Haunted History Tours is New
Orleans' oldest, largest, and most renowned walking tour
company. Established in 1994, Haunted History Tours was the first to
produce ground-breaking research, explore paranormal phenomena and reveal
unprecedented material on the mysterious and sinister aspects of New
Orleans.
In New Orleans, tales of witches were an integral part of local folklore.
Among the Cajuns, it was believed that when an evil witch died, she might
return as a chauchemar or nightmare witch. This ghostly creature would
attack victims in their bed as they slept. The creature would pin the
victim down, causing temporary paralysis. You can't scream, you can't
move. Once she has you, she'll ride you like a horse. Many a victim has
awakened from griping nightmares to find actual whip marks on their body
as evidence of the attack! In other parts of the country, as well as in
Europe this is referred to as an attack of the Old Hag. Today we attribute
this sort of phenomena to psychic vampirism rather than witchcraft.
Often considered the pioneers of the walking tour industry, Haunted
History tours has appeared on more television programs and interviewed by
more print media than any other tour company in New Orleans.
Further,
Haunted History Tours is the only tour company to produce and publish its
own book on haunted locations in New Orleans and its surrounding areas.
They have been featured on A&E, Travel Channel, Discovery Channel, History
Channel, MTV, ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, Sci Fi, AMC and even ESPN!
