Join veteran and fifth-generation ghost storyteller, Orion Couling, as he brings you a Salon des Fantômes!

Sit back and enjoy a professional multimedia presentation of New Orleans's finest ghost, vampire, and horror lore -  without leaving the comfort of your hotel or chair. Think of it as a haunt-TED talk!
