Explore New Orleans’ French Quarter at night, uncovering infamous butcher tales, sipping cocktails, and delving into true crime history with award-winning storytellers.
- Jackson Square - Behind historic Jackson Square is where you’ll meet the tour’s first butcher, The Executioner. You’ll hear the terrifying story about the former slave who worked as the Louisiana Settlement’s first paid executioner. You’ll also visit the sight of an early French Quarter fire that devoured everything in its path where you’ll meet the tour’s second butcher, The Priest.
- French Quarter - Not far from Jackson Square, you’ll visit the sight of one of the city’s most heinous and unsettling crimes where you’ll learn about the tour’s third butcher, The Cannibal.
-
Bourbon Street - Right off the city’s most raucous party street, you’ll discover one of New Orleans’ most infamous sons, someone who changed the trajectory of not just New Orleans but the entire United States for centuries to come.
It’s here you’ll meet our next butcher, The Assassin.
The tour will not be conducted on Bourbon but will stop off a side street for the destination. - Hermann-Grima House - The Hermann-Grimma House is one of the city’s most well-preserved historical mansions. Anne Rice said the house is the inspiration behind one of her most beloved characters and one of literature’s most infamous butchers.
- Old Ursuline Convent Museum - Just down the street from the Old Ursuline Convent, you’ll visit the alleged home of one of the country’s most notorious serial killers where you’ll learn about the tour’s fifth Butcher, The Axeman.
