Places
Hotel
Andrew Jackson won the Battle of New Orleans in January 1815 and two months later was fined $1,000 for contempt of court in a federal courthouse on this site. New Orleans TV station FOX 8 calls the hotel one of the city's most haunted.
Museum
Louis Dufilho Jr., whom the museum calls America's first licensed pharmacist, had this shop built in 1822 and 1823. The stories make its ghost Dr. James Dupas, whose family bought it in 1855: a short man in a brown suit who throws books.
Church
The Ursuline nuns finished this convent in 1752. Legend has it the shutters on its third floor were nailed shut to keep in vampires, carried to New Orleans in the trunks of the "casket girls."
House
On April 10, 1834, a fire at Delphine LaLaurie's Royal Street mansion revealed seven enslaved people who had been starved, tortured, and chained. By 1889, the writer George Washington Cable was calling it "The Haunted House in Royal Street."
