True stories of true crime. The most realistic of the tours I saw happening at night.

5.00This was such an amazing tour. Our guide, Lucy, was animated but not so much that she seemed to be acting out a play. I saw other tour guides who tried to tell their stories like a campfire spooky story to a child and I would have been annoyed with that. She confirmed that everything she told us was based on police reports and peer reviewed articles and other real sources and was sure to point out what was “lore” or “myth”. I really appreciated the realistic nature of this tour. The ghost portion was minimal, which I personally preferred as I cared more about the crime stories. Highly highly recommend. There were about 20 of us, which was fine. I did an 8pm tour which was fun because it was dark and made it a little spookier. We visited various spots and heard stories, even got a bathroom break as a group when someone requested. Take this tour. You won’t regret it. And if you do, they have a 5 star money back guarantee. Don’t like it? Get your money back!
Fun tour, Lucy is great!

5.00This tour was fun and very informative!!! This was not a “ghost” tour, but instead you learned a lot about the dark history of New Orleans. Our guide, Jamie, was passionate about giving fact based information in all its gory details!
Great! Highly recommend!

5.00Lucy was awesome! She kept the audience engaged, her story telling was top notch! The stories were told with detail. You could really see she knows the history well and loves what she does.
Creepy (in a good way), wish it was longer!

5.00Had an excellent time with our tour guide Lucy. She was knowledgeable, and would be honest about what is a historical fact and what is New Orleans lore. The only bad thing about this tour is that it wasn’t longer!
