Yes, You Really Can Visit the Town Hall From 'Hocus Pocus'—Here's How

In the movie's opening scene, before Thackery Binx becomes a black cat at the hand of the supernatural siblings, he's seen frantically running through a village in search of his sister. Turns out, this snippet is set in Salem's Pioneer Village, which seemingly hasn't aged a day since the Witch Trials themselves. The three-acre property serves as a colonial blast from the past, from the food to the architecture, and gets its claim to fame as the country's first living history museum.

Of course, if you can't make it all the way to Salem to explore this creepy village, you can always follow our lead and create your own.
