Along the way, you’ll encounter tales of tragic fires, deadly duels, cursed mansions, haunted hotels, and spirits that never left. Hear the real story of the LaLaurie Mansion, the mystery of the Sultan’s Palace, the lingering energy at Muriel’s Restaurant, and the eerie legends tied to Pirate’s Alley and the Ursuline Convent.
