New Orleans Dead of Night Ghosts and Cemetery Bus Tour
Overview
Available languages
2 hours
Mobile ticket
Escape into the darkness with your licensed guide on an air-conditioned bus to some of the most haunted locations in New Orleans outside of the French Quarter. Cross one of the most notorious streets in America as we make our way down scenic Esplanade Avenue telling tales of tragedy, trauma, and mystery which has made us the most haunted city in America. All locations are alive with paranormal activity. Visit real cemeteries at night! Bring your camera, you won't want to miss this!
We have offered this tour for over 4 years now and are amazed by what our guests experience. People capture full-bodies apparitions not only on photographs but see them with the naked eye. People have heard whispers in their ears, felt the touch of someone brushing their cheek or stroking their hair, and sometimes even have a ghost photo bomb their pictures! Keep an open mind - you never know what might happen on this very haunted tour. (we do not disclose which cemetery you will visit-it's a surprise)

What To Expect
In the 19th century, an area along Bayou St. John was reputedly the location of many voodoo rituals by Marie Laveau. The Magnolia Bridge over the Bayou continues to serve as a site for such rituals every St. John's Eve.
St. Louis Cemetery No. 3
Your introduction to haunted burial ground begin at the gates of this cemetery built in the 1800s during the yellow fever epidemics as the city ran out of room to bury its dead. Everything was something else before it is what it is today. This famous burial location was once a lepers colony with a cemetery of its own. You might say it's a cemetery on top of a cemetery.

5.00We had an amazing time. Shannon our guide was amazing and knowledgeable about the history and the paranormal. I shared a picture of something that I had captured and Shannon guessed my heritage based on what was in the picture. Perry our bus driver was great and shared his life story during Hurricane Katrina. They were both extremely kind and inviting.

5.00Christian was amazing! Really enjoyed the history and the humor. Ride was air conditioned, which made it that much more pleasant! The stop at the cafe only takes cash, so bring cash if you plan on eating or getting anything to drink. Would do it again!
