- Take a tour of the house that formally belonged to Judge Jonathan Corwin. This house is the only structure still standing with direct ties to the Salem witch trials of 1692. This was filmed in Salem, Massachusetts in January, 2017. This video was filmed with permission from staff, specifically for educational, commentary, and historical purposes. It is protected under the 1976 "Fair use" act section 107.

No music, no voice, Perfect visit! Thanks
BabyBlack Goth nothing worse when you think your going on a tour & it’s someone just speaking about it in their bedroom just showing pics! Ugh!!
The silence is haunting and gives a reflection of the darkness of that year of 1692. Beautiful home, dark history. Cannot wait to visit Salem next Autumn.
Hahahahaha this did not age well
I live in Midcoast Maine just a 4 hour trip from Salem & have ALWAYS wanted to visit during Autumn. I need to make the trip one of these years 🍂♥️
"The silence is haunting" until you hear evps in this of some of the voices from the 1600's. All with the British accent.
Agreed on all points.
So how was your visit?
Thank you ! Well done, no talking, no super jerky camera ( we all have to walk of course). A nicely done tour of the house! You focused in on the descriptions gave me a sec to hit the pause button and actually read them ! You panned around slowly so I could see the rooms and gave a pause here and there to take it all in. Thanks nicely done !
Thank you.
There was a comment on another video I watched complaining about they couldn't read the material fast enough. I was like, uhm... pause it. 🤷♀️ Lol!

@@travelingtom923I agree 5 years later
My very great grandmother Francis Elizabeth Hutchins was arrested for being a witch during the witch trials she spent I think 130 days in jail and she was finally bailed out at the end of the trials
Back in the 1600’s you couldn’t bail people out dumbass
wow
@@happyhuskylovescookies2569 u are right but that's a but she's not a dumbass
X Sasha_ lovely X at the end of the trials people were exonerated, including tituba who was the first person accused and the first to confess to the crimes.
Thank God she was saved.
so awesome to be able to take tours when you cant afford to travel lol :)
Yes it is! I have never been overseas but thanks to the many You tube videos, I have a pretty good idea of what some of these countries are like.
Having never heard of this house: commentary would have improved this showing, immensely!
..or are too ill to travel.
Many thanks.
@@finnsmom8470 it was a house that belonged to one of the influential townspeople involved with the witch trials.
Isn't it 😊
I’ve never been in, but I’ve seen the outside many times. I do live in Salem. It’s a great place to spend Halloween.
Do you practice witchcraft
I totally agree
The Corwin House was the best museum experience I had in Salem. So much information. So much detail. This one was just so enriching. Definitely worth doing.
Yes I would agree and it doesn't cost very much either!
I took pictures at all the museums that allowed it. This was the only one that really gave me the creeps, and I even picked up some obviously paranormal figures in my pictures. Only at this house though, nowhere else in Salem.
The Salem Witch House is a must when visiting Salem. One of my favorite trips. I recall the woman behind the register was kind and knowledgeable.
Omg thank you so much for this video!!! You don’t know how grateful I am!
You're welcome.
Very awesome video, loved how you took your time unlike others where they do nothing but talk and rush
Splendid job of vlogging with filming the documents slowly enough for us to read. Outstanding vlog that will keep us engaged as you share your historical adventures. Very good! Thank you!
At first I thought “Why doesn’t he tell us stuff as you’re moving around the house?” It didn’t take long to appreciate that approach to your video skills, which are really well done. I love history, particularly Colonial. The only small thing I would change is when you focus on printed descriptions and explanations, go a little slower to give us a little more time to read it.....and then go back to the things spoken about. You’ve got a exceptional camera but, you’ve clearly mastered the skills to make this video exceptional. I loved it! Thanks for sharing a part of our history.
EXCELLENT 👍 BRILLIANTLY DONE!!!! NO FUSS, LOUD VIDEO RECORDERS, NO TALKING AND WE'RE ABLE TO SEE THE ACTUAL INSIDE OF MY HOUSE ETC.... THANK YOU❤️
So they killed people accused of being witches when in reality they were all guilty of performing witchcraft. The irony!
Well if was more like... You are not being a proper lady so you must be a witch.
All the witches including men owned many assets that were confiscated. Makes one wonder doesn't it?

what?
@@alexiallancaleo6162 What do you mean what?
This was great :) Just straight up perfection; Thanks
What an absolutely GORGEOUS looking house! Thanks for posting this Mr. Tom - I found it (Somehow) cozy and comforting! I'm not a goth guy or a depressed, morbid teen who's lonely and obsessed with either death or the occult - I'm a Deadhead who loves classic rock and other instrumentally-based music....I've saved this and will come back to it the future though. Again, this was beautiful.
Luv this house. Everything on display is amazing.
Wow this was one of the greatest videos ever. A really excellent job. Thank you so much.
Blessings from Ireland 🇮🇪
Fun fact, i am a descendant if John Corwin; we have a family ledger with his name in it dRing back in 1638. My uncles name is also John Corwin.
Maybe you should give tours one day. That would be a nice treat!
He’s my cousin 10x removed 😂 my great grandmothers maiden name is Corwin my grandfather took it for some reason
This house is so eerie in person. While inside I felt SO nauseous and sick. Symptoms went away maybe 30 minutes later when we left the house. Weirdest feeling ever
Spooky 👻
An excellent presentation. Thank you.
Thank you.
I want one of those Witch bottles! Very intriguing design! Great tour, thank you.⭐🌙✨
Reading all of those things were pretty interesting! Thank you!
Thanks for posting this....so good to see the inside of my 1st cousin 8 times removed. Jonathan's father and my 8 times grandfather were brothers..
You are welcome.
Laurie ur full of shit.
Have you been on ancestry 😂 I always giggle when it says x times removed😂❤️❤️
i found i had family there killed during the witch trials.. one hanged, one burned , and 2 pressed to death
He’s my cousin 10x removed! Hahaha I can’t believe I found another person in the comments ❤️
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR SHARING!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!!
Thank you.
Well Done! It's as if I'd visited and taken the tour myself.
Fascinating stuff... it gives you a lot of insight of what life was like in 1692.
Yes amazing that house survived.
I’ve been when I was little this is what got me into historic stuff
Great job on the video. Thx
Great video Tom!
Thank you.
A beautiful home , thank you for sharing
You are welcome.
thanks for the look see. I did visit the house more than 50 years ago. It's nice to see a place that isn't roped off like most other period homes.
This was awesome. Thank you. I liked it 👍
You are welcome.
Omg thank you so much for this! I am writing a ghost story about 2 teenagers who find this building one say and experience the haunting of the ghosts of the witches. This really helped me to describe the setting of the house so thank you so so so much!! :D
You are welcome.
Would love to know how your book turned out
Hello I love anything 💝 about historical history it's so educating very and also how was did your book 📖 tured out I'm late 🤦but still wonts to no if you don't mined 🙂
How is your book coming along? Have you finished it and where can I buy to read it?😊
Your channel is awesome! I plan on visiting Salem at some point but your vlogs, allow me to take a peek 👀! Keep up the good work 👍🏻
Thank you.
Very nice Video Tom, well done..
Thank you.
Great video, really interesting love that type of architecture also
Thank You
Chilling, haunting, yet very interesting!
The exterior of the house does give a British vibe. It certainly stands out... in a good way if you ask me.
Thanks for uploading!
it was built by English colonialists in an English colony so yeah I guess ur right
One of the best tours. House of 7 gables worth it too. My suggestions is to take your time and don't forget trolley and ferry to boston their worth it
This is really good 👏🏼
6:35 This beautiful antique is a bible box from 1699. No true Christian family would be caught without a proper bible in their home, which were were gigantic and expensive. Thus, they protected their treasured possession inside a very ornate bible box that included a small inside shelf for an ink well, quills and plenty of space for the good book. The box could also double as a preaching podium. The slant is so that the book could be placed there and read to the family or congregation.
We are privileged to own one from 1666, the year of the Great Fire of London. Like ours, the bible box displayed at the Salem Witch House was made in Englad from oak wood, giving it its dark color. American bible boxes were often made of pine wood and are lighter in color. Thank you for the great video! My wife and I truly enjoyed our visit.
very cool video would love to visit Salem and see it
Im so glad they tour places it is Great !!!
Very cool. I am probably never going to see this glad to see someone recorded it .
Excellent video
Thank you.
I WANT TO LIVE IN THAT HOUSE
Very thorough walk-through video presentation, thanks much. I'm gonna put this place on my bucket list.
Wow! It's like going back in time like
I am intrigued by the sign explaining the shoe. We have an old house from the early 1800’s and we were doing some work in the crawl space under the house. I found an old shoe buried in the corner. It was obviously from the 1800’s due to the style of the shoe. There was only one shoe. I thought it was garbage and junk so I threw it away. My son told his teacher about the shoe and the teacher said what the sign in this tour said. Then I was upset because I threw away my good luck protection shoe. But at the time I had no idea what it was for.
Thank you so much for this video. I'd love to travel but until my finances can take the hit, I make do with TH-cam videos. It was great to be able to hit the pause button and read the texts. Had no idea human blood, fat, tissue, and bone was used medicinally! The Puritans were so strict and superstitious, one would have lived in an almost constant state of anxiety for fear of being accused of witchcraft--as so many poor innocents were.
Neat video. Thank you for sharing.
Great tour. Wish you would’ve stayed longer on the description of what each thing is so I could read the whole thing.
Press pause : )
I was there yesterday an they told us no video or flash but it's an amazing place to visit so much history
327 years ago, it was a very busy house
Hi. Those truly were horrific and tragic times. So many innocents lost to things misunderstood by so many others. Thank you so much, for your excellent showing of the Witch Trials of the 1600s. And wow, that house is amazing
SO COOL THAT I GOT SEE INSIDE.
every oct 31st i go to salem to go tick or treating and i always walk past this house and wanting to inside 😭😭
I love this beautiful house
Fascinating museum. Thanks so much for posting a comprehensive tour. I've visited there twice, but it was closed both times. So frustrating. Looking at the utterly horrifying medical practices described in this museum makes me grateful to be alive in our current time period, lol. SNAIL WATER? DRINKING BLOOD? DUNG WATER? Can't believe people thought these practices would be helpful!
Yes indeed. What is more amazing is there is still many people in third world countries, still believing that stuff works.
If those walls could speak!
Woah how do they preserve a house this old ? Incredible
I can't wait to visit salem.
This is a quality product of viewing display bud 👌
Love this place
I would love to read what is on all the paperwork that we all looked at!!
So unreal that they thought so many were witches, and yet they had numerous ways (spells) to ward off witches. Sad that so many were murdered because of their ignorance. Have been to Salem, it is awesome. Thank you for this tour, it was closed when I was there on Halloween years ago. Cannot believe that they just have those flimsy ropes up to keep people off the furniture, and have some stuff out where anyone could touch it. Hopefully it is all copies.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video.. Thank you very much
TY so much..really enjoyed the tour and learned a lot
This was a great video thanks for taking time to allow us to read the placates very interesting. 🙏
So weird to be immersed in the house and feel of the time, then looking out a window and seeing a car go by LOL
iv been wanting to go visit that place for Halloween I will one day that's fucking wicked
thanks for the tour 😜
This is so incredibly awesome!!!!!!! Love it thank you 💋♥️
You are welcome.
Yes this is cool to see
Very educational... Thank you
Wish I could come do some spirit photos to see who still resides there ..
Cool homes
The houses look better insulated than the ones built today.
They are
Imagine living at a time when owning and living in that house meant you were one of the wealthy elites. The standard of living rose pretty quickly in 300 years.
I wonder what went in Johnathan Corwin's head after his death when he met those people and knew then he'd sent all those innocent people torture and death ( and took their land.) I do not believe in heaven and hell but spiritworld I do believe and Judge Jonathan's " hell" in afterlife must have been the knowledge that people will know in future what a bastard and murdere he had been. Also interested 2.45 what are those scissors are for maybe wig curles? What about those huge silvery plates? Did he stuff his face with that much of food every meal?
maruna junttila The judges who made the decisions to imprison or murder those accused slept well at night. They believed whole heartedly in fire and brimstone and that those they sentenced were guilty and “in cahoots with the devil”
Kitana, it still goes on today. Just a different form.
@@sonofhibbs4425 amen all day long!
I want to see this in real life so cool!!!*
I'm looking for the black flame candle...
Never saw one.
Nice
Regarding the sign on the wall about blood, wonder if the Puritans were also vampires.
Excellent vid brother😎👌
Wow
Is that shiplap?
I’m taking my fiancé to Salem this weekend for his birthday and I’m kinda worried if I witch should go to Salem 🤣
It's a neat place. I think you would like it. Good restaurants too.
So he's the person who killed the "witches"
No he was one of the gudges
So all the stuff that's in the house...is it all the original stuff from the 1600's or is it all replicas? Like the furniture?
Was anyone else completely weirded out when he looked out the window about 10 and 1/2 minutes in? I was completely engrossed in the silence of 1692 and then boom the modern loud world showed up. Weird to think of this place being on a main drag like that. I pictured woods lol
I’ve been here 20 years ago, and what a beautiful city, what an epic place, plus if you look at the shadow of the candle it looks like a witch, they did that on purpose 🤣
the windows are so small!
Ja sam iz Srbije i ovde u našem folkloru ima veštica,vila,.....vampira.....pozdrav
Were you touring alone or were other people inside the house, as well? I am asking because I heard voices during your filming.
I was alone but there was a few other people inside.
This is my type of house! Awesome!
jdrose1000 so your a witch?
Do you think that anybody out there have been to see The House of the Seven Gables it's in Salem and it's the which house I heard heard of it most of my life when starting when I was a child
Never heard of that one.
*Was someone whispering or was that evp's I was hearing? Awesome vid!! Thank you for sharing!*
Come on, you have to whisper in places like this.
Definitely, around 3 minutes in.
this is really cool!
pov: your playing a very realistic game
