Ready for a spine-tingling journey? Come along, thrill-seekers! Masterminded by the eminent parapsychologist Dr. Edward Simon, this adults-only historical stroll catapults the adventurous back to the city's darkest corners and to the forgotten settlement that the notorious occultist Aleister Crowley ominously dubbed the “Quartier Macabre.” This enigmatic city straddles the realms of both living and divine, a place so fascinating that time itself seems to stand still. On one enchanted evening, the thrill-seekers will unveil the notorious history of Gallatin Street, once a teeming red-light district. Expect riveting tales of Bricktop Jackson, the fiery night lady whose siren call ensnared hearts and whose blade ran rampant. Alternatively, one might come face to face with the city's earliest and most influential witch coven, hearing whispered tales of arcane rituals, before being treated to chilling vampire lore at the Old Ursuline Convent.

The Dim Corner Tour

Get in touch with New Orleans' spooky side with the Dim Corner tour. Sinful stories of brothel girls on Gallatin Street, who stole hearts and wallets with equal skill, a statue of one of the most famous witches in history, and perhaps a visit to a haunted insane asylum that now functions as a vampire den. And that's just for starters. Rinse that taster of evil away with cold cocktails and frothy beers before the tour picks up again with a visit to a coven once run by a local magician. You'll also get the chance to learn some Louisiana vampire lore at the old Ursuline Convent, all while admiring architecture that would seem fitting for America's vampires. The tour ends on an even scarier note than the supernatural. Learn about a pair of historic homicides that continue to haunt New Orleans natives today.
