New Orleans Halloween

New Orleans is a city that embraces the macabre. Not just on Halloween, but all year long. Our cemeteries are tourists attractions. Any day (or night) of the week, you can take a haunted history tour or a ghost tour or a vampire tour. Some of the properties for sale even feature “Haunted” or “Not Haunted” signs along with the other information.

On any given day, you can find people in costume – people in tutus, vampire costumes and Mardi Gras Indians are common sights.
