The LaLaurie Mansion, New Orleans, Louisiana |
Well known for her sybaritic parties, Madame Marie Delphine LaLaurie was a Louisiana socialite in the early 19th century. Long may the parties have continued, were it not for the outbreak of a fire at her mansion: in the course of investigating it, the bodies of several victims of mutilation were discovered in her attic.
LaLaurie fled the country, but the anguished screams of her victims are said to still be heard. Now privately owned, you can only visit the mansion from the outside, so keep your ears pricked up.
