Overview

Escape into the darkness with your licensed guide on an air-conditioned bus to some of the most haunted locations in New Orleans outside of the French Quarter. Cross one of the most notorious streets in America as we make our way down scenic Esplanade Avenue telling tales of tragedy, trauma, and mystery which has made us the most haunted city in America. All locations are alive with paranormal activity. Visit real cemeteries at night! Bring your camera, you won't want to miss this! We have offered this tour for over 4 years now and are amazed by what our guests experience. People capture full-bodies apparitions not only on photographs but see them with the naked eye. People have heard whispers in their ears, felt the touch of someone brushing their cheek or stroking their hair, and sometimes even have a ghost photo bomb their pictures! Keep an open mind - you never know what might happen on this very haunted tour.

Your introduction to haunted burial ground begin at the gates of this cemetery built in the 1800s during the yellow fever epidemics as the city ran out of room to bury its dead.

Fantastic Cemetery Bus Tour in NOLA!

Winter cemetery tour

Published on Jan, 2025

We had the most unforgettable experience on the Winter Cemetery Ghost Bus Tour in New Orleans! From start to finish, it was a perfect mix of eerie history, spooky tales, and the rich cultural atmosphere of the city. Our guide Christian was incredibly knowledgeable, sharing fascinating stories about the city's famous cemeteries, voodoo, and the spirits said to haunt the streets. The bus ride itself was comfortable and cozy, offering great views of the historic neighborhoods we passed through. Huge shoutout to our driver, Nick! But the highlight was definitely the visits to the cemeteries. There's something extra chilling about exploring these hauntingly beautiful places at night, with the soft glow of streetlights casting shadows on the tombs. It really gave the whole experience an otherworldly feel. The ghost stories were spooky without being over-the-top, just the right balance of mystery and suspense. I also appreciated how the tour included a mix of both famous and lesser-known sites, offering a unique perspective on the city’s supernatural lore. Whether you’re a history buff, a paranormal enthusiast, or just looking for something a bit different to do in New Orleans, I highly recommend this tour. It’s a fun, chilling, and immersive way to experience the haunted heart of the city. Would definitely do it again!

Great NOLA Dead of Night Ghosts and Cemetery Bus Tour!

Published on Jan, 2025

This 2 hour tour was great. Our guide, Christian, was very knowledgeable, engaging and fun. His is native to Louisiana ancestors going back 3+ generations. He really knows his history and lore. Nick, the bus driver, was good too. I went with some local friends who said this was the best tour of all they have been on with other visitors. I definitely recommend this tour, especially if Christian is the guide.
