About this activity

The most historically accurate ghost tour there is!

You do not have to believe in ghosts to take this New Orleans ghost tour. You only need to understand that they were real to someone.

The Dead Remember explores the haunted French Quarter through eyewitness testimony, historical records, newspapers, personal experiences, family stories and generations of oral tradition. Instead of presenting every legend as fact, discover where documented history ends, where folklore begins and what witnesses claimed to experience. Hear stories preserved by hotel employees, residents, writers, investigators and families, including experiences from the guide's own paranormal investigation and family history.

Along the way, explore how tragedy becomes legend, how unexplained experiences acquire names and how stories can preserve people long after records have forgotten them.

You will never be told what to believe. You will hear the testimony, examine the story and decide for yourself.
