Media Inquires and Research for TV, Movies, Radio, and Books on Salem MA and More!!!
Chris Dowgin has helped scouts from Columbia Pictures, The Travel Channel, and Discovery Channel research and film the Tunnels of Salem MA. In January 2018 Chris was filmed with Robert Irvine in the tunnels of Salem for his new show and toured with scouts during the filming of Flatliners by Columbia Pictures in 2014. He has the locations and contacts to gain access to the various tunnels in Salem and the history of those people who had built them. Also he has given authors private tours of Salem and the history of the tunnels to be used for creations of their works like Carol Perry of Witch City Mysteries. He has also helped local TV and radio stations produce content on the tunnels.
Also Chris' research has been used in The Librarians TV show and Janet Evanovich's/ Phoef Sutton's Wicked Charms. If you have a book project, Chris is available to help you with your research objectives.

History and Location of Lynch Park
Lynch Park is the meeting place for our tours. It has an interesting history. It was once the summer White House for two years during William Howard Taft's presidency. A stay which didn't end well with the woman who had owned it had to be restrained from burning the residence down after she evicted him. The house was named Stetson Hall, named after the man who built it and invented the cowboy hat. The house was saved by Louise Dupont Crowninshield and her husband Keno Crowninshield and moved across the harbor on two barges to Peach's Point in Marblehead. The mansion used to reside where the rose garden is now. Click here for a complete history. The house also appears in The Sinclair Narratives' tale in Arkham: Tales from the Flipside.
