118. Salem History: The Ropes Mansion (part 2)

Last week we chatted about the historic Ropes Mansion...but there's more to share! In part 2 we'll share some ghost stories, talk about the gardens, and highlight fun details from when we visited the property! Join Jeffrey and Sarah, your favorite Salem tour guides, as they keep exploring the Ropes Mansion. Listen closely to learn about ghostly fires, a Hocus Pocus easter egg, and what inspired Sarah's new spoon obsession!
