What to expect
300-year-old haunted French Quarter neighborhood
You explore a 300-year-old European neighborhood in New Orleans that is regarded as the most haunted city in America. As you walk along uneven sidewalks and streets, your guide leads you between haunted sites documented by paranormal investigators.
Features
You hear eerie stories and dark secrets from this 300-year-old haunted neighborhood, including real chronicles of life and death shaped by fires, epidemics, hurricanes, floods, wars, slavery, and conflict. The guide focuses on how these events created the mythical presence that makes New Orleans the most haunted city in America.
During the guided walking tour of New Orleans haunted sites, you visit locations that have been documented by paranormal investigators. With a ghost sighting guarantee on every tour, you are encouraged to stay alert to unusual movements or figures around these sites.
Using augmented reality software, similar to Pokemon GO, created by local artist Marcus Brown, you point your iPhone or iPad at key spots to reveal interactive ghosts and spirits. The software adds digital layers to the streets, letting you see scenes that are not visible to the naked eye.
There is a dedicated photo opportunity with Voodoo Queen Marie Laveau, where you can pose with her through the augmented reality software and hear Voodoo stories that trace the evolution of Voodoo in New Orleans. You can also use the experience to visually “crackle” in the Great Fire of 1788, placing yourself inside one of the city’s defining disasters.
