New Orleans French Quarter Dark History, Haunts, and Laughs Tour

About this experience

Tragedy + Time = Comedy

Join a comedian (that's me) for a small group spooky and humorous tour of the French Quarter's dark history and haunted locations!

Do you like to laugh? Do you like dark history? Then this tour is for you!

Public executions, vampires, sick women, a petty ghost! We got it all!

I am a stand-up comedian/actor who's moonlighted as a tour guide since 2018.

People describe my tour as "it's like drunk history but the guide isn't drunk...that's just her personality!"

There will be a bathroom/bar break half way through.

I keep my tour small with no more than ten guests. I am not a sheep herder. Because of the small group size, gratuities are always appreciated.

So book the tour and allow the spirits and I entertain you!

*Age requirements: 18+ but if you have a cool kid who is tagging along that loves the macabre, send me a message and we can figure out if the tour will be okay for them.

*The tour happens rain or shine.
