About this book

New Orleans is home to numerous ghost stories and haunted locations. The city's cemeteries are built above ground and are known as Cities of the Dead, attracting thousands of visitors annually who come to learn about the ghosts and spirits said to inhabit them. One notable tale involves Marie Laveau, the Voodoo Queen of New Orleans, whose ghost was reportedly seen dancing on a tomb with a snake wrapped around her. These stories, drawn from the city's history, offer accounts of paranormal activity throughout New Orleans.
