The Ghost & Vampire tour, uncensored and adults-only. Explicit stories, intimate groups of just 16 guests, and a bar stop midway. The stories guides can't tell when families are around.
“We did the 21+ Ghost and Vampires tour in the French Quarter. Kathryn was incredible! I adored her storytelling and she clearly has an incredible wealth of historical knowledge. I would absolutely recommend anyone to take her tour!”
“Lenny was very knowledgeable and helpful when booking the tour! Would definitely book again.”
“I worked with Lenny to book tours for my company while we were in town for a conference. Lenny was amazing and accommodating. He helped me pick the right tours and even arranged transportation to the swamp!”
This is our award-winning Ghost & Vampire tour with the velvet rope up. Adults only, uncensored, and intimate. While our regular Ghost and Vampire tour welcomes families and groups of up to 28 guests, this 8 PM experience is reserved exclusively for those 18 and older, with a maximum of just 16 guests per guide. That means more interaction with your guide and the freedom to share the darker details that don't make it into the family-friendly version.
Walk the gaslit streets of the French Quarter as your guide reveals the true stories of New Orleans' most haunted locations. You'll stand near the courtyard where Delphine LaLaurie tortured her victims and hear exactly what rescuers found that night. You'll learn why New Orleans has more vampire legends than any other American city. Bring a cocktail along for the stroll, and halfway through we'll stop at a haunted French Quarter bar for another round.
If you've done ghost tours before and found them a little too tame, this is your upgrade. Same legendary locations, same spine-tingling stories. Just without the filter.

Same legendary locations and spine-tingling stories, but without the filter. Our regular Ghost & Vampire tour welcomes families and groups up to 28 guests.

Yes. Expect graphic descriptions of violence, explicit language, true crime details, and mature themes throughout. If you've done ghost tours before and found them a little sanitized, this is the upgrade. Our guides don't hold back.
Absolutely. This is New Orleans. Grab a go-cup from any bar before we start, and we'll stop at a haunted French Quarter bar halfway through for refills and restrooms. Just no glass containers on the street.
Tours run rain or shine. If you show up in the rain, your guide will be there. We only cancel if conditions become dangerous, and in that case you'll receive a full refund or the option to reschedule.
Not much. It's a leisurely stroll through the French Quarter. We're talking blocks, not miles. Definitely not a hike. Comfortable shoes are still a good idea.
No. The LaLaurie Mansion is a privately owned home. Our tours stop outside and your guide tells the story from the street.
Our walking tours are about an hour and 45 minutes long. You generally cover about a mile of ground. It's an easy walk and you stop a lot to hear stories.
There are paid parking lots on Basin St. and on the corner of Conti and N. Rampart St. Prices vary depending on what's happening in the city that day. If you're staying at a French Quarter hotel, we recommend walking to the tour site.
We have a few different starting locations. After you've booked your tour, we send a confirmation email with all the details, including where your tour starts.
