For anyone planning a trip to Salem please please PLEASE RESPECT THE LOCAL HISTORY The witch house had a fire break out a couple of years ago because some stupid tourists lit one of the decorative candles and then LEFT IT LIT with no one around! Many of the historic locations are run by volunteers doing their best to preserve the local history among an onslaught of local political pressure to commercialize everything Keep in mind that Salem is the site of a terrible injustice so please be respectful (Thank you Voltaire and Mayumi for the great videos)

I love the comparison you did between the two areas. Although not classically spooky, the Armour Stiner House in Irvington, NY, just a couple miles from Sleepy Hollow, is one of the most spectacular restored Victorian homes I've ever visited. Pink! Octagon! Egyptian Room! Its the stuff that spoopy girls dream of.

My husband and I couldn't wait to visit Salem on our way to Maine two weeks ago. We had been there before in August. Oh my gosh, the difference is horrific! This trip we stayed only long enough to take a short walk away from the mass of humanity, and toured the house of the seven gables. We found there what we were looking for. It is beautiful, quiet, historic and spooky. Then we drove away as fast as we could. As you said, Salem in October is way too many people. August gave us an entirely different, and so much better, experience. That being said, the Sleepy Hollow area is not only breathtaking in the fall, but also as frightening as your imagination will permit. Thank you for this video! I wish I would have seen it sooner. Then, I would have been far more prepared for Salem in October.

Sleepy Hollow is definitely on my bucket list. I went to Salem 10 years ago in early October with my sister and a friend and I would love to go back! It was great! The Coach house inn was quaint. So many great little restaurants. But best of all was the attractions and shops! So many museums, spooky tours and haunted houses. There's something for everyone and shops galore! There where a lot of people but not so crowded in early October.

I agree what you said @TheLairofVoltaire ! Paraphrasing here but what I love about places like Salem and Sleepy Hollow, is that they would just be like any other regular town unless the local government consciously decided to embrace its macabre history and make it a spooky destination.

I've been to Salem 3 times, twice for Halloween. I have to say, that for Halloween, Salem can't be beat! It is so much fun! Many people hate the crowds, and while I'm not usually a fan of crowds either, I think all the people dressed up and having fun on Halloween night creates a really great, jubilant vibe! And I find that during the day its not too crowded. It's on Halloween night that getting into a shop or restaurant can be difficult. We just walked around in our costumes and got some food from the vendors on the Salem Common(you will wait in line for sure). There are great restaurants; my favorites are Flying Saucer Pizza, Sea Level Oyster Bar(their seafood pie is amazing, and good cocktails too!),Ugly Mug Diner, A&J King Artisan Bakers, Front Street Coffee, Whimsey's Sweet Life, and Nathaniel's and The Tavern at the Hawthorne Hotel(also really good fall/Halloween cocktails). And there are many more that I would have liked to try. I feel like after experiencing Salem, Sleepy Hollow might feel like a let down. I guess if I realize it would be a more low-key experience I'm sure I'd enjoy it.

I definitely enjoyed this vid. I've been to Salem multiple times. The busters are out all year long and you still get the spooky vibes in the off season. Difference is longer crowds, longer lines, extra attractions like shop and food vendors and decorations on houses. There is a castle in Gloucester MA (Hammond Castle). Its definitely a cool little trip from Salem only 30 to 45 min. from there. Salem can be over stimulating or busy if its your first time best thing is to research and watch vids of where you want to go and why? If I gave 3 tips it would be: take trolley it'll give you a lay out of Salem and its one of the best tours, plan trio half to full year in advance and do a hotel and flight combo its cheaper that way, lastly there are so many good places to eat and drink and there are few bathrooms so have a plan. There are so many little charming places to stay and shop some are even themed. Sometimes there are events in Salem through year like parades, music events, fireworks, park events like food and drink festivals, even special events during holidays and Halloween it awesome. parking can get expensive there aren't many places to park so train, uber and ferry are the easiest ways to get into salem. hope this info helps. This is one of the best Salem vids I've seen but now I gotta visit sleepy hallow. I first got into goth music by your band now you are doing these vids ill definitely check out more.

I was in Boston to see the Hu and took a little day trip to Salem while I was there. I was lucky regarding the timing. For one thing, it was in September, just a little while before it got filled with tourists. For another, it was 2019, just before the lockdown. My main focus was the House of the Seven Gables where Nathanial Hawthorne lived. (I still need to finish the book)

This travel vlog was so very immersive and I absolutely had such a wonderful time, today! This was truly an extraordinary precedent to prepare for the Spooky Festivities. Just as you said, Sleepy Hollow is very atmospheric and has its own idiosyncratic culture and the story is one of my most favorite Gothic tales of all time and I love the Tim Burton film adaptation from 1999 as well! I would love to visit beautiful Sleepy Hollow one of these days and as a Metalhead Goth who is a massive fan of Iron Maiden, the Eddie masks from the "Die With Your Boots On" shop absolutely made my day, as well.

When you go to Salem ..... Count Orlok's is THE BEST horror fan museum. The Ouija museum is also great! September is my favorite month to visit Salem because Halloween has technically already started there, but still far less crowds. Also .... I use to frequent club Darq for many many years. I use to even go to the promoters personal Halloween party at his house, which I think is now on VRBO.

Really excellent video. Very helpful. I had no idea Salem gets that packed in October. Although I'm sure it's probably fun at night 🌙 🦇

If I ever get to spend some time in the U.S., both cities are definitely on my list of places to visit.

I love in Massachusetts, so I visit Salem during the summer, MUCH fewer tourists ! Lol 😅 I appreciate that you are often using trains & the like. I know it would be impossible to afford a car in NYC, BUT, I DO wish more people used trains, busses, etc. Plus, the traffic & parking during the height of tourism is a nightmare !

The Salem bit made me think, have you ever done any work with the Satanic Temple?

Really? I’d never heard that. Staten Island has some beautiful cemeteries. Also the Conference House is a good haunted spot to visit 👻🎃
