Halloween Ghost Hunt in New Orleans with Bloody Mary's Tours | Events | Museum

New Orleans is a city where history seeps from every brick and shadows flicker down every alley. It’s a place where the past feels present, and where stories of the supernatural are as real as the humid air. At the heart of this spectral landscape, Bloody Mary’s Tours offers an exclusive paranormal event this October 18: the Up All Night Paranormal Halloween Event VIP Ghost Hunters +. This after-hours ghost hunt lockdown takes you deep into some of New Orleans’ most haunted sites, including the infamous Bloody Mary’s Haunted Museum.

Led by celebrated ghost hunters Christopher Moon and Dee Garcia, both skilled psychic mediums and investigators, the experience begins with an intensive “Ghost Hunting 101” class. Here, guests get hands-on training with paranormal investigation techniques—from EVP recorders to spirit boxes and automatic writing—equipping them to engage with the unseen during the live investigation.

The event unfolds inside the 200-year-old double Creole cottage that houses the museum and its storied history, including the notorious Zack and Addie murder case. Over several hours, participants rotate through different haunted buildings and outdoor spaces, conducting investigations and applying old-school and cutting-edge paranormal methods. The energy is immersive, with opportunities to connect, clear, and understand restless spirits. Midnight snacks and non-alcoholic refreshments help keep energy up during the vigil that can extend past 1 a.m.

Bloody Mary’s Tours stands out in New Orleans’ rich landscape of cultural and supernatural tourism by blending education, interactive tech, and hands-on experience in a deeply local context. This isn’t a simple ghost walk, but a participatory paranormal vigil in an authentic haunted homestead. For those who want to push their curiosity beyond typical tourist stops, this event is a rare chance to join an ongoing nine-year investigation where history, mystery, and myth come alive together.
