Museum of Witchcraft

The Museum of Witchcraft is a location located in the northeastern area of the Commonwealth in 2287.Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide Collector's Edition p.329: "[4.05] MUSEUM OF WITCHCRAFTA historic church greets visitors wishing to learn more about Salem’s past, though the greeting is initially more subdued. The front door is chained, and the only entrance is via a basement hatch. Inside, it appears something terrifying is haunting this place. Need to reach the attic? A jetpack is in order."(Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide Map) It is to the east of Hugo's Hole and just west of Salem.
==Background==
This historical church once offered information on Salem's past, especially its sordid history dealing with witchcraft.
==Layout==
On the outside, the museum resembles a Gothic-style church. The main door to the building is chained from the inside, but the cellar door on the side can be used to access the basement and unchain the door. 
There are two hollowed-out rocks behind the museum: one next to some graves and another behind the destroyed house. A crashed Stingray Deluxe is located on a small island to the east of the museum.
Outside, near the basement entrance lies the body of Private Hart, a Gunner who has been torn apart by the leveled deathclaw residing on the main floor. In the basement, the body of Major Jefferies and two of his squad lie dead, ostensibly due to the deathclaw upstairs. The inside of the building is nearly demolished, with not much left to hint that it once was a museum. 
On the main floor, at the northwest corner of the museum and near the body of Sergeant Lee in the bathroom, are several cracked deathclaw eggs. Among the shells and debris, one can find a pristine deathclaw egg. In the foyer with the chained door is the museum visitor's terminal, giving a basic overview of the museum's exhibits, including the witchcraft walk, relic collection, and membership booth.
==Notable loot==
* Grognak the Barbarian issue #10 - On a table by the south wall on the upper floor.
* Sergeant Lee's holotape - On the first floor, in the bathroom next to its owner Sergeant Lee.
* Private Hart's holotape - Outside, on Private Hart's remains, close to the cellar entrance.
* An overdue book - On the ground in the basement, next to the skeleton sitting at the school desk, facing the corner.
* A Vault-Tec lunchbox - Near the basement entrance under a table with a folding chair and a candle on it.
* A Revolutionary sword - Sticking out of the skeleton's chest in the hidden, secret room in the ceiling (can only be reached by using a jet pack on power armor).
* Pristine deathclaw egg - On the top floor near the main entrance.
* Note - In the hollowed out rock close to the east wall.
* Player's story - On the first floor, in a display case.

* The Paper Mirror
==Notes==
* The Fallout 4 Vault Dweller's Survival Guide refers to the location as a church as opposed to a museum.
* There is a hidden room above where the deathclaw spawns on the main floor, higher up in the ceiling. The room can be accessed by using power armor with a jet pack to fly through a hole in the ceiling. Doors in the room are non-functional and barricaded, and no stairs lead up here. There is a skeleton impaled on a table with a Revolutionary sword, pinning it down.
* A desk and blackboards indicate that some rooms, including the normally inaccessible one, may have served as classrooms.
* If one revisits the basement after killing the deathclaw, rumbling sounds and camera shaking can still occur.
