Hi Ghosties, I'm Macy. And I'm Natalie. The lively sounds of jazz fill the streets day and night, and people from all over the world flock here to take in the interesting architecture, the amazing food, the unique festivals, the laid-back culture, and the incredible history. But New Orleans is also known for something much spookier.

It is known as one of the most haunted cities in the United States. There is a ghost story for every street corner, restaurant, hotel, and cemetery. And those are the stories we will be telling you today. Ah! With Mardi Gras being celebrated this week, we thought it would be very apropos to explore New Orleans and tell you all about it.

34.21 - 44.034 Maci

And this time we really mean explore because rather than just having internet exploration, we had our boots on the ground. We were boots on the ground. We were in it and we saw everything.

44.334 - 44.574 Natalie

We did.

45.234 - 66.804 Maci

A lot of things. A lot of things. We honestly could have stayed for a week and a half, and it wouldn't have been enough. I know. I needed so much more time. So in case you are interested, they have a World War II museum, and the Higgins boats that were used to navigate shallow waters when they stormed the beach of Normandy on D-Day were made and created in New Orleans.

67.285 - 74.088 Maci

And they have this massive museum, and I wanted to go see that, among other more spooky things, less nerdy things.

74.668 - 82.795 Natalie

No, there was just so much. We went on two cemetery tours. We stayed in a haunted hotel. We ate at a restaurant that's haunted.

82.835 - 83.756 Maci

Ghostly. Yeah.

84.137 - 87.62 Natalie

We did a lot, but it still felt like not nearly enough.
