While in The Witch City, suppress the urge to buy a tour peddling in shudders and gasps. You can just stay home and turn on Fox News for that. Instead, try having an hour of laughs with Lucinda as she wickedly pokes apart the history of Salem and leaves you wondering if the town will put her to the stake before your next visit. Some say she already has quite the flaming nature. Please understand that due to Lucinda's radically limber mouth, this tour is for ADULTS ONLY and proof of age is required.
