COMING SOON!!!
Boo, babes—
It’s me again, Karen Brem, Marketing Director for the Historic Mardi Gras Inn, here to remind you that New Orleans doesn’t just celebrate Halloween—we practically invented it. And this year, the adult-only haunted ghost tours through the French Quarter are back, darker, sassier, and more deliciously boozy than ever.
🦇 Why These Ghost Tours Are Not For Kids (Or the Faint of Heart)
Forget “pumpkin spice” and hayrides—these tours are strictly 21+ spine-tinglers where the spirits are poured as freely as the ghost stories. Your guide? Equal parts historian, bartender, and bad influence, leading you through the French Quarter’s cobblestone labyrinth. Every stop comes with a tale soaked in scandal—brothels, murders, pirates, voodoo queens—and a refill for your drink. 🍸👻
These are no PG-13, sanitized tours. Nope. These are after-dark, adults-only journeys where the city’s haunted past meets your present buzz. You’ll stumble past candlelit courtyards where ghosts are said to roam, hear stories that make your skin crawl, and laugh so hard you’ll spill your drink. Think of it as a creepy cocktail hour with the undead.
🍹 Booze + History = Perfection
Here’s the tea (and by tea, I mean tequila): New Orleans is built on centuries of haunted history. Corpses in crypts. Pirates who won’t stay buried. Voodoo rituals whispered at midnight. And every single ghost tour finds a way to weave in the juiciest parts of that history with the best adult perks—aka strong cocktails.
Some tours will have you sipping absinthe where brothel girls once scandalized society. Others will drag you through haunted bars, letting you toast with the same ghosts who allegedly never checked out. Either way, it’s spooky education with a splash of intoxication. 🥂📚👻
🎭 Costumes Required, Darling
This isn’t just about walking tours—it’s about strutting tours. Don your fiercest, wildest, creepiest getup and own those cobblestones. Drag vampires, glitter ghouls, leather-clad werewolves—whatever makes you scream, “I’m fabulous and possibly cursed.” The Quarter eats it up. 🦇✨
🏨 Why Stay With Us?
Because when you’ve drained your last cocktail with the ghosts of Bourbon Street, you’ll need a spot to collapse in style. The Historic Mardi Gras Inn is now LGBTQ+ owned and operated 🏳️🌈✨ and we’ve just finished a full glow-up across the property. We offer only what matters: clean, affordable accommodations and a warm, welcoming staff that will make your haunted weekend amazing.
Oh, and did I mention? We’re one block off the French Quarter and just a two-minute walk to the streetcar stop. That means easy access to the tours, the bars, the clubs, and every unholy thing in between. 🚋👠
