Where the Haunted Footsteps Ghost Tour Meets
meet at
The operator's office
1805 Custom House Building, Salem, MA
The walk starts at the operator's office, 1805 Custom House Building. The listing gives the exact spot and what the guide will be holding; arrive a few minutes early in October, when several tours share the same corners.
From the commuter rail station it is a short walk. If driving, use a downtown garage and leave the car; the closest streets close on peak weekends. The listing says nothing about restrooms, so use the ones at the station or a cafe before the start.
