Well, hello there, you spooky little nerdling!
Whether you're a scary story addict or a weird history worm, this page is for you. We're plunging deep into the dark, disturbing secrets of New Orleans that other tours are reluctant to touch. Perfect for macabre nerds like us with peculiar tastes, yes indeed!
We're talking gruesome, unsolved murders still shrouded in sinister mystery. Sadistic scandals that make your skin crawl. Notorious madams and their ruthless misfit gangs. All the nasty nuts, bloody bolts, and buried bodies that give this city its peculiar flavor of phantom spice.
Our phantasmagoric PhD guides have rightfully earned Spirit Empire the title of the #1-rated dark history tour in all of Louisiana.
But what brought us to the top of the scare game?
Well, grab your tattered grimoire because it's straight-up witchcraft, baby! Our chilling tales have a way of working their way under your skin and casting spells, transporting guests back through the black-hearted, bloodstained past of old New Orleans.
And why does this city have such a deadly, dangerous history? Because NOLA was founded by shifty criminals, ladies of the night, and the violently enslaved looking to revolt. The result is a modern-day Necronomicon brimming with terrifying true tales of cruelty, chaos, and the creepily unexplained—a real-life nightmare bucket of strange and sinister events forgotten by most.
Famed occultist Aleister Crowley once called New Orleans the one corner of America bizarre and dark enough to slip through the bony talons of the Grim Reaper himself. Now THAT’S a spine-tingling compliment!
And every twisted story we tell during our tours is 100% verified fact - no exaggerations or fiction here, fiends. Though ask nicely, and we may bend your ear about Gallatin Street's notorious one-armed wrecking ball brothel bouncer.
But before you join the Empire…
The hushed street fills with ghosts of the past while their voice builds each haunting scene for us. Squint and you can almost see those troubled souls crossing in the corner of your eye, still lurking where gruesome misfortunes went down. We shiver picturing the cruel Madame Lalaurie's vicious crimes against man and God from so long ago...
By the last bit, we're all wandering like spirits ourselves down these aged avenues where sinister secrets haunt every crumbling brick and bone. The guide's otherworldly vibes stick with you too. Suddenly these misty sites feel different with what we now know aches in their essence still...
…let us set the stage and let your imagination wander to what time traveling on our tour might feel like...
As dusk falls and the veil wears thin, the dazzling Art Deco archways of Armstrong Park begin to glow forbiddingly. Meet your guide underneath the glimmering gas lamps just outside the French Quarter's creaky gates, where the walls between worlds grow wispy and translucent.
The iron bells of St Louis Cathedral chime through the heavy, humid air, beckoning long-dormant spirits to awaken and take shape. Your dark descent down the rabbit hole into New Orleans' restless past creeps closer...
As your ghostly guide steps into the flickering gas lamp glow, the modern world fades, the veil thinning across centuries... Their first chilling tales spread a tapestry of forgotten tragedy, mysterious lore, and ominous fear. Imaginations answer the shadows, transporting us back through time's own haunting twilight. We can almost glimpse those lost souls from ages past crossing into our peripheries.

A fair warning
My creepy friends - we intentionally keep tour groups small and intimate to maximize scare potential. So unsurprisingly, spaces fill up fast as newcomers catch wind of our exploits. Delay booking your spot too long, and we can't guarantee a place on your trip.
Not to fear! If we're all booked up, we'll gladly recommend similar tours to ensure you still get your supernatural fix. We want everyone who desires it to experience the strange side of the Crescent City, even if it can't be through us. Just means you'll have to come back again next time!
Other Notes For Curious Little Creepsters Before Booking:
🔥 We don't claim to be the cheapest tour in NOLA, and with good reason! Our higher prices mean we can keep tour groups smaller and hire learned Ph.D. guides who know their witchcraft. Also, it keeps the obnoxiously drunk casuals far away so everyone can enjoy themselves!
⚰️ No costumes, makeup, or staged scares here, friends. Our true tales are already chilling enough! We deal in taking you past the actual haunted hotspots; no fabrication is needed. Soak in their sordid secrets and scandalous stories!
👻 Again, no guarantees you'll spy a specter or have a bonafide demonic encounter! Though past guests have spotted apparitions on our tours before! Still, any tour guaranteeing such a spine-tingling experience upfront is likely lying to loosen up your purse strings. Ghosts rarely perform on demand, being ghosts and all. But fret not! You WILL see genuine otherworldly sites, perfect for opening your psychic senses to their sinister auras and energies. Who knows what you may witness or feel amongst their dark magnetism!
🧛 What if the tour totally sucks, though? Look, friends, the entire experience takes less than 2 hours - far less time than you'd otherwise waste stumbling drunkenly through karaoke bars on Bourbon Street, honestly. So wouldn't you rather have a freaky new memorable experience in America's most haunted city to take home instead of the same old antics? We think so!
So, are you still slithering around here with us curious little nightcrawlers? Oh yes, you are! Then that means this history-meets-haunting tour is most certainly calling YOUR particular name!
Join us under the next full moon to slip through the cracks of time and space. Descend into the true stories of New Orleans' demonic storybook past filled with wrathful spirits, vengeful vampires, malicious mysteries, and secrets better buried. We'll remind you why this city feels so frightfully good, perplexingly powerful, and morbidly magnetic.
Come now, don't dally! Book your tickets right away and claim your spot in the Empire. Your guide to the intriguing underbelly of New Orleans eagerly awaits...
