When You Meet Magic on a Park Bench in Salem, MA

There are moments in life that sparkle with such authenticity and joy that they stay in your heart forever. This story is one of those magical moments — a reminder that love, kindness, and connection can appear anywhere, even on a park bench.

While walking through Salem one beautiful day, I was dancing with Jack Skellington (yes, the magic of Salem always brings surprises!) when I spotted something that made me smile — a woman wearing one of The Good Witch of Salem’s signature pink witch hats.

Of course, I had to go over and say hello. As I approached her, the moment felt straight out of a movie — almost like something from Barbie, with the same sweetness and glow of self-love and sisterhood.

I told her how beautiful she looked and asked where she got her hat. She smiled and said, “Yes! I got it from The Good Witch of Salem!”

When I told her that I was The Good Witch of Salem, her reaction was pure love and joy. Her face lit up, her excitement was genuine, and her energy was so warm that it filled my heart.

It’s moments like these that remind me why I do what I do — to spread love, positivity, and a little magic wherever I go. To see that joy reflected back is a gift beyond words.

Let’s continue to share kindness, creativity, and light in our world. You never know when you’ll meet a little bit of magic — maybe even on a park bench. 💖
