Took a tour in Salem once. The guide happened to be the daughter of our librarian and with her was another guide who ahd come originally from Ireland. Her name was Maura. Anyway we went to a bunch of places mostly related to Salem Witchcraft Trials and then to one house that had been the telephone company and then to a house that was some sort of a survey firm If you know Salem center it is the big brick house nxt to Dunkin "Donuts. Anyway Maura would not go on the land for the house. She walked around the corner and stood on the sidewalk. The librarian's daughter told me later that when they were rehersing for the speel of the tour they were sitting on the wall of the driveway of the house. Maura was suddenly propelled off the wall and onto the ground. They thought she was kidding or somethign but she was white and crying . She said the entity did not want her there. She did not tell this to the tour only me. Maura felt that she was not wanted and stayed away from the house. I look at that house every time I go by I ahve seen photos in the shape of a black shadow woman. It scares me.
I had done lots of resarch on Salem for a couple of term papers when in HS and college. I always wanted to know where gallows hill was but no one would tell me. Once I finally got a police man to give me directons and we went there (DH and I). It is now a park with lots of swings etc. It is terraced and at the top of the hill are tons of houses. So picture at the bottom of the hill is a park and then a kind of wooded path and then the houses at the top which are NOT accessble from the park but from a street on the other side. We decided to walk the hill and I felt an eerie feeling. They are not sure it is the actual hill but walking to the path toward the top I imagined what it must be like to have to travel it to my death. Anyway, I am on the path and suddenly a tinly little bunny comes out of the woods and stops and looks me straight in the eye and just stares at me. It was weird b/c he was so small and he was not afraid of us. He just kind of stared us down and then turned in his own time and hopped away (and not in a hurry). I know that the rabbits one of the animals involved in the Pagan religion and Wicca. I found it kind of strange. The strange part was that really we were smack dab in the middle of a city and suddenly a baby bunny shows up and stares me down? While the Salem Witchcraft Trials were really not related to witchcraft I found it ironic that this animal was there between houses, basketball court and swing sets. If you go to Salem you can go to Gallows Hill Park but all of the people in the know who I talked to said not to go at night. They said it was a bad place. No one would tell me why but I assume it is bad in the sense of gangs hanging out there but who knows.
