From the 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.
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.
The Sultan’s Palace
The Sultan’s Palace is an opulent French Quarter mansion with a dark and mysterious past. In the 1800s, it was said to be the residence of a Turkish sultan who met a gruesome end, alongside his harem, in a blood-soaked massacre. Today, the mansion is shrouded in eerie tales of ghostly apparitions, blood-curdling screams, and the overpowering scent of incense lingering in the air.
