This isn't my photo, my decorations or my kitchen. However, I purchased an identical black cat with long hat table top decoration a few years ago at an estate sale.

There's no need to be discouraged, most of the venues are open like the Salem Witch Museum, The House of the Seven Gables, (built in 1668 and made famous by author Nathaniel Hawthorne) and the Salem Heritage Trail remain open, however the Salem Maritime National Historical Park is closed by order of the National Parks Service.
