New Orleans doesn’t forget. She may dress up her grief in sequins and song, but the past lingers here like humidity—thick, clinging, undeniable.
Shadows of the French Quarter is not your carnival ghost tour. This is a reckoning walk through the French Quarter’s haunted heart, where supernatural tales twist around the real bones of tragedy, crime, and resistance. We trace the lingering spirits not just of the dead—but of the silenced, the wronged, and the forgotten.
Yes, we will stop at the LaLaurie Mansion. But you’ll hear what most tours won’t tell you: that Madame Delphine’s and Dr. LaLaurie's true monstrosities were not some Gothic fiction, but the very real, systemic torture of enslaved people. Their horror wasn’t supernatural—it was social, racial, and all too human. And yet, the hauntings there feel all the more powerful because of that truth.
From there, we wander by alleys soaked in crime lore, courtyards whispered to be vampire lairs, and homes that breathe sorrow through the walls. We’ll explore true murders whitewashed by polite history, and restless spirits that refuse to be prettied up for tourists.
Told with grit, reverence, and a touch of candlelit poetry, this tour is for those who want to feel the weight of history and mystery pressed into the stones of this city. Not everything that haunts you is dead.
