About New Orleans Ghosts

New Orleans has so many activities that can occupy a day, if it’s not Mardis Gras season (late winter) or if the heat is too much, the WWII museum is a must-see, or the New Orleans Museum of Art has an amazing sculpture garden if that is more your speed.

The nights in New Orleans are spoken for, or rather sung for, with the streets coming to life at night. But between a Po’boy or a Beignet strolling around under the hanging vines of City Park and an evening of music and revelry, there is a gap. One we propose to help you fill.

Our hour-long standard Ghost walking tour will educate and entertain, thrill and delight! Over a little less than a mile on the atmospheric streets of the French Quarter, we will introduce you to the history of the town, trapped between the angry sea, vengeful river, and the fetid swamps.

Our extended tour will take you deeper into the haunted French Quarter of this city at the heart of French, African, and American influences.

Hear about the mischievous five children who prank the guests of the Andrew Jackson hotel on Royal Street, or the vengeful Ghost of Marguerite, who fulfilled her promise of returning from the grave to kill her lover, and the younger woman had left her for.

Each of the stories will transport you to a different age in front of the very locations where these stories actually happened. No museum can manage that, and yet our history is museum-quality, well researched, and accurate.

Book your tour today, and we’ll see you in Jackson Square!

Why is New Orleans so haunted?

Guidelines

Remain calm.

A spirit may touch you, but don’t panic! It might just be a long-dead Jazzman come back to serenade us.

Be polite.

The ghosts of Nola have been known to bite! Be kind to the undead.

Do not provoke the spirits.

It’s hard enough down here; please don’t make their eternal turmoil harder than it has to be.

Stay together.

We don’t want to lose any guests to the spirit world; if you get tempted to follow the ghostly trumpet sounds, check your party can hear them too.

Watch your step.

Nola has claimed many lives over the years, gambling, debts, lost fortunes, and doomed love, but there has not yet been a Nola Ghosts tour fatality, let’s try and keep it that way!
