Description

New Orleans is America’s most haunted city. With over 300 years of fires, hurricanes, murders, and tragedies marring its history, the spirits that roam the French Quarter outnumber the living. Come explore the deep, dark past of some of NOLA's most iconic landmarks on a 1-hour guided walking tour. You’ll meet your guide at Jackson Square, where the town executioner and his victims are trapped together for eternity. From there, you’ll weave through the famous Spanish-style architecture of Chartres and Royal Streets, hitting six other haunted sites along the way. Feel a chill crawl up your spine as you approach the infamous LaLaurie Mansion, where a seemingly harmless socialite tortured and murdered her slaves. Hear the strange story of the Ursuline Convent Vampires, and get to know the resident spirit at Muriel’s. His presence is so frequent they keep a table set out for him. End your tour with an optional seance in the restaurant’s seance lounge, or head out into the neon-lit streets of the original “city that never sleeps.” Just pay attention to what might be lurking in the shadows… Learn the history of this iconic American city from the spirits who lived it. Book a tour today! All tours meet and end in the French Quarter at the St. Louis Cathedral, 615 Pere Antoine Alley, at the front of the steps to the entrance facing Jackson Square. Your guide will be wearing a US Ghost Adventures t-shirt and carrying a lantern. Please arrive 15 minutes before your tour start time
