The most iconic "square" in history. This public park was originally called Place d' Arms, or place of arms. Many an execution took place in this area leaving behind the trauma that we call a haunting.
This famous alley was used by pirates such as Jean Lafitte as a black market to sell goods stolen from Spanish ships in the Gulf of Mexico and the Caribbean. Many a deal gone wrong was settled by a duel in its neighboring garden. The sounds of the market place and the dueling gardens are said to be heard in the wee hours of the morning.
Most of our haunted tours include a break in a haunted bar (except for youth private groups). This iconic bar is a favorite for many guests. Once used as a blacksmith shop, it is the oldest operating bar in the country. It is home to a wide array of ghosts including that of Jean Lafitte it is said.
Mad Madame LaLaurie is the most infamous murderer and most hated in our city's history. Find out why!
The party never ends and neither do the spirits' activity on Bourbon Street.

About New Orleans
New Orleans is the Louisiana city of jazz, Creole food and the French Quarter, set on a bend of the Mississippi River near the Gulf of Mexico.
New Orleans was founded by the French in 1718 and later ruled by Spain, and the French Quarter still shows it, with wrought-iron balconies, courtyards and Jackson Square, which St Louis Cathedral overlooks. Jazz was born here, and live music pours from clubs on Frenchmen Street. The St Charles streetcar rattles beneath oaks to the mansions of the Garden District.
