From New Orleans haunted tours to spine-chilling\u00a0places in the\u00a0Caribbean!<\/strong><\/p>\n

Greetings, intrepid traveler! Have you had your fill of the ordinary? Are you, perhaps, seeking adventures a bit more eerie? If you dared to enter this article, we\u2019re here to clue you in on some haunted tourist attractions that are bound to frighten and enthrall.<\/p>\n

That\u2019s right! From haunted places in New Orleans<\/a> to Caribbean<\/a> forts full of haunted history, each realm we\u2019re visiting has a chilling story to tell.<\/p>\n

\"Old
Will you spot Blackbeard and his crew along the old forts of Nassau?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Bahamas<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Nassau<\/a> is a sunny paradise fit for any postcard\u2026 but if you\u2019re looking for something more eerie, you don\u2019t have to travel far.<\/p>\n

Spirits may not be only in the glasses here, it turns out. While sipping cocktails and going on guided tours at John Watling\u2019s Distillery, visitors claim to have seen apparitions peeking through the old corridors.<\/p>\n

The historic forts of Nassau are also perfect for a few thrills and chills. Explore the old Fort Fincastle, Fort Charlotte, and Fort Montagu and see if you feel anything paranormal\u2026 It’s said that the ghost of the most famous pirate of the Caribbean\u2013Blackbeard<\/em>\u2013can be heard wailing through the cavernous dungeons!<\/p>\n

\"French
From ghost tours to s\u00e9ances, New Orleans is one spooky location.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

New Orleans<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

The Birthplace of Jazz, The Paris of the South, and, some claim, America\u2019s most haunted city. Dare to travel to New Orleans?<\/p>\n

The French Quarter is famous for its vibrant nightlife\u2026 for both the living and<\/i> the dead. As you tour through this historic district, snacking on Cafe du Monde beignets and listening to the syncopated sounds of jazz roll through the streets, make a stop at the Old Absinthe House.<\/p>\n

The 200-year-old bar is allegedly haunted by famous customers like General Andrew Jackson. So pull up a chair at this local haunt and you may find yourself with a few surprise<\/i> guests.<\/p>\n

You can also stop by the Big Easy\u2019s St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, where the Creole voodoo queen Marie Laveau is buried. Visitors claim they\u2019ve seen her and the ghosts of Civil War soldiers around the cemetery.<\/p>\n

\"Dimly
Legends say Victorian ghosts haunt the old cobblestone streets of Boston.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

New England<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Home to the Salem witch trials and the setting for films like The Conjuring,<\/em> it\u2019s no surprise that New England can be wicked creepy.<\/p>\n

Boston<\/a> can surely live up to the region\u2019s spooky reputation. Along with exploring America\u2019s history through centuries-old buildings like the Old State House<\/a>, the city\u2019s haunted history tours will take you through 400-year-old burial grounds, the Emerson Cutler Majestic Theater, and Fort Warren. All of which are allegedly filled with paranormal activity!<\/p>\n

You can also head to Newport, Rhode Island, to tour the gothic halls of Belcourt Castle. Said to have been built over an old graveyard, Belcourt is said to house otherworldly entities. In fact, a former resident wrote about all of their ghostly experiences in this opulent 60-room mansion. But, no visitors have been harmed by spirits of the other side\u2026 yet<\/i>.<\/p>\n

\"St.
Records of the Chase Vault’s “moving coffins” date as far back as the early 1800s!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Barbados<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

When you think of Barbados, you\u2019re probably conjuring up images of crystal-clear waters and lively music. But, there\u2019s a spooky side to the island, if you\u2019re brave enough to tread beyond the beach.<\/p>\n

Visit the Christ Church Cemetery and its mysterious Chase Crypt, if you dare. The resting place of wealthy landowner Colonel Thomas Chase and his daughters, the Crypt has been open and investigated several times since 1812. And each time, the coffins were found to be moved from their original locations around the crypt. The scariest part? There were no footprints or any signs of disturbances\u2026<\/p>\n

But the chills don\u2019t stop on-land. Dive among Bermuda\u2019s colorful reefs and you\u2019ll find an array of shipwrecks like the Berwyn<\/a>. Who knows, maybe you\u2019ll see a ghostly crewmember among the depths.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"From New Orleans haunted tours to spine-chilling\u00a0places in the\u00a0Caribbean!
