Witches, ghost hunters gather in Salem

[Carol]

SALEM — Dozens of witches, psychics and ghost hunters in Salem have finished two conventions on the "paranormal world."

GhoStock 7 — a four-day conference for paranormal investigators — ended Sunday after a group of ghost hunters searched for spirits at local hot spots like the Hawthorne Hotel’s basement. Others presented photos of what they believed to be ghosts.

The Illinois-based Witch School International also wrapped up its "three days of Wicca, Witchcraft and High Ritual" gathering. Attendees had lunch from a "Bewitched Menu," containing items served during filming of the Salem episodes of the TV show "Bewitched" 40 years ago.

Both conferences attracted people from around the country.
