The PBH was built in 1715 for Rev. Thomas Barnard, who was one of the ministers connected to the Andover witchcraft hysteria of 1692 and was wrongly believed to have been an instigator of the accusations, which historical research has proven incorrect.  Rev. Barnard was actually working to help those victims who had been accused of witchcraft!   

Tim Weisberg, a paranormal investigator, will be returning to the Parson Barnard House on the evening of Saturday October 12th for the first time in many years to continue his investigation and correct the historical record. Join NAHS and Tim on October 12th. Tickets for this event are $75 each and are LIMITED TO JUST 35 PEOPLE. That price includes dinner, snacks and drinks all night, lectures, a historical tour and hours of guided investigation.

Tickets are available on the Spooky Salem website below with a portion going to the North Andover Historical Society.
