Description
Presenting the Dark Side of New England -- its ghosts, vampires, legends, beasts, witches, and devils. A colorful tapestry of old Yankee tradition, a bizarre pattern stained with guilt and suffering and woven with the hard fiber of Puritan madness. New England has always had a dark side, a strange side. Monsters and ghosts lurk in its woods and old houses, and strange monuments that may be from a forgotten civilization puzzle, local investigators. All the while, the early inhabitants themselves were always superstitious, as evidenced by history's most famous witch trials. Today the Salem Witch Trials are often remembered as being a relic of a superstitious past, and Salem has transformed itself into a tourist haven and Halloween destination by capitalizing off the Salem Witch trials.
