The Lost Library at the Salem Witch Village

About

The Lost Library is part of Salem’s Haunted Neighborhood, a cluster of immersive Halloween attractions, haunted experiences, live entertainment and shops in downtown Salem. The Lost Library includes a Black Box Theater that hosts DIY workshops, comedy and spellcasting shows throughout the year. It sits beside the Witch Village and close to the Peabody Essex Museum, the Salem Witch Trials Memorial and the historic Charter Street burial ground.

The neighborhood also includes Salem Wax: A Halloween Experience, in operation for more than 30 years, the Haunted Witch Village, Frankenstein’s Castle haunted house, and Within a Witching Hour, a live spellcasting show led by practicing witches. A Candlelit Ghostly Walking Tour explores the city after dark, and the Spirit Market offers local vendors, live music and pop-up events. The group’s gift shops carry maritime gifts, confections, books, T-shirts and Pagan and Wiccan supplies.
