Our First Time RV Camping at WALMART - Scary Door Knocks (Salem MA RV Life)

Oh my god, oh my god. Who's knocking? Oh my god. Oh my god. Oh my god. We're not supposed to be here. Oh my god Oh, geez, please Hello Dude, why are you knocking on the bed? Dave? Yeah, oh my lord watch me sway darkness falls and we all pray Hoping for the light of day Down to the river What's up you guys so Dave and I we're from Massachusetts, but we've never been to Salem, Mass So we figured since we're here, we're going to dive a little bit more into the hidden gem local favorite spots here And including some local hidden gem favorite restaurants not to mention we're going to dive a bit more into the History and the untold truths of Salem and the witch trials you may not be aware of Now there's only one local rv park and well, that's full So it looks like tonight we're heading to the local walmart, which we hope will have us Wow, this place is really cool. I know right i'm glad we saw it. Salem willows park Yeah, we headed into downtown salem, but right here on the harbor super popular And it's literally like it's seriously like Right down the street from the rv park. So you got this beautiful beautiful Kind of state little city park here. I guess you would say it's so awesome There's like an amazing arcade. Maybe later we can kind of play some of the arcade over here Oh, I think you're right retro, but I can't take my eyes off these willows these trees like these weeping Willows and it's right on the harbor. Oh and check this out right over here Looks like there's a place you can kind of grab some looks like lunch Right there on the harbor a couple tables set up with umbrellas So before we get started, we thought we'd stop off for some great brunch here at red sandwich shop, which is uh, Highly recommended by locals to us and it's in a historic building called it used to be the old london coffeehouse 1698 building You excited babe? I am very excited. I'm i'm actually starving. So it makes a lot of sense to kick this off It's pretty warm outside, but I already placed an order for us Oh, so I think we're going to share it's supposedly they have really good breakfast tacos So I already placed an order. I think we'll split it because there's also another spot I think we should try out after this But this place is supposed to be known for some really sort of that tasty homemade vibe in here. So i'm excited. I'm excited, too Voila voila told you looks really really good. I mean take a look at that. Oh, man Come on, of course I had to ask for the hot sauce Looks like they have their nice sort of potato Which is really warm I feel the problem I feel with this is we're gonna be full And we got a lot of walking to do but I'm glad we're sharing me too and i'm starving It's like fully loaded like seriously i'm gonna actually just throw a potato in there just to give it a good old hearty wholesome first bite All right, the verdict is What's the verdict The verdict is oh, it's really good awesome Oh, that's great I think it is definitely getting a turn it up world Take care of that low blood sugar Take care So it was really cool to learn some of the famous footprints that have kind of come to this place here And one being adam sandler and noah schnapp, I guess they were Making a movie over here. It was called like hubby. Halloween. Now, who is no Yeah, noah snap is from stranger things So he's like the younger brother or that kind of gets a tingly thing from the back of his neck where he senses things going on I'm so stuffed So it looks like there's something like the freedom trail here in salem as well Just kind of walk the line and looks like wait a second Tony's on it right now And we don't have any guide on where this is taking us but looks like there's a trail here Wait, it's going this way. Don't test my judgment. Don't test my skills. There we go You got the skills Now they have some great organized tours in salem that you can oh, oh, oh wow the trolley's coming down. Yeah All right. Thanks, babe. Stay alive Yeah, they have some great organized tours here But with the ones we called didn't want us filming so we decided to try this self-guided tour like check out this trolley There it goes. I'm glad you uh, kept me from getting hit by that thing always. Thanks, babe Haunted house. She looks pretty happy This way she looks ready to invite you into her house. Yeah, it looks like something special like a welcoming spot here It's a really nice little walking area here. Oh, yeah a little pedestrian Except for the trolley the trolleys come down. So watch out for the trolley And they're kind of all along All on the path here look up there. You see her. Yeah Huh lady of salem, yeah, and they're everywhere Gar girl, I like that. That's good All right a little blue in the face lady of salem sponsor baits elementary school the baits motel He just went there so right here on washington in front of salem cycle is the courthouse Yeah, the old uh courthouse actually it's not here anymore But it actually was right apparently around the middle of the street the old salem courthouse where they actually tried and convicted um You know all the people as part of all the victims as part of the salem witch trials course 19 were hung and then one refused to make a plea effectively guiles Corey and he was actually pressed to death which is basically just putting boulders on top of him Hey, so we're standing right now in front of turner seafood, which is a very popular restaurant here in salem Actually one of the most popular seafood spots here in salem, and it's also Lyceum hall. So bridget bisham She was a former landowner here in lyceum hall and one of the interesting factors about bridget bisham Is she was one of the victims of the witch trials? Another great way to beat the heat here or actually to beat the cold you can get pretty cold here It's just a step inside one of the cool Delicious restaurants and we stepped into another one called the juicery for a smoothie a little juicy time So that's another great thing about salem is there's so many dynamite restaurants here on top of the history We've actually experienced quite a few and there's some that we wish we had time to try So if you have time what you're going to be doing a lot of walking which we recommend because that is a great way To not miss something important is to try some of these restaurants because they're dynamite Yes, and actually that brings us to a question for you If you've been to salem and you've had a most memorable experience Let us know what that experience was in the comments below. We might just feature that comment in a future video. Absolutely And babe, we should actually get going. We have a lot to see That's true we do have a lot of exciting things coming up and that's why we have to have the smoothies with protein To get us through it. Let's rock So dave fun fact. Oh, yeah. What's that? Did you know? Salem was the birthplace of the national guard in 1636 I did not know that well it is That's a very cool fact actually. Wow Well in 1883, did you know that actually parker brothers the game company? Was founded in salem actually the headquarters were here for years and of course they they developed monopoly clue Right a lot of great board games. Wow I did not know that but it sounds like we're going to need to pick up a monopoly board for desert snow That's not a bad idea Hey everyone say hello to sam samantha stevens, you know elizabeth montgomery so Why is this here in salem? Well? In 1970 the salem set in california for we witched burned down. So they did the salem sagas here In salem and this iconic statue of sam stevens Is one of the most popular photo spots here In salem, wait, wait, she's telling me something Oh, yes. Okay. I got it. It's right there All right be gone Not quite the anchor Quite the anchor. It's funny. One thing about salem. Most people don't really think about is it has an incredible marine history as well But I think that's pretty cool Oh, this is a great little park It's a really nice area though But there are some histories and some mysteries that we have to uncover while we're here Can you believe that follower bought this bell? Like 46 bucks. Wow, 46 dollars He's like a lot of money, right Wow I don't think i've ever seen a blue bark. Is that blue bark? Is this only in salem salem stuff? That is a salem painted blue bark Watch it look for the blue bark here in salem. Now. This is a gorgeous little walkway here More blue bark. It's everywhere. There's blue bark everywhere So folks know the meaning of the blue bark and why it's If people know the meaning of the blue bark let us know in the comments below, please Oh, here we go. Oh, there's an answer here. Wait, you can find out So I guess we now know why the trees are blue. So the artist it was constantine denopolis. He basically responded to the global deforestation and The climate crisis and the reason he painted the trees blue Was because there are no real blue trees in nature So this is kind of his response, you know to that and how he felt And this house behind us is uh, pretty crazy, right? Right a lot of rumors around this one It's the samuel pickman house and the rumor is that back sometime in the 1700s a family moved in there and the the dad was uh, Was kind of crazy. Apparently he tied his daughter Right up on the second floor to the down to the floor or something And like before that kind of kicked in he was seeing like demonic spirits and things that nature and so You know, even though the family has been forgotten the scary stories of the family still remain And it happened to be right up in that second window. There are a lot of folks Visitors even today have said they still see silhouette for a little bit. That's kind of creepy We're up there there's a second floor there we go second floor right there so now You can enter the house But guess what? You may not be able to leave unless you buy something. This is a gift shop now. Ah, it's a gift shop Exit through the gift shop Visit the gift shop see what they got Yeah, quite a few places yes Wow Get some iron-on patches if you like Let's see if we can find some stickers here Check out these little mugs here Oh bummer you picked the good stuff My mom had something like this My dad Really? Yeah, that's super neat It doesn't feel spooky being inside of the pikmin house, I mean definitely the ceiling heights are not made for There's actually more room in desert snow Can you believe it right I can actually top right there. It's actually really cool. I love I love the beams. Yeah, it's really cool So it's still standing so that shows sound quality, but boy. Oh boy feels a little creepy We're heading off next to the charter street cemetery Is there a little girl? I thought I saw somebody pop out around those bushes I think there was someone that popped it around those bushes I got a map for us for the cemetery. Oh awesome Let the spooky begin we actually have a map now of the cemetery that we can actually use to find the key pieces to the cemetery not to mention the back of this actually Kind of lets us know what those symbols are about And it's a great way and using this map is a great way to kind of figure out things and you know Maybe the order you might want to check them out We're actually at the charter street cemetery and actually none of the victims of the witch trials were buried here um There is a memorial right next door We're going to check that out in a little bit, but uh, there actually is one of the judges and many of their folks Are actually buried here During the salem witch trials the judges would actually allow spectral evidence, which is basically Evidence supposed evidence that the girls that were afflicted supposedly By by the witches and things like that Would actually give that testimony and that was assumed to be true even though there's absolutely no way no evidence No way to really prove that at all. Just the word of the girls that were affected and that led to a lot of you know, I mean apparently the conviction rate I think was like 100% as well, so it's just it's so Yeah, it's just terrible You can actually tell the age of the gravestones really by the type of motifs that they have on them You can see that's one of the older ones right there With the skull motif and then over here. There's actually a face That you'll see which so it's a little bit more recent Than the last one information You may want to know that you may not have known is that john hawthorne and nathaniel hawthorne related And john hawthorne who we know is the judge That allowed spectral evidence which caused so many deaths and nathaniel hawthorne who's the writer of the scarlet letter Well, if you notice their names he put w in front of thorne hawthorne because he didn't want to be associated with John for all the terrible acts that were caused due to his judging You know just to put some color in terms of how evil judge hawthorne was he would basically Bully men and women into saying things that he could use to incriminate them to put them to death and that's crazy I know it is crazy. I mean he also Allowed spectral evidence which of course is you can't disprove it's ridiculous And we heard the conviction rate was a hundred percent. Yeah, which is just just horrible Oh, yeah, like if somewhere back back then to save their own butt If they can say this person over here is a witch and this is why There would be no proof allowed that person potentially be put to death because of the spectral evidence So it's really really a nasty, uh, and and in my opinion really evil man So interestingly enough, there is a house. I keep saying this spooky creepy house It's kind of right up here in the graveyard and apparently it's called. Dr. Grimshaw's house and it's the house or home of Nathaniel hawthorne's wife Right. It's so funny. It's right and it's right against the tombstone. Yeah, you can get a nice window of view. It looks like Out of the tombstone price for that view, right? But I got I think those windows on the bottom floor are painted Oh, those those are painted Are they painted? No, they're windows. Are those windows? Premium for the window view Oh, stop it. I think i'm a witch. It's a view of the future So in downtown salem right in the center of town actually right by the cemetery we were just in they have a memorial To the victims of the witch trials all all 20 Of the victims and it is amazing just looking and kind of look right down here And just seeing it actually each one. They do have someone put flowers down. You can see rebecca nurse hanged july 19 1692 and you kind of go to each one and it's And there's a sarah wilds july 19 1692 and what's incredible just how Many happened in such a short time Right. This is only over the course of like a year or two So interestingly enough what kicked off all of this? uh madness To these poor folks being killed was reverend parish's daughter betty and his niece abigail who? just randomly at some point started having these fits and convulsions and saying things that the doctors or the priests couldn't Put into play what they did say was that it happened to be The work of the devil and by that It went from there and they tried to figure out ways in terms of how they can get out Who was putting this curse on them? And so what they did was they? uh tried different ways of doing so until three names Came into play to kind of kick off this and it seemed like the the three, uh women that were Named were all poor Okay, so john proctor was a landowner in mass and He ended up being hung because of the fact that he stood up for his wife So when they accused his wife, which I believe his niece was the one that accused his wife. Wow And it's just unbelievable and then he stood up for her saying she's not And because of his belief in truth, right? Uh, they turned on him. Hence. He was also part of the 20th in this great side So I guess one other thing we should point out is that he was the last of that day So august 19th 1962 was when he went His term to be hung and it's really sad because he had to watch others life being drained from their body before he went up so it's And apparently as we understand it was they had what was called a short hang not the long hang not that it's necessarily Better, but apparently Yeah, when the longer the longer ones you would break your neck and die more instantly where these apparently it was more of a You would get choked to death and it would be just a horrible much slower Yeah, well, I love that folks are kind of memorializing as well by putting And maintaining your good name They actually have engraved right here at the front Of the memorial just some really heart-wrenching quotes of the accused during the witch trials you can see right here Oh lord help me. They're actually these are actual quotes the transcripts of the trials and i'm wholly innocent of such wickedness And of course you can see here. I plead not guilty. It just kind of goes on So really quick there's actually one More interesting name. I think we should point out which is a very unique story to this one here. I'll meet you over there Huh that was fast So anyway, george burroughs is the name of a very has a very unique story behind george burroughs. He was the only pastor in american history that was accused of witchcraft And the story goes that george burroughs basically borrowed money because when his wife died he didn't have enough money to pay for a funeral So he borrowed it from the putnams and over time he couldn't pay it back. So he left salem and moved to maine and 10 years goes by and he gets the knock from these gentlemen that are Accusing him of witchcraft the putnams accused him of witchcraft, which then he would be pulled out of maine Drawn back to salem To be tried which we all know how all that ends when you're tried for witchcraft with 100 Accusery exactly conviction Wow august 19th 1962 says for reverend burroughs a man of god a man of truth Oh looks like they're painted Okay, first and foremost after we sit here for five minutes. I think we need to go get some refresher Oh, it's getting hot arched But I have to tell you this is a very very interesting spot that we decided to Park our butts. So that beautiful brick building called the town hall with the green doors in front of us If it looks familiar, it's because it was the dance hall scene in hocus pocus. Oh, wow. Okay Yeah, a little hocus pocus sighting exactly but There's something that they may not know Yeah, apparently There were secret tunnels Under I'm not sure it's a town hall and the square area The town hall where you could actually folks would actually go to secretly visit brothels and maybe bootleg in some whiskey and things like that so So historians out there. Let us know in the comments Uh how much truth there is into that rumor we heard but let us know that's what we're hearing That's what rumors are for rumors are kind of those things where it's a rumor It could be true or it could not be true. That is the question I love how I love how like festive is here with the little uh market Going on here behind us like really kind of like a little flea market going on they got little dolls over there with witches and they got like some romantic essence herbs and and and romantic essence herbs romantic Oh, no, now you're getting down there you go And this is regular speed folks. I'm not sure if I could uh wear this shirt here Looks good on you though Uh, what do you think I think I can handle that one I think What about you got something like this? I know I thought I looked good on this fella right here though Kind of fits him a little better than me Right, but maybe that one. Yeah, i'm really all about the orange All about the orange But I can't really like uh fish very well I gotta say oh that's nice you like that's more subtle, right They're not scared of this. Yeah, but the other one's awfully bright like you You'll be like a beacon coming into that casino Well, I think when you gotta go for it just gotta go for it which one How about the grandpa swag So it's interesting babe, this is actually they call it the witch house But there actually weren't any witches that lived in here And this is also one of the only buildings left in salem that has a direct connection to the witch trials Actually one of the judges like judge corwin lived here who was one of the main judges during the witch trials You know, basically convicting all these uh, the four victims during the witch trials, but it's it's an amazing Building still standing, you know part of history. It's the only building that you can actually go inside. Yes, that's true And there's gifts as a gift shop Let's go check it out of all the gifts. Should we check it out? I think you should check out all the gifts in the gift shop. We're looking for gifts. We're on a mission for gifts Definitely Not meant for uh folks, uh with some height Oh, yeah, well babes. This is the first church in salem founded august 6 16 29 Also the first congregational church in america Right over there. Wow. It's a ropes mansion Right seen in hocus pocus. Yes This is allison's house That's right. It was all kind of I think it was all decked out for halloween wasn't it for halloween like He walked inside the guy that would liked her walked inside with his little sister, right? And then he went inside he blah blah blah, then he said something the sister didn't like so she came running outside and she kind of like Dived here. It was like really sad and it's like And it's like there's like there's like hay bales here so she could dive into the hay bales for halloween and then she was like No, not hailed anymore. He's like, would you just give me one more chance? She's like, why do I do that? he's like Because i'm your brother And she's like Where are you taking me? I'm taking you to Max and danny's house So they're from hocus pocus or the uh, brother and sister. Are you like miss hocus pocus today? You're part of the witch. It's a hocus pocus kind of day You ready to the private house right over there, huh? And there it is what a beautiful spot Where are we? Feels kind of familiar like from a movie like from a movie that's been Pretty popular around this parts for some time. Dave. What do you think? Hocus pocus. Does it look like max and danny's house behind me? Not more of that hocus pocus stuff. I'm just saying it's max and danny's house behind me, you know I remember that top exploding. I think yeah, I think that exploded in the movie and some witches came flying out But look they put it back together Perfectly perfect, perfect, right? It's absolutely perfect back together.

Definitely and it's approaching a little after seven. Yeah. No, it's time to get going. All right coffee Wow, this is a You know an incredibly powerful spot. This is a place that was recently Discovered to actually be the place where they believe or at least near here where they believe Um, the victims were actually hung during the salem witch trials I mean for years they thought it was actually further away up on a larger a larger hill But this is now, you know We believe to be the spot based on some research that was done and this is a nice memorial that they recently built here for the victims Yeah, I just find it incredible the historians that got together to piece the puzzles to find exactly where this memorial for the victims, uh happened so long ago to be able to kind of Isolate and pinpoint different things to say this most likely would be the place And there's actually a great program about it by the smithsonian that they put out which uh, it was really fascinating to watch Oh, I guess a moment of silence for Wow, so that was a fun, you know and very enlightening time here in salem and I I thought we'd learned More than expected. Oh, no, there's so much to learn here so much history You know, it's incredible because it's a solemn place right where there was just you know This horrible event that happened that the town itself is so full of life and so lively. It's an amazing place to visit Absolutely, and just being here you can actually feel you know The energy of the town you can feel the history of the town It's a lot more than just reading it in a book or even seeing it like this So if you have a chance to get out here uh Come out here to learn the history of this place because there's so much of it and by the way If you guys like more of these type of videos from us We're going to bring you more in depth of a town or a place that we're at On top of these fun hidden gems.
