We bought the combo pass which included the show, which I believe was one man (who did an excellent job!). The special effects were cool, although could be a little cheesy at times. My only complaint.... more

The short play was entertaining and enjoyable. And the trolley tour was really nice and funny. I would say the only downfall was not being able to get off the trolley at certain stops (house of 7 gables and winter island) to take pictures. We went at night and it was beautiful. BMW is pretty hilarious and friendly too!

I'm a Salem resident and I am on a mission to tour all the local attractions. About this one: This is a review of the play "The Gallows Hill Main Show". As far as I know, this attraction is only opened seasonally. What it is: You'll seat in a small theater with a spooky-looking stage. The stage is actually pretty cool. The show will last, I think, a dozen of minutes or so (maybe 15) and will talk about legends and lore around witches and Salem. It is not going to be "scary", but it might be a bit too dark and loud for very small children (when we were there, there was a family with a young child, 3 years or so, and they left before the end of the show). There is 1 actor on stage, some effects (like strobes and smoke) and a voice over. The premises are great, I must say tough that you might leave the theater thinking that it should have been a bit longer and a bit more imaginative. Also, maybe more informative. Or with more of a story line. PROs Unique - as far as I know there are not other attractions like this in Salem. Fun, especially if you are going with a group of friends. Spooky - being spooked is what the majority of people visiting Salem in October wants, and besides Scary Houses this is probably the only place where you would be spooked! (again, it is not really scary so don't worry 😊) CONs It is a great idea and there are nice visual effects, but it lacks a bit of imagination, of a story line and it is slightly repetitive. No pictures allowed after the show begins.
