One amazing place to have dinner is Top of the Hub in boston, one of my favorite places for sure. Amazing view and amazing food. Not really the "hole in the wall" place your looking for though. But just in case your ever up for a nice dinner thats the place to go.
I have been in salem for halloween before and just a heads up. Be prepared to be stuck in traffic and large crowds ALL night haha. Sorry I cant give advice on the bars, I dont ever go.

Salem on Halloween is like Mardi Gras in N'awlins... might be more fun, but the crowds are too much. Also, the town takes on a schizo vibe in that there's the costumed partying going on side-by-side with solemn candlelight vigils to Gallows Hill. Then, of course, there are the holy-roller types telling everyone else that they are going to hell... Odd place indeed on Samhain!Originally Posted by Exclamation
Have fun, and enjoy one of my favorite places. Wish I could be there too!

I remember watching Salem's Lot on T.v. when I was about 11 or 12 and it scared the living bejesus out of me when the Vampire boy appeared at the window!
Didn't some massacre or Witch-hunt happen there once?

Yup. Back in the late 1600s, there was a nasty combination of religious hysteria and just plain corruption that caused many people to lose all their possessions and property if not their lives. Want your neighbor's farm? Call "Witch", and it's yours! When people of "higher standing" started being accused of Witchcraft, the stupidity was put to a quick end. Luckily it was short lived, and not as wide spread as the evils in Europe.
