Old Ursuline Convent MuseumThe tour begins at the Old Ursulines Convent where families will learn about the Ursulines nuns and their critical role in rescuing the colony from certain doom. They'll hear about the caskette girls, sent here to marry the young settlers- but rumored to have brought a bit more than their wedding dresses to the colony...
-
Lalaurie MansionThe tale of this mansion enticed Nicholas Cage enough to purchase the home- and Hollywood enough to create American Horror Story based on it. Families will hear what happened here (child-friendly version!!)- as well as how the truth came to be learned. Hauntings throughout the centuries and on past tours will be shared, as well as an attempt to communicate with Madame Lalaurie...

Gallier HouseWe will teach families about the Irish immigrant / Creole family that lived here - and died here- in the 19th century. The mourning rituals of this Catholic city, during Victorian times, will be explored with haunted antiques for kids to see - and hold (if they dare!) * We do not go inside here but it is a museum definitely worth visiting!!

They'll hear about some of his well known hauntings here- as well as those experienced on past tours. Kids will get to use a ghost detecting tool to measure any presence of spirits. (Adults can go inside while we're stopped here.)
