Haunted Road Trips: Halloween Bus Tours
One of the best ways to get your spooky fest in the fall is with a haunted bus tour. These tours can make stops in some of the most lucrative locations for haunted stories, such as Boston and Salem. While on tour, you can experience different shows and history lessons and learn how to hunt for ghosts properly, as the pros do. This five-day, four-night tour will give you an up-close and personal experience.
Boston
Before heading up the road to Boston, you have four different pickup points where you start your journey on the bus. These pickup points include the New River Valley, West Virginia, Northeast Tennessee, and Northern Virginia. Once all the stops have been made and guests collected, it’s off to the Northeast for a truly haunted good time. The first night will be spent in Secaucus, NJ, so that guests can get a good night’s rest.
The first stop in Boston is full of tales, history, and experiences that anyone wanting a spooky experience should have. Because of Boston’s long history and impact on American history, it is one of the most haunted cities and one of the best places to visit if you’re looking for that truly haunted experience. Some of the graveyards are nearly 400 years old, and they are a great place to take a step into time and get that authentic haunted experience.
Beginning at Quincy Market, there’s time for lunch, shopping, and seeing some of the local sights in the city. For dinner, you’ll enjoy a nice meal at the Chart House restaurant before tackling the Trolly for Ghosts and Gravestones Tour. This local tour gives you insight into Boston’s most famous ghosts and haunted experiences. You’ll spend two nights in Boston while you tour the city and head to Salem the next day.
Salem
When getting to Salem on the third day of the tour, you’ll arrive shortly after leaving Boston. There are local guides available to assist with a full day or tours. The Salem Witch Museum is the first stop and a great intro into the Witch hunt that made the town famous hundreds of years ago. You’ll experience a live event demonstrating how the hunt went through the city and the trials. Enjoy lunch at one of the local restaurants in the area before moving forward with a Pirate and Witch experience that will embark on lots of historical details and fun in Salem. Dinner for the evening will include the Pirate Treasure Dinner to finish out the experience of Salem.
Tour Entertainment
There is still lots of tour entertainment that continues in Salem or Boston. Leaving Salem, you’ll head to the Beacon Hill homes to see some of the historic 19th-century brick homes and learn about those who built them. Some of the best Halloween decorations in these homes will allow you to get that authentic New England Halloween experience that is unmatched nationwide. Fall-colored trees and brick sidewalks line the paths and let you step back in time.
Throughout this tour, you’ll have several experiences where you see actors play out different historical events and stories you’ve grown up hearing about. Everything from local ghost stories on the trolly to the Salem Witch Trials and Pirates that called this harbor home, you’ll get to experience and, in some cases, interact with these events. These aren’t experiences you can get anywhere else; they take the spookiness and stories you’ve grown up hearing about to another level.
