Never go to Salem in October with Adam & Art Antczak

Salem, the North Shore city with a long and complicated history, is now in the midst of a new chapter: Halloweenmania! Beginning before the first leaf even turns, its annual Halloween Happenings attracts tourists from around the globe, packing the streets and causing headaches in surrounding towns. How did it get this way? To chat about this spooky phenomenon, I'm joined by brothers Adam and Art Antczak, a couple of dudes who have lived in and around Salem for decades. We talk about the time Bewitched came to town, the title of "official witch," the Hocus Pocus of it all, and why they can't visit their mother in October. Plus, Gritty, Plymouth Rock, and somewhere called Misery Island. Here is a link to the scariest haunted house setting imaginable. Here is the 2024/25 Celtics City Jersey. "A reject from Sesame Street" — the initial reaction to Gritty. Have feedback on this episode or ideas for upcoming topics? DM me on Instagram, email me, or send a voice memo.
