A humid evening presses against the ironwork balconies of the French Quarter as the group gathers under the glow of a street lamp. The guide—clipboard, voice trained to pull facts from folklore—holds up a sign for The Haunted Crawl and a small vial of something amber for the night’s first toast. Laughter drifts from Bourbon Street while a deeper sound threads through the alleys: the city’s old stories waiting to be told.
