When visiting the Witch City, your enchanting experience should begin the moment you enter the place you plan to hang your (pointy) hat. The Warlock House beckons all those who still believe in the magic of Salem with a vacation rental where it’s Halloween every day of the year. It is a bubbling cauldron for the senses, blending the whimsical fun and festivities of Halloween with the mysteries of Salem Witchcraft.
Step into the Haunting Hallway and be greeted by the warm glow of candlelight - you are immediately immersed in all things Salem. The walls of the Warlock House are decorated with Witch City memorabilia provided by some of Salem's most prestigious attractions, museums, and shops. The Haunting Hallway begins with images of Ouija history. Did you know the Ouija board was once produced in Salem? Yes! On the same street of the Warlock House at the original Parker Brother’s factory. The memorabilia continues with television’s Bewitched, featuring everyone’s favorite sorceress — Samantha Stephens.
