Hi All,

Sorry to inform you of another tourist coming into your fair city shortly, but we will be respectful and frequent your local establishments. On that note, I’m looking for a spot to watch the MLB playoffs during the evening. I would prefer something a bit more “elevated” than a traditional sports bar, I.e. good beer bar with TV’s, etc. but also a place where I can hang for multiple hours without drawing stares (I promise I’ll drink, eat and tip well!)

Thanks!

Does anyone have a great cleaning company that they recommend?

I see that the garages get full by 1:00 or so during the week. Anyone know around what time they start having spots again?

Who is in charge of construction here? In what world is October the right time to start a construction project here? I'm voting in November and want to make sure I don't accidentally re-elect the genius that decided this.

Thank you so much Salem for being absolutely stunning and making dreams come true for 2 spooky fuckers from Australia ❤️

I want to let you know that tonight at 7:00 PM on Zoom, the SCC will be hosting a Q&A information session for our current grant cycle.

I’m from the area but have lived in Maine for a decade. I visited recently and saw the now named “Moons” store. Probably a wise choice but when did that happen? 🤣

Good afternoon everyone! I will be traveling from montreal to Salem this weekend and I saw that there will be a craft fair. In montreal, booths usually accept payment by tapping the credit card on a squarespace. How does it usually work in the US? Should I get cash before I leave? Thank you :)

I saw complaints on FB about the new system being difficult. I found it super easy and actually prefer this new way of doling out parking passes (once had a guest leave with mine and it was never to be seen again)

Good morning! I would like to consult a lawyer to see what my next step with my contractor should be. Any idea what that might cost me and any recommendations for a lawyer that would be helpful?

Hi, can anyone suggest a good doggy daycare in Salem? Right now I'm only seeing two.

• Healthy Hounds
• Yappy pups playhouse

Are either of these places recommendable?

Thanks!!

Anyone know a spot that makes a similar pizza? They're my favorite but they're also randomly closed all the time and they also randomly cancel orders constantly.

If you live there you can't get home now.Maybe rent a chopper and have it lower me down on a rope. hahaha Guess I'll food shop at stevs instead of Market basket

Hi Folks!!! My name is Evan and I'm a magician from Salem, MA! It's always been a dream to have a recurring October magical extravaganza, and this is the second year I get to perform my show "Misfortune." It's all about superstitions, luckiness (and unluckiness), and it has loads of twists to keep everyone on their toes!

This year, it's being hosted by the Salem Athenaeum on Essex Street, and I'm psyched because it's a gorgeous venue which can hold even more people than last year. The performances are currently scheduled for Saturdays at 5:30pm (so you can get to other evening tours/events). Ticketing info is here if anyone is interested: https://salemathenaeum.net/event/misfortune-salems-parlor-magic-experience/

Please reach out with any questions about this show or about shows/experiences in Salem!

And in the meantime, enjoy a quick little teaser:

A Magical Teaser for the Show!

I’ve gotten ads on my social media for at least two separate speak easy events taking place at cinema Salem in October that honestly look AI generated (wonka experience style), are these locally run events or some external company renting out space and capitalizing on the October mayhem?

I just get bummed when I see random tents on the Common on the weekends and seeing somebody selling like a print of Chucky on a steel plate to hang on the wall. It just screams low rent flea market.

Hi everyone,

I work for a non profit in Salem and we are in search of 2 wooden pallets, does anyone know of any being sold or given away? TIA

Good morning everyone,

Is anyone going to the Salem night faire? I want to go but don't want to go alone and my roomate will be out of town. I will even get tickets for both of us-please let me know.

For reference I am 38 Female who lives in salem. Thank you!

Saw this on the empty lot by the Boston/bridge Street intersection, next to the senior center. Does anyone know if they are finally building something there?

I am planning to go to the Salem Night Faire this year! Tickets are $10 both online ahead of time and in person, and there are no refunds, even in the case of weather cancellation. No complaints on the policy, I am just wondering if there is a benefit to purchasing tickets in advance. Does it ever sell out and you can't purchase tickets at the door?

I love the aesthetic in salem but most of the goth stores are pricy. I was wondering if the thrift stores usually had a good collection of similar clothing i can check out? And is there any suggestions?
