While places such as Salem, MA, or Sleepy Hollow, NY, are considered the spookiest towns in America, New Orleans, LA, has more ghost stories than anywhere else in the nation! With a history spanning centuries, and a melting pot of differing cultures, practically every other location in the Big Easy has a ghost story attached to it. From St. Louis Cathedral's monks and priests of the colonial period, to the tortured souls of the LaLaurie Mansion and the Sultan's Palace, to notorious pirates and the Voodoo queen herself, this program will discuss some of the most legendary and most chilling ghosts of New Orleans!
