Wynott's Wands Ready for Halloween in Salem
Here's a closer look inside Salem's new Wynotts Wands shop, which opened on Pickering Wharf last month.
Everything about Wynott's Wands is straight out of a Harry Potter novel.
From the store's cashier, decked out from head to toe like Albus Dumbledore, to the rows of magic wands at the ready, exact replicas of those found for sale in the book series' famed Diagon Alley.
The wand shop, which opened on Pickering Wharf in September, is gearing up for its first Halloween in Salem, and management said they are hoping that the holiday rush will help put the store on the map.
