GHOST SIGHTINGS

NEW ORLEANS GHOSTS AND THEIR HAUNTED STORIES

Cemetery Cities of the Dead, Voodoo legends and haunted locations draw as many tourists to New Orleans as the stylized Creole architecture, easy lifestyle, and great music. And a hungry traveler knows New Orleans is a treat destination offering fantastic and legendary dining opportunities to its visitors! Most restaurants stay open late, well past the Witching Hour and a delightful culinary experience can easily turn into a haunted dining pleasures! Elegant to casual the choice of dining is yours and famous restaurants and watering holes are spread across the entire city: Many are purported to be haunted by spirits of the dead, and some say the undead.

The nightlife of world famous Bourbon Street can be filled with dark shadows of ghostly figures and ghoulish delights. Bourbon Street will spark your interest with a myriad of bars and people-watching opportunities that are sure to raise an eyebrow. Catch a long hard glance at what might be called the only adult-theme amusement park in the United States. With X rated entertainment, souvenir shops, and adult the med gift shops “The City That Care Forgot" and it happily lives up to its decedent reputation! Spirits of the dead are said to mingle with the living here at many local night spots. Some tourists and many locals can not account for strange images in "Ghostly Photos" they have taken but one thing is certain: The Crescent City’s most famous street is open 24 hours a day, 365 days a year and spirits of all kinds are said to flow freely!

New Orleans is known for burlesque, bands and bohemian lifestyles and all are part of the normal routine. The city has many historical and haunted walking tours of the French Quarter (HAUNTED BY THE DEVIL BABY GHOST OF BOURBON STREET.), the Garden District and other areas. These tours will put you in touch with the City's long, rich history and exquisite architecture. You will see the bold and dramatic wrought iron balconies draped in ferns entangled with the iron lacework, an effect not unlike the hanging gardens of Babylon. This is one coveted treasure to capture on film: photograph the exquisite New Orleans balconies and you might just capture a ghost or two for your own personal memento. Many locations that playing an important part in the early history of our nation can be visited on these tours and most of these places are definitely haunted! These are the type of old houses filled with New Orleans charm that you would expect to be haunted. It's hard to imagine ghosts or haunted places in a location like Rocky Point Rentals on a sun-drenched beach in Mexico, but these New Orleans houses certainly fit the bill!

No visit is complete with out a stroll down Royal Street with its antique shops, and truly one of kind gift shops. The street is lined with art galleries, curio shops and private homes many of which have a reputation for being haunted. Historic Royal Street adds the charm of supernatural magic to your visit that will make your visit even more memorable. Nearby are Jackson Square, the Cabildo, the Presbetyre, and the majesty of St Louis Cathedral. The French Market, where farmers and fishermen have been plying their trade for centuries, is just a few blocks away as is the famous Cafe Du Monde with its coffee and beignets, the Old U.S. Mint, and the Moonwalk , the elevated walkway along the Mississippi River Levee with its spectacular view of the City, the River, and haunted Old Algiers: All these lend their charm as part of this great vista, with opportunities for fond memories and ghostly encounters at practically every turn. Like the famous song, “Do You Know what it Means, To Miss New Orleans?” you will quickly learn how hard it is to leave the Crescent City, and understand why some – living AND dead – never have!

Tours of New Orleans’ Famous Cemeteries bring to you the stark reality of the legendary "Cities of the Dead." Over ninety percent of all New Orleans burials are still above ground whether in wall vaults, or large-scale family tombs and crypts, the old tradition is still active today. These necropolis are not to be missed, but definitely do not miss a visit to the most famous tomb in the entire city: The very haunted last resting place of Marie Laveau the Famous Voodoo Queen of New Orleans! Her tomb is located in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 and it is said that her very own Secret Voodoo Society still exists today, visiting the spot regularly. Devoted followers treat her tomb as a shrine and on any given day a visitor can find many totems, fetishes, candles, and other gris-gris left in honor of the powerful Voodoo Queen. It is rumored that if you visit near the middle of June you might witness a ritual in her honor at the graveside. Another famous ritual to honor Marie Laveau is held each year on the banks of Bayou St. John in the Mid-City area. Followers attend dressed in white and bring offerings of flowers and hair ornaments to the legendary mighty Mambo of New Orleans Voodoo legend.

If you visit the tomb of Marie Laveau remember this great Haunted New Orleans Voodoo Wish Spell:

Knock three times to call her spirit. Make your wish and turn around three times in a clockwise direction and knock three times on the tomb again. Always leave some kind of offering – Marie Laveau is especially fond of hair ornaments but anything, from a coin, a flower, to a piece of candy, even Mardi Gras beads, will do. Also look near her tomb for the most valued masterpiece of purported ritual hex items, the Sacred Marie Laveau Voodoo Monkey and Cock. These fetishes are often left at her graveside and are a very lucky find!
The Uptown Garden District is filled with the fabled and sometimes forgotten history of old New Orleans. The stunning mansions line St. Charles Avenue with a beauty of years gone by while classic street cars travel the St. Charles Avenue stretch of neutral ground. A ride on one of these famous street cars is a definite on anyone’s list of things to do in Haunted New Orleans and is the best way to view the grandeur of the old homes. This is the area of the city made famous by the novels of Anne Rice whose own home is just blocks off the famous Avenue, on First Street. Experience the area that breathed life into the infamous vampire Lestat and served as the backdrop to the exploits of the Rice’s famous Mayfair Witches. It seems almost anyone can be inspired by the grandeur and history that is Uptown New Orleans. But be careful! You might just pick that haunted streetcar to ride in, or perhaps you will see the ghost couple waiting for their bus near Napoleon Avenue! Not only this, St. Charles Avenue is part of the traditional route of all the old line Mardi Gras parades.

New Orleans is a treasure trove for paranormal enthusiasts and offers something for everyone among the many tours available including the ever-popular Haunted History Tours, Ghost Tours, Haunted Vampire and Voodoo Tours, and historic walking tours. There are tours of the River Road and Plantations where you may encounter the Black Lady of Oak Alley or the ghosts of Destrehan or Houmas House. And let’s not forget the outlying areas from which New Orleans gets much of its rich, dark history filled with legends of the famous Loup Garou and encounters with the sasquatch-like creature haunting the Honey Island Swamp. You can experience these areas fist hand on any of the popular Swamp and Airboat Tours and boat tours of the Honey Island Swamp.

Pirates are part of these swamp legends too, and you can visit the dark, moss hung bayous where Jean Lafitte is said to have buried his treasure with ghostly guardians protecting it throughout eternity. Perhaps you may glimpse some of the deep glades and islands where swamp Voodoo Queens and Witches danced around fires in the dark, hot Louisiana nights. Zombies and ghouls are said to share the deep swamp shadows with alligators and snakes.

GRUNCH ROAD
One student and his girlfriend, thinking the little wooded road a good place to get cozy for a night out, pulled into Grunch Road out of sight of the main highway and turned off their headlights. With only the glow of the radio providing light, the two teens went quickly to work on their own particular "night moves."

GHOST OF CHICKEN MAN
It began to surface slowly, as people came back in twos and threes to live in the French Quarter, the beating heart of a city that had been abandoned to the ravages of Hurricane Katrina; and it was not among the locals that the talk began.

“Oh, I just saw the most realistic voodoo man!” said the FEMA worker to a group of her other friends inside Pat O’Brien’s main bar. These days it isn’t uncommon to see New Orleans bars brimming with FEMA and other recovery and reconstruction personnel. With the lack of tourists, these have been the main customers in the once busy bars and clubs that are bringing the Quarter back to life.

“STORIES OF OLD NEW ORLEANS”

“The Bone Pile”

Throughout the world there are many, varied and curious ways of disposing of the dead. In the mountains of Abyssinia is a people who believe a man should be buried where he dies without pomp or ceremony; neither should the remains be moved from the exact site of death one foot more than is necessary.

This practice is thousands of miles away; let us come to our own country, and in New Orleans we find another queer, unique mode of burial. In order to more clearly understand this mode of burial, we should first know something of her cemeteries, which are more than thirty in number.
