Tragedy struck when a deadly yellow fever epidemic claimed the lives of many , and their spirits are said to linger in the halls. Guests and staff report ghostly laughter, shadowy figures, and even the spirit of a lonely dancer twirling in the old ballroom. With its rich past and paranormal activity, the hotel remains one of the most haunted locations in the French Quarter.
