Our Journey

Under Jeff’s leadership, Bewitched After Dark earned the Trip Advisor’s Travelers Choice award in 2020, a testament to his commitment to quality and excellence in historical storytelling.

In 2022, seeking to expand his creative vision and offer an even more immersive experience, Jeff embarked on a new venture. Teaming up with his sister Lori, they launched 1692 Before and After LLC, a walking tour designed to delve deeper into the events that shaped Salem, both before and after the infamous 1692 Witch Trials.
