Overview

Why this night is worth your time

Some of New Orleans' most haunted locations are bars. Convenient. Join our Haunted Pub Crawl through the French Quarter's most notoriously ghost-laden drinking establishments -- from a bar that has served drinks since before the Civil War to a basement speakeasy where something apparently refuses to leave. Four stops. Stories included. Regrets optional.

In New Orleans, a pub crawl works best when the drinks are attached to a story. This is the lane for travelers who want the evening to move, but still want a sense of place: old blocks, bar counters, local lore, and the feeling that each stop belongs to a bigger night.

Go in expecting a social rhythm rather than a museum lecture. The best version of this experience gives your group momentum, a reason to keep walking, and enough after-dark texture to make the night feel rooted in the city instead of interchangeable with any bar crawl anywhere.

Places & context

Places this tour is built around

Skim this like a pre-tour cheat sheet: the places, streets, bars, views, or landmarks that give the night its flavor. The live listing still has the final route, access, and meeting details.

  • Jackson Square

    Floodlit cathedral spires rise over the square where fortune-tellers lay their cards; the statue of Jackson wheels above the gathering dark.

  • Pirates Alley

    A narrow flagstone passage beside the cathedral, all shadow and lamplight; smugglers, absinthe, and ghost stories cling to its damp walls.

  • LaLaurie Mansion

    The Quarter's most infamous address, where a fire in 1834 exposed Madame LaLaurie's horrors; drinkers hush as they pass its gate.

  • Bourbon Street

    Neon, brass, and the roar of a thousand open doors; Bourbon after dark is a riot of light with a darker history bleeding through.

  • Old Ursuline Convent Museum

    The Quarter's oldest building, third-floor shutters sealed against the 'casket girls' vampire legend; pale and watchful over the street.

  • Lafitte's Blacksmith Shop Bar

    Candlelight only inside this crumbling 1720s cottage, among America's oldest bars, its corners named for the pirate who supposedly ran it.
