Itinerary
Your local guide will share dark, mysterious stories and legends about these French Quarter haunts, some of which involve voodoo, witchcraft, ghosts and vampires!
Louis Dufilho, America’s First Licensed Pharmacist, opened what is known as the Pharmacy Museum in 1816. Now, this former apothecary shop hosts an assortment of medical exhibits from the past for your viewing pleasure.
The beautiful heart of the French Quarter
Find out about the legend of the Casket Girls and how they were thought to be the first North American Vampires.
As you explore the French Quarter you will learn about the horrifying tales of slaves at the LaLaurie House and learn about various other ghostly and ghastly characters of New Orleans's sordid past.
Visit one of New Orleans' oldest structures, and some of the former resident souls. Formerly the site of infamous Jean Lafitte’s illicit privateer operation, it's one of the most haunted buildings in the French Quarter.
Since the 1990s, Voodoo Authentica has been crafting handmade voodoo dolls, gris-gris bags and more from Dumaine Street in the French Quarter. This is just another legendary location that visitors are pointed towards during a Witches Brew Tours voodoo tour.

The tour guide Julia was very informative and made the experience so memorable. The sights and content were very interesting and fun!
We thoroughly enjoyed our evening tour with Kamille (with a K, as she cheerfully introduced herself!). Kamille is a wonderful storyteller who skillfully blended the darker, more macabre tales of New Orleans with fascinating historical details, local legends, and accounts of paranormal sightings. Her knowledge of the city’s history, folklore, and mysterious past made the experience both entertaining and informative. Our group was quite large, but Kamille handled everyone beautifully. She kept the tour engaging and interactive, welcomed questions, and answered them thoughtfully and knowledgeably. She was personable, friendly, and clearly enjoyed sharing her stories. Whether you’re interested in ghosts, vampires, voodoo, or simply the colorful and sometimes chilling history of New Orleans, this tour offers a little something for everyone. We had a lovely time and would happily recommend Kamille to anyone looking for an entertaining and memorable evening in the French Quarter!
Yea! Tony was great! 😊 such a great tour!
Aari was a great guide! An amazing storyteller. We loved hearing the spooky stories of New Orleans with Aari. There was a break during the tour to get a drink which was refreshing. Aari also had recommendations of where to go in New Orleans after the tour which was helpful. If you do this tour, ask for Aari!
Logan was a great guide and very knowledgable about the Quarter and New Orleans
Coby was a really fun tour guide and I highly recommend this tour. It was lots of fun, a little scary, but mostly very informarive.
This tour was so fun and knowledgeable, Juju was an amazing tour guide and she was so insightful. The spooky bat breaks make it even better!
This was an amazing tour. Even though we weren’t extremely into voodoo, vampires etc this was such a fun and interesting tour. There were lots of great facts on the history of New Orleans! Chris was a fantastic tour guide with amazing story telling! He made the tour, and highly recommend this. It was a highlight of our trip.
Thoroughly enjoyed the walking tour. Graham was so knowledgeable, full of fun facts, puns and was super patient with everyone. Great recommendation for the Ghostbuster and took us to some beautifully historic locations on our walk. I have been sharing lots of facts that I learnt on our walk with friends and family back home, they’re keen to come to New Orleans and experience this all for themselves. Highly recommend! Thank you Graham!
Chris was a great host! Very personable, knowledgeable and fun!
Fun way to see the French Quarter. Not spooky. Wear comfortable walking shoes. Tour ends in a different place from where it starts.
Fun and informative! Our guide Jody was a hoot and made the tour feel both whimsical and scary!! Good times!!!
Lisa was a great tour guide. Very knowledgeable! Great way to hear about the history of the city!
This was a great tour in a history-rich area of the city. Our tour guide, Hannah Kate, was knowledgeable and friendly. She is a fantastic story teller and was able to pull the tour together with the common threads through her stories. Wear good shoes - the only caution I would have is it watch where you walk - the old streets are uneven in places so you don't want to trip. That absolutely has no impact on the quality of the tour or the tour guide - just a heads up.
Chris was our tour guide and he was amazing! He was funny and incredibly knowledgeable. The tour was fun, spooky and my mom and I learned a lot about the city! Highly recommend going on the voodoo, vampire ghost tour!
Spooky Rob was a phenomenal tour guide! He was very informative and interactive. He radiates love for new orleans and it's history.
Catie was fantastic! The tour walked at a great pace and kept the group engaged the whole time. We absolutely loved her stories and passion for New Orleans’s history! Highly recommend the daytime tour as it was easy to see the architecture.
Our tour guide Lacey was very informative. She was great to talk to and I am very happy with what I learned on the tour. I would recommend it.
Hannah Kate did a fantastic job shedding light on the lore of New Orleans!
Hanna Kate was amazing. The tour was fum
Loved this tour! Andi was absolutely awesome and my son enjoyed the whole experience. The information shared was very .... Detailed. Loved it! New Orleans, Andi and Viator tours, thank you all so much! Beautiful city, beautiful people! My son & I definitely found our smiles! Thank you thank you!
We had a great time. Our guide was very knowledgeable.
My husband and I took the 8 p.m. walking tour with Witches Brew on Sunday evening and really enjoyed it. It lasted roughly two hours, and our guide, Andy, was friendly, personable, and very knowledgeable. She shared so much about New Orleans’ history and the events behind the stories. We appreciated how she explained everything and made it interesting and easy to follow. We walked away having learned a lot about the city. We’re planning to return to New Orleans next year and would definitely book another tour with them. The vampire tour sounds especially interesting! Thank you, Andy, for a great evening. Do this tour as early in your trip as you can because it will help you find places to go!
I booked the Adults-Only Ghost, Voodoo and Vampire Tour. On the night of the tour, we met at the designated location, where over 100 people were waiting for their tours. Considering how many people had booked the same time slot, the company was very well organized. We were sorted into our group and on our way within 15 minutes of arriving. Our tour guide, Morgan, was amazing! She was not only incredibly knowledgeable but also entertaining. You couldn't help but be engaged as she told the stories behind each location we visited. She was also very attentive to everyone's safety from beginning to end. She watched for cars, made sure everyone was accounted for, and at the end asked if anyone needed directions or wanted to be walked somewhere they felt safe. If I do another tour, I hope I get Morgan again!
Our tour guide Logan was the absolute best! He was both very entertaining and knowledgeable! Hands down one of the best tour guides I’ve had in New Orleans. Highly recommend!
I think it might’ve been a better experience on a not as busy weekend as Halloween, but our group was large, so it was difficult to get close enough to the tour guide to hear everything she was saying because of being so close to other to our groups and just general noise all around us
Great tour! We had a lot of fun. Our tour guide Lacey did a great job. Well detailed stories, questions answered and enough time for pictures. Really enjoyed it.
Great guide with JuJu! Fun to learn history of the city and hear the stories of the past! Easy walk thru town.
Nice tour. Very informative. The host obviously knew the area well and enjoyed what she was doing the whole time.
Our tour guide was super fun and engaging. Juju told us all about Nola history and made the experience fun and enjoyable! I highly recommend this tour!
Dani was a great guide ! She was very knowledgeable about the city and also very respectful of the city at the same time . I appreciated that she made sure that the discussion was tailored to the kids that were in our group as well, very respectful.
Morgan was excellent, her costume, the personality, and delivery. It was busy, but she projected well and gave a very smooth and fluid tour.
Our guide was great and very informative
Andi had a great personality and animated story teller. Enjoyed the tour!
Loved this tour! Guide was great!
Such a great experience! I would do it again in a heartbeat! Spooky Rob was the best!
This was such a fun way to experience the city’s rich and unique culture. I had such a great time with my momma. Lisa was articulate and ensured that everyone was included. She recommended some great spots for our visit too!!
Took another tour with Chris because he was so fun to listen to! This tour was on Halloween and I loved hearing the spooky history while everyone was dressed in costumes (Chris included). So fun and worth it - would totally come back to take a tour with Chris again!
Tour guide was awesome, very knowledgeable about the history and stories about the haunted areas. We had lots of rain unfortunately, but a great tour. Unfortunately you don't get to go into the building.
We loved Chris as our guide! We requested him since we enjoyed his cemetery tour and we had an even greater time with him during the ghost tour. He told us so many stories and jokes and we all had such a good time. We would definitely strongly recommend him to anyone that’s interested in taking the tour!
Our story teller "the Nun" WAS AMAZING. we were blown away. We went on Halloween and had so much fun. Thank you for such a unforgettable memory.
We went with Tony & he is 10 out of 10. Unlike a different tour, with a different company we did, Tony kept an easy pace, gave everyone a 15 minute break (which was very much needed); Tony made sure that the tour group was together (also unlike the other tour group) & even in the busiest areas, you could easily spot Tony by his umbrella. He has a tone that kept your attention and was extremely informative. Hands down the best tour guide we've had.
They should know that you don’t actually go into any of the places described or talked about. There are so many tours going on at the same time that they run in to each other.
This was fun and the info and stories were great! It was fun to do on Halloween night, made it more interesting!
Graham was our tour guide and he was very knowledgeable, funny, and kind. I highly recommend this tour and try to get him if possible
Jodi out your guide for the vip tour Halloween night was excellent. She had all the right answers.
Logan was great! Highly recommend
I expected scarier story telling. Nothing on Vampires, maybe I got the wrong tour. The tour guide was very nice.
Lacey was wonderful and so full of history.
