Also to all my NO brehs out there. The channel Dark Waters tells some interesting horror stories from yall hoods.
New Orleans is one of the most haunted cities in the United States. For many reasons.
History lesson: Hauntings abound in this deeply mystical city. A violent and often tragic past—including a slave market larger than any other in the country, the massive fires of 1788 and 1794, and ferocious epidemics of yellow fever—fuels the ghost lore. Inexplicable orbs and “screams in the dead of night” have been reported from current-day Jackson Square, says Pinheiro. Today, it is a French Quarter landmark, facing the Mississippi and surrounded by the St. Louis Cathedral and a complex of shops, galleries, and high-end apartments. But during the 18th century and into the first half of the 19th century, it was a public square and the site of atrocious executions of criminals and slaves. The sounds of anguish, it’s said, are either coming from those hung in the gallows, or the guilt-torn clergy in the nearby cathedral who refused to save them.
