We are all descended from someone. In fact, we are descended from thousands of people! The Salem Witch Trials took place over three centuries ago and today there are millions of people who can trace their lineage back to those involved; accused, executed, exonerated, and judges alike. Join Sarah and Jeffrey as they talk about some of the more famous descendants, as well as numbers, family trees, what a first cousin even is!

We may not be in Salem's Great Age of Sail anymore, but that doesn't mean you can't go out and enjoy the harbor! And what better way to see Salem's coastline than on board a hand-made, locally owned and operated floating Tiki bar? Join Jeffrey and Sarah as they chat with Captain Scott and "Drink Mate" Karen about bringing their vision to life, doing what they love, and of course, Tiki.

Book reports are due! Did Sarah and Jeffrey do their homework? Absolutely. Join us as Sarah covers Hawthorne's first major novel The Scarlet Letter and Jeffrey covers The House of the Seven Gables. Let's talk about Hester Prynn, adultery, and puritanical laws; how people are burdened by the past and how the sins of the father are the problems we must deal with in the present. Both of these books, written over a century and a half ago, still have resounding themes even today.

The Scarlet Letter, Nathanial Hawthorne 1850

The House of the Seven Gables, Nathanial Hawthorne 1851

Sometimes called Salem's favorite son, Nathaniel Hawthorne remains one of Witch City's most famous residents. He was a novelist, a poet, and a short story writer. You might be familiar with The Scarlet Letter, but this week we take a look at the author behind the words. Join your favorite Salem tour guides, Jeffrey and Sarah, as they discuss everything from his birthday, to his mustache. Venture back to nineteenth-century Salem with us and discover how Hawthorne's life, lineage, and experiences influenced his most prolific writings.

Perhaps one day we'll summon Caroline Emmerton from the grave... But until then, we got you the next best thing: David Moffat, Visitor Services Specialist at The House of the Seven Gables. David is a wealth of information about the site, the buildings, the history, and everything that goes with it. Join us for a fantastic history lesson inside one of the oldest buildings we've ever recorded in. We learned about everything from dendrochronology (using tree rings to date wood) to the secrets of the secret staircase.

There are very few individual people who have had as much of an impact on Salem as Caroline Emmerton. Philanthropist is the best word to describe her, but she did so much for Salem that it also falls short. Join Jeffrey and Sarah, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they weave through Caroline's life and talk about how she took the Turner-Ingersoll Mansion (aka House of Seven Gables), preserved its history, expanded its reach, and used the income generated to help Salem's immigrant communities.

Sarah Osbourne. Roger Toothaker. Mercy Good. Ann Foster. Lydia Dustin. Casualties of the Salem Witch Trials are traditionally taught as 19 hanged and 1 tortured to death. However, there were an additional 5 people who died in jail. Join Sarah and Jeffrey, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they unravel the stories of these individuals. A woman sitting on a land dispute, a man practicing folk magic, an infant child, a confessed witch, and a woman found innocent. Together they form a striking picture of what was happening in New England in 1692.
