VISIT THE HAUNTED LALAURIE MANSION AND MORE ON THE NEW ORLEANS GHOST TOUR

Witches, Voodoo queens, and vampires run parallel to the world-renowned
celebrations and party-loving tourists that flood the city year after year. New
Orleans holds a special place in the United States yet acts as a world all its
own. There is no shortage of oddities in The Big Easy, each offering a unique
reason for the myriad of visitors that make the journey.

New Orleans’ primary claim to fame is the nonstop party that is Mardi Gras, as
well as its unrivaled Jazz music, exquisite Creole cuisine, and eccentric
attractions. But its party atmosphere can’t mask its dark roots that feed evil
into the city’s deadly underbelly.

Mansions with tortured souls as inhabitants, Squares that served as execution
sites, voodoo used for spells and possession, and cemeteries filled with the
spirits of NOLA’s demented past have created a city unlike any other—a city
where the dead dance with the living and black magic is in the air.


THE OTHERWORLDLY SIDE OF NEW ORLEANS

From Civil War soldiers to tortured slaves, Great Fires, and even murdered mafia
hitmen, the ghosts of New Orleans are as varied as the city itself. Stand in the
very streets where Madame Laveau, a Louisiana Creole VooDoo practitioner and
“Queen of Voodoo, gained notoriety for her spells and undeniable abilities.
Today, her gravesite remains a shrine and place where people continue to request
her magic be done.

Visit sites that were tragically affected by the Great Fires, including The
Andrew Jackson Hotel. Located on the grounds where The Great Fire of 1794
claimed a boarding school and the lives of five boys, the hotel is known for its
eerie activity and spooky haunts. And each location only gets creepier and
darker from there.


VISIT NOLA’S MOST HAUNTED LOCATIONS, INCLUDING:


THE LALAURIE MANSION

Madame Marie Delphine McCarty was born into a wealthy family, and along with her
third husband, Frenchman M. LaLaurie, became the toast of the town. During one
of their extravagant parties, a fire broke out, exposing the couple’s darkest,
most horrid secret: the captivity and treatment of her slaves. Today, it’s known
as one of the most haunted homes in New Orleans and quite possibly the nation.


OLD URSULINE CONVENT

The Old Ursuline Convent is one of the oldest buildings in the Mississippi
Valley, once housing the French order of Ursuline nuns and orphan girls from
French convents. Sent to the new world as potential suitors for French men
making their fortunes in French Louisiana’s colonies, it’s believed the girls
brought European vampires with them upon their arrival.


JACKSON SQUARE

Named after then-General Andrew Jackson, Jackson Square once served two purposes
for the city: ceremonies and parades and public executions. The unnerving sounds
of screams from the condemned can still be heard in the square, and some have
reported even seeing the former slave turned executioner, Louis Congo himself.


HAUNTED NEW ORLEANS: VOODOO, VAMPIRES, MURDER, AND MYSTERY

The mystique of NOLA is amplified by strange, unexplained, and fantastic
hauntings that have made the city one of the most haunted in America. New
Orleans Ghosts takes you on a journey to answer the who, what, how, and why
behind the city’s notorious history of tragedy, mystery, and death.


THE SHAPING OF A SPECTRAL CITY

From its inception, New Orleans has been the site of some unbelievable and
horrific events. This perfect melting pot of occurrences has created terrifying
activity that continues to both intrigues and baffles all those who visit The
Big Easy.


1817-1905: YELLOW FEVER RAVAGES THE CITY

The 1800s and early 1900s were a trying time for New Orleans. The Yellow Fever
outbreak claimed the lives of thousands in unimaginable fashion, with symptoms
ranging from fever and chills to the hemorrhaging of blood from various bodily
orifices. Bodies piled up, so much so that the city established a designated
area for them to keep them away from the rest of the population, but to no
avail.

Patients were often taken to the Pharmacy Museum in the hopes that they would be
cured. Instead, most were experimented on and ended up in worse shape than when
they arrived. Today, the Pharmacy Museum is said to be one of the most haunted
buildings in New Orleans, overtaken by the spirits of that dismal time.


THE GREAT FIRES OF 1788 AND 1794

Before Yellow Fever threatened to wipe out the people of NOLA, two Great Fires
ripped through the area, nearly burning the entire city to the ground. In 1788,
a fire sparked in the home of the Treasurer and Paymaster of the Spanish Army,
destroying more than 850 structures and killing thousands. The fire of 1794 was
minimal compared to its predecessor though it still claimed over 200 more
structures.

The buildings were all reconstructed, but they weren’t the only casualties of
the Fires that were resurrected. The victims of these destructive fires can be
seen and felt all over the city. Some are more prominent in particular areas,
such as Muriel’s Jackson Square, which was rebuilt only to experience another
horrific tragedy.


VOODOO MAKES ITS WAY TO THE BIG EASY

This misunderstood practice is one that New Orleans is well-known for. Brought
to New Orleans in the 1700s by slaves, it was Madame Marie Laveau, who would go
on to become the “Queen of Voodoo” for her success in the practice in the 1800s.

Though historians debate her actual abilities, it hasn’t stopped her reputation
from continuing to draw crowds from all over the globe. Her prominence and
promotion of the practice have influenced various forms of entertainment, with
American Horror Story: Coven being one of the most known in pop culture.


EXPERIENCE THE OTHERWORLDLY SIDE OF NEW ORLEANS

Whether you’re visiting for Mardi Gras or looking to take in the best Jazz music
in the nation, you can’t leave NOLA without experiencing the side of the city
that gives it its haunted reputation. You don’t have to believe in ghosts to
take a New Orleans Ghosts tour – you just need to be prepared.


FAMOUS HAUNTED FACES OF NEW ORLEANS

The most well-known of the spirits of NOLA is that of Madame Laveau, who is
still sought-after even in the afterlife. Her spirit is said to be seen at her
Voodoo shop as well as her gravesite, still powerful enough to grant wishes.

The Beauregard-Keyes House is named after the occupants who inhabited it while
living and continue to inhabit it in death. Though they occupied the home nearly
100 years apart, it’s said that Francis Parkinson Keyes befriended the ghost of
General Beauregard, choosing to join him in the home following her passing. And
both of whom are still seen to this day.

We encourage you to use the EMF detectors available during your tour, as they’ll
give you an idea of New Orleans’s most active areas. Even if you consider
yourself a non-believer, we ask that you keep an open mind and get ready to get
a history lesson of New Orleans you won’t experience anywhere else.

Welcome to New Orleans Ghosts.




WITH SO MANY TOURS AND ACTIVITIES TO CHOOSE FROM NOLA GHOSTS, HOW DO YOU CHOOSE
WHICH ONES TO BOOK?


WHY US

You are a fan of the otherworldly

We endeavor to delight all guests with fantastic stories of the ghosts in the
very places that they haunt. Sometimes groups will encounter unexplained
activity while on tour. You might be one of these lucky people.

New Orleans has several official and unofficial religions. With a rich and
splendid past, there are many kinds of ghosts and hauntings here, layered on top
of a rich and exotic VooDoo culture, and if you add in the tales of Vampires,
The Crescent City quickly rises to the top of any supernatural enthusiasts list
of hotspots.

You want a crash course in the history of this magnificent town

Every tale comes from a different era in the colorful history of New Orleans; we
paint a vivid picture of the lives and loves of the ghosts we visit. Like the
French Creole master and his Octoroon mistress whom he loved but did not leave
his wife for.

Hear her tale of a cruel and heartless death as she waited naked and freezing on
the roof of their cottage just to prove her love for him while he played cards
in the warm indoors below. His lovelorn ghost roams the roofs of the French
Quarter seeking out the love he put to death.

We recount will many other stories of death and terror on the streets of NOLA
and the touching, personal stories that led to such tragic, untimely deaths that
mean their spirits cannot pass on peacefully.

You want something that works for everyone, regardless of age

We may be historically accurate and unnaturally scary, but we’re also
appropriate for all ages. No matter who you are or why you’re in New Orleans,
we’ll make sure you have a great time on your ghost tours. Fully accessible and
open to all ages.

Couples are especially welcome. A ghost tour makes a great date, and have seen
many romances blossom while listening to terrifying stories on the streets of
the Crescent City.

You have a short stay in New Orleans

We can help you get the most out of your short stay here in the Crescent City.
As well as an entertaining spell of time with your professional and experienced
tour guides, you get to see some of the prime sights and sounds of the New
Orleans French Quarter.

Such will be the power of the stories. We promise that you will have no trouble
recounting the history and the horror of the sites you saw. They say a story is
ten times more memorable than a fact, and boy! do we have some stories for you?

You don’t believe in ghosts

Not everyone has the capacity to experience the supernatural. Children, animals,
and a few others can feel the energies of the dead. If you are not among them,
don’t worry; this tour will give you plenty to scoff at. But hear the stories;
every ghost tale contains a moral, a lesson, or some wisdom from the past.

You will hear about the verifiable history of New Orleans and its layered and
gruesome past. We promise to commit to accuracy in the historical presentations
and only the most well-reported and confirmed ghost stories.
