Salem Witches and The House of 7 Gables
Today we visited the Salem Witch Museum in Salem, MA. We learned a great deal about the Puritans who pointed fingers at each other accusing family and friends of witchcraft. 20 people lost their lives in the trials and over 200 were accused.
The House of Seven Gables is said to be haunted. We didn't feel any presence of ghosts but we did learn a great deal about why Nathanial Hawthorne wrote about his cousins home. We also explored his house which they moved to the same location in 1958.
