Experience Details

This tour provides an in depth look at some of the most unnerving crimes in New Orleans history. Visit local watering holes frequented by some of New Orleans’ most notorious murderers and serial killers, all while a licensed tour guide provides detailed accounts of the terrifying actions of real French Quarter residents.


Perfect for true crime enthusiasts of all backgrounds. Highlights include a discussion of several French Quarter residents alleged involvement in JFKs assasination, the Ax Man’s legendary reign of terror, the murder suicide of Zack & Addy, the Upstairs Lounge Arson, as well as the infamous “Bourbon Street Bloodbath” involving an unsuspecting convention-goer in 2012.


Stop at a wide range of French Quarter bars with shockingly sordid history. Guests will have the opportunity to grab a drink at the bar where Zack tended bar pre-Katrina, an iconic brothel from the Storyville era, as well the site of the largest hate crime against the LGBTQ+ community in the 20th century.

DJ was funny and educational! We had a fantastic time! Not a typical big city ghost tour that’s boring and basic. Highly recommend! We greatly appreciated it!
