Top New Orleans Half-day Tours - page 6

Some places are haunted by stories. Others seem to remember what happened there. This Halloween weekend, when the last visitors leave and darkness settles over Destrehan Plantation, you’ll be invited to enter one of Louisiana’s most historic properties for an after-hours paranormal investigation. Once the doors close and the plantation grows silent, the investigation begins. Walk through centuries-old spaces in near darkness. Use paranormal investigation equipment. Call out into empty rooms. Listen for footsteps, voices, knocks, and movements that shouldn’t be there. And if something answers… Will you have the courage to answer back? No haunted-house actors. No staged scares. Just darkness. History. Investigation. And the possibility that you aren’t investigating alone. The question isn’t whether you believe in ghosts. It’s what you’ll believe when you leave.
