Here in the Vieux Carre, you’ll hear how this Mississippi port became home to characters of all types, including criminals. We’ll walk down Pirate’s Alley and hear legends behind its name as well as that of the Cabildo, formerly a prison site. We’ll pass by a mansion with a chilling past and one that highlights our nation’s complicated history of slavery. And no haunted tour dealing with the macabre and occult can omit the stories of voodoo and its so-called queen now interred in one of New Orleans’ famed above-ground cemeteries.
