETTE STREET IN SALEM ITS DANGEROUS AND TELL PEOPLE THAT ARE HEADING THAT WAY PASS. THIS INFORMATION ON OTHER WISE HAVE A VERY GOOD TIME
First, thank you for this video. As a wedding present we got three nights stay at a B&B in Salem, which we are doing this spring and your video is the best one I have found so far!! Also, if you love creepy cemeteries....In Tarrytown, NY about 40 minutes north of Manhattan (not sure how long it would take you from Philly) lays the Sleep Hollow Cemetery which inspired Washington Irvings' The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. The cemetery is BEAUTIFUL and has some amazing mosoleums (obviously Rockafellers is by far the largest and most ornate). You can grab a map and walk for hours. I highly reccomend.
omg! thanks for the kind words. We went to sleepy hollow last Oct, I also have a vlog and a what to do/what not to do video on it as well! We had a blast there too. we loved that sleepy hollow cemetery! we also did the Rockefeller house there, sooo cool! Check out that vlog if you want to see :)
I recommend staying in Marblehead, you will be 5-10 mins outside of Salem, and the direction you come from there is no traffic. Prices are also better there, staying in Salem you will be paying more, the place I stay is 2 rooms connected for 200 a night. If anyone is planning on going and needs some info or tips please lemme know.
@@LizzieMarie Marblehead has incredible views, as well as the graveyard in Hocus Pocus where Max loses his shoes. I definitely should make a video as I just got a new camera.
@@corrinterrell9668 I stay at a bed and breakfast, which is called seagull inn. And they have many other B&B's in Marblehead just do a quick search you can find some with really good prices.
Wonderful video!! I visited Salam a few years ago and am revisiting tomorrow, but I hate how almost every building they charge to view it. Kind of takes the fun out of it for me, but it’s definitely cool to walk around and see everything from the outside.
Witch house, house of 7 gables worth it. Witch history museum not so much You can get same info from other tours. There is hidden info about salem. Go walk into shops and there's more tours than mentioned in pamphlets seance too. To me you need longer. There's even a castle. Hammond Castle. Trolley is worth it. There's so much to do if you do a little more research.
Super insightful! Everything from the restaurants to the Lizzie Bordon house are helping me plan the perfect vacation for me and my significant other. Thank you!
Yay!!! Thank you 😁 I’m so glad this video helped. I made it because when I was trying to plan my trip there was nothing else like it online so I wanted to help. But Have a great trip you guys will love it
Went to a freaks antiques and oddity show today in salem as it's about 1.5 hours away. Well my daughter was bored. so my wife and I are going back for an overnight.. thanks for this video
My husband and I just decided to take a long weekend trip to Salem in Oct. and this was super helpful! Thanks for the tip about the Lizzie Borden house also, we’d totally be into that! Btw we’re from the Philly area too!! :)
So awesome, you guys will have a great time! Thanks for the positive feedback it means so much. I hope you have a great trip! It’s a nice little change from philly 😉
Trolley Tours are amazing 👏😍! We know that we're a "Tourist place", therefore we look forward to the financial revenue that Tourists bring. As a Salem Resident, some years the Season is good, some not so good (Pandemic caused)
My boyfriend and I have a trip planned to Salem in October (crossing our fingers Covid permitting) and this video was SO helpful! Thank you for all your details - much appreciated
Naomi E I’m from NJ and as of now I’m able to travel to MA without having to quarantine - hoping it stays that way! I booked a hotel that allows cancellations up until the day before check in so if travel restrictions change I can cancel & get my money back! I looked up all the activities she talks about in this video and as of now the only thing closed until further notice is the Lizzie Borden house, but hopefully with time it’ll open 😊 other than that everything is operating at a lesser capacity which is understandable. Fingers crossed it works out!
My husband and I are heading out there the second week of October this year and I'm hoping there won't be too much effected by Covid! But honestly, I think it won't be bad for two reasons: a lot of people probably won't be taking trips there this year so I don't think it will be as crowded as it might be otherwise and second I feel like most of the activity in Salem takes place outdoors anyway. Fingers crossed!
My friend and I are taking a girls trip the second to last week of October and I’m so excited. Thank you for running down the cost of expenses because we are trying to prebook a lot of the attractions. I’m from Oklahoma so it’s still pretty warm in October so I’m trying to get a good feel for what the weather will be like. Anyway wanted to say great video thank you, sounds like you 3 had a wonderful time.
Aw thank you so much I’m glad you enjoyed the video!! The weather when I went in late October was like perfect fall weather. When the sun was out during the day it was warm with a slight chill and at night slightly colder but really great weather all around. Prob 50s I guess. & that’s so awesome you’re traveling all that way! I have family in Oklahoma in the Lawton area. Ive visited many times :) hope you and your friend enjoy your trip!
*Best Hotel is the Hawthorne*, plan a year or two in advance best bet. Coming at last minute (I've done it years ago), you will probably end up staying in towns near Salem, called Danvers or Peabody
Right!!! Me and my bf said the same thing. So cute and everyone was so nice! Shocking for people from Philly 😂 but I’ve heard the winters are pretty bad there so maybe just for the fall-summer months lol
Fall is the best in Massachusetts, I don’t live in Salem but I live in a city near Salem. In the summers it can get unbearably hot, in the winter it get freezing, and spring is mostly rain and cloudy sky’s. Fall is the best in my opinion, at least where I live in Massachusetts.
@@vaeh9793 yes I used to live in upstate New York like not far from Massachusetts like maybe 2 hours, the winters were awful they got so much snow but the Summers were not that hot not like North Carolina. This past year Salem Massachusetts didn't get hardly any storms.
Divine Crossing Oh I apologize for making it seem that it’s how it was, I meant to say in my opinion since I thought it was very very hot 😅 but I also would love to move to Salem. Once again I apologize for that.
75 year old guy here. Never been, but I'm afraid of the 9 dollar coffee, ticket booths, annoying commercialism everywhere, a Hari Krispi guy giving me a flower, etc. etc. When I just want the feel of where the actual trial happened, a feel of the grounds, and not have costumed people all around me. Oh, well, the cemetary if it actually has 1600s residences.
Thanks for the info, you didn't mention all the Wicca shops and stuff that you purchased outside of the sweatshirt. What weekend in October were you there? Would you recommend reservations at restaurants? How crowded was downtown? 🎃
I actually didn’t purchase anything other than the sweatshirt! There are for sure plenty of wicca shops and items to buy but that’s personally not my thing! We were there the weekend of October 20th, so the weekend before Halloween weekend. Like I say in the video all the restaurants were very crowded and we had to wait at every one we went to, personally that’s not an issue for me and it was never longer than 20 mins or so, so I didn’t bother. If you’re someone who that would annoy then for sure make reservations. I just personally didn’t want my time during the day to be ruled around a reservation time if that makes sense. & downtown was crowded but not insane. Check out my vlogs I did of the weekend if you want to actually see what it was like!
@@LizzieMarie Thanks for the reply, I'll check out the vlog. If this was weekend before Halloween I should be ok I may make a few reservations for dinner. I got some of my tix already, too bad the H7G and Witch Museum don't have options to pre purchase your tix. Any ghost walk tour recommendations? I like the Salem Trolly idea. Is parking a huge issue or is there plenty of options? I def want to do the Lizzie Boarden B&B, do you need a ticket for that tour or is it only for people staying at the B&B?
Deff try to go to the witch museum as early as possible! We went as soon as we got in Salem and the earliest ticket time available was for like 3pm or way later that night so try to go there ASAP to make sure you fit that in! We didn’t do any ghost walks so I can’t personally recommend any but I know there are abunch of them and just from passing by and briefly listening to all the different ones they seem to be very similar! I’m sure whichever you pick will be great! We stayed at a hotel about 20 mins away and took Uber in and out of Salem every day we were there so I’m not sure about parking however I assume it’s mobbed! & for the Lizzie Borden House you do need tickets, they’re $20 and we just purchased them when we got there! Double check on the website but I’m pretty sure there are tours every hour there so I’m sure you’ll get in!
@@LizzieMarie Was the hotel nice? I am staying in Danvers and I think it's pretty close. I was hoping for a bus if parking is crazy. Yea I'll do the Witch Museum first thing on a morning I can get out to town early. Yea I'll have to do Lizzie Borden house as I'm heading home. Would you go again in October or would you prefer another visit another month of the year?
Yes the hotel was great! I forget the name but I show it in the vlog and the price for 3 of us for 3 nights was great! Uber’s there and back between 3 of us weren’t bad at all either. I think everyone has to go at least once during the Halloween season. It’s 100% worth it! Since I have already done the Halloween season I think I would like to experience it during an off month just to see it in a different light. But that’s not to say I wouldn’t do it again in Halloween. I had an amazing trip/experience through and through! I would recommend going in October to anyone who likes halloween and doesn’t mind crowds/the occasional line wait! 10000% worth it
Hey Lizzie, I'll be heading into Salem in 10 days, from the 9th to the 15th, I wondered if there was anything you wanted me to cover etc while I was up there, let me know.
The breakdown is super helpful i been looking on line for cost and more of an idea of what to expect and this hits every thing I want to do so thank you 😊 I’m planning on going September 2020
I’m so happy it was helpful! Before my trip I was also searching for a video like this but couldn’t find any so I wanted to make one for other peopl! I hope you have a great time 🤩
Are you talking about any time of the year? Or specifically during Octoberish? If you’re talking about around Halloween like October then absolutely not! Everyone young to old was dressed up! It was awesome and everyone compliments and enjoys others costumes
I think a long weekend would be perfect. So like a fri-Monday. That’s what we did and we had so much extra time but because you will be traveling far and might want to rest a long weekend would be great for you. I think you’ll get everything you want to get done and not be rushed!
Lizzie Marie thank you for your respond. We actually are going to be there for five days. We are probably extending our vacation more than we should, but if we get everything done, we may go visit different places in Massachusetts and may even travel to nearby states. I just didn’t want us to pay so mush for plane tickets for such little time.
Many do not know Original Salem Is now Danvers, when the witch hysteria happened it split into 2. Danvers and Salem town current day Salem. Salem was known before all this was known as Naumkeag it was a fishing and nautical port town. Many street performers and people dressed up like Borah the witch, Mike Meyers, jack Skellington, Brandon etc. that are there to meet and pics. This is there job. Please be respectful. On tours don't follow the behind the tour on purpose it's considered theft. many cross sections at traffic intersections wait for the crossing signs there is a countdown. Sometimes police navigate crossing otherwise cross at will but be respectful of traffic many drivers will let you cross and wait. yellow line through Salem; is Salem's heritage trail. Many locals are very friendly and will answer quick questions but be respectful of people and properties. Parking can be expensive there are places however don't park in front of peoples properties or no parking areas they will tow. lastly breakfast and certain attractions and tours can get filled quick so be up early or sign up for events ahead of time. Salem is pet friendly, and pride friendly almost everyone regardless of what you are feels accepted. These are some things i wish i knew before i visited.
Sooooo this is my first time watching aaaaand I paused the video to comment how sad I am for you that you didn't hear "THE RAVEN" 😔 Smh. Great job on the video!
Salem Village is referring to the surrounding towns around The City Of Salem. Peabody, Beverly , and Danvers. This is where many of the Salem Witch Trials actually took place. Here's a link explaining this from ToSalem.ua-cam.com/video/_zQSd1dd3Bw/v-deo.html
hmm this was a few years ago so it's hard to tell now but I'd say about $20ish each way and we only really used uber twice a day to get into town in the morning and back to hotel at night so maybe a little over $100 for the whole weekend then split between 3 so It really wasn't bad at all!
I have another pro tip, lets talk bathrooms. A lot of the places, don't have public restrooms (unless its a restaurant), and sometimes even having signs that they are out of order.

Thanks for telling me about the witch house! Didn’t know about it
Sure!! It was very cool, and probably one of the more notable / photographed things in Salem !
If you had a teen or kid, could they dress up? Or would they be dimmed weird because it’s not Halloween?
Are you talking about any time of the year? Or specifically during Octoberish? If you’re talking about around Halloween like October then absolutely not! Everyone young to old was dressed up! It was awesome and everyone compliments and enjoys others costumes
My fiancé and I are going to Salem this October. However, we are coming from Los Angeles, how many days do you recommend for us to stay there?
I think a long weekend would be perfect. So like a fri-Monday. That’s what we did and we had so much extra time but because you will be traveling far and might want to rest a long weekend would be great for you. I think you’ll get everything you want to get done and not be rushed!

Parking can be expensive there are places however don't park in front of peoples properties or no parking areas they will tow. lastly breakfast and certain attractions and tours can get filled quick so be up early or sign up for events ahead of time. Salem is pet friendly, and pride friendly almost everyone regardless of what you are feels accepted. These are some things i wish i knew before i visited.

Salem city is the city, salem Village is a museum. Salem has 3 hotels and many many inns
Ahhh makes sense! Everyone was referring to it in different ways haha. Thanks for watching :)
Salem Village is referring to the surrounding towns around The City Of Salem. Peabody, Beverly , and Danvers. This is where many of the Salem Witch Trials actually took place. Here's a link explaining this from ToSalem.ua-cam.com/video/_zQSd1dd3Bw/v-deo.html

Can you guess how much you sent on Uber?
hmm this was a few years ago so it's hard to tell now but I'd say about $20ish each way and we only really used uber twice a day to get into town in the morning and back to hotel at night so maybe a little over $100 for the whole weekend then split between 3 so It really wasn't bad at all!
665$.. Holy shit, that's pretty close to a certain number I know of. (ya know, the number of the beast..)
Got a new video up from this year! ua-cam.com/video/OsrxIEzBN9U/v-deo.html
