Places
Bar
By tradition, the pirate Jean Lafitte and his brother Pierre posed as blacksmiths in this late-1700s cottage to cover their illegal trade in enslaved people. Ghost tours tell of bartenders and patrons spotting Jean at a table near the piano bar.
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."
Church
The priest Père Antoine wrote that fire engulfed the church before this cathedral "in less than half an hour" on March 21, 1788. Guides tell of his ghost humming hymns in the alley that carries his name.
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."
