I work hard and I do not appreciate anyone saying that I scam people. Since 2014 I have ran a successful reputable business. I’m not sure if you are a competitor or what’s happening here with this review. This group had paranormal equipment to use during the tour which is included with the groups since it’s a GHOST tour. This tour group started at one of the most known haunted bars along with any other locations the tour went to the most haunted home in the city (the LaLaurie Mansion) a building that was once a morgue and so on…. If that isn’t regarding ghosts idk what is. Your group was marked as walking off from our group and not returning so your review isn’t accurate since you didn’t even attend the entire tour. As far as the photos you mentioned… these photos were taken over the years during this tour and added over time as they were taken by our guides and by our guests. Not paranormal?? The meeting location is Lafittes Blacksmith Shop Bar - The Ghosts of Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop When it comes to the ghosts and hauntings at Lafitte’s it comes as no surprise that the ghost most often associated with this building is the ghost of Jean Lafitte himself. Interestingly, he appears as a full bodied apparition. Full bodied apparitions are not as common as movies would make them out to be. Most of the time, ghosts are often seen as a mist, sometimes even a shadow person. A full bodied apparition would appear no different to you than a living person…except in this case our ghost is dressed in sailor’s gear. The ghost of Jean Lafitte has never interacted with anyone. He has never said a word to anyone. He simply stands in the dark corners, staring at people until he is noticed, at which time his ghost disappears into the shadows. Now, this hasn’t happened just one of two times. It seems to be a fairly common occurrence here at the Blacksmith Shop. He is always seen on the first floor, most of the time near the fireplace that is inside. So, if you’re going to be in New Orleans for another night, maybe you’ll want to come hang out for a chance encounter with Mr. Lafitte himself. Even if you don’t have a run in with the most famous ghost which haunts here, the atmosphere is great. You’ll notice that the entire place is light with candles…there is no electricity in most of the building… On the second floor of Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop there seems to be another ghost which calls the bar home. Nobody knows who this ghost is, we only know that it is the ghost of a woman. It could have been someone who lived here. Rumor has it that there was a woman who lived here in the 1890s who killed herself upstairs. We cannot find any verifiable sources on this, but it is entirely possible. This ghost is a little more mysterious. She has only shown herself to people on a handful of occasions. However, she is very talkative. Imagine sitting in one of the rooms upstairs, by yourself, late at night..and hearing a woman whisper your name into your ear. Yeah, if that doesn’t send shivers up your spine not much will. But that is what she likes to do. She probably just wants to let you know she is there, that she knows who you are…not realizing that by doing so she has probably made a few people have a panic attack! Now, aside from ghosts, there is another phenomenon which is often associated with Lafitte’s Blacksmith Shop. Who has ever heard of phantom red eyes? Well, we have something here which is often seen that has bright red eyes. There is never a body, never a voice….just piercing red eyes. They are always seen in the dark corners of Lafitte’s. As soon as you make eye contact with it, the eyes will freeze on you, before fading into nothing. Ghosts don’t have red eyes. People have an unfortunate habit of lumping everything paranormal into the category of ā€˜ghost’. This isn’t the case. Red eyes are a phenomenon reserved for demonic hauntings. Another location this tour goes to - LaLaurie Mansion Victims of Madame Delphine LaLaurie at the LaLaurie Mansion Countless New Orleans ghost historians and tour guides say that the LaLaurie Mansion is one of the city’s most spirited places. Rumors are still swirling around Madame Delphine LaLaurie and the alleged crimes carried out in the backroom of her 19th century French Quarter palace. (Fans of American Horror Story may be familiar with the Creole figure, who was played by Kathy Bates in the show’s third season.) Once host to endless elegant parties, the LaLaurie Mansion is now home to countless ghosts who supposedly met their end at the hands of the alleged socialite serial killer. Take just about any New Orleans tour, and you’re likely to hear these harrowing tales as you walk by (you can’t go inside) as this is private home. This is simply details on TWO of the many locations this group went to that is absolutely paranormal. We gave the tour sorry you felt as though it wasn’t up to your standards or what you thought it should be. I know that you were mad because you wanted to go inside of a private home. The tour listing makes it clear we do not go into privately owned locations… that would be breaking and entering šŸ¤¦šŸ¼ā€ā™€ļø
