One day I'm gonna die, and I'm gonna take all of you with me, oracle Julie Brown would sing from her front porch.
And in 1915, on the day of her funeral in Frenier, Louisiana, it happened.
A hurricane swept hundreds of residents to their deaths in the Manchac Swamp near Lake Pontchartrain's western shore.
See the mass graves by torchlight on a night-time swamp tour through the cypress trees.
Hear stories of the spirits sighted, and see the red eyes of crocodiles as you float into the moss-draped darkness.
Manchac Swamp, located in the U.S. state of Louisiana, near the city of New Orleans, is also known as swamp of the ghosts.

Louisiana Swamp Tour part 1
Take a bayou tour of the famous Honey Island Swamp. You’ll glide through gator territory on a small, flat-bottomed boat and hear all about the swamp and its natural inhabitants from our local, expert captains. We offer pickup services from many French Quarter hotels and visitor centers for your comfort and convenience.
We find the best experts in the field to give you an authentic tour of one of America’s most unique ecosystems. Many of our captains have lived on the water for most of their lives and have earned field degrees to give you the best experience possible.
Cajun Encounters is a proud member of the Louisiana Nature Conservancy, and we believe that we have a responsibility to protect the environment around us. We’re dedicated to providing an intimate look at the swamp without impacting the environment or the many diverse species that live there.
On every tour, you’ll have the chance to see alligators, wild boar, raccoons, snakes, owls, egrets, and more – all in their natural habitat, and just a few feet from your boat!

New Orleans (Part 1) Jan 25-27, 2018 | Haunted History, Plantations, and Swamps
Norelle and I went to the Big Easy last month for a long weekend. This is just part one. On the last day we happened on the band 4th River Music Collective, playing on the street. I got a solid 4 minutes of their music and decided to put it on top of the first few days of film that I got.
After we got to our AirBnB, which was a great setup located in the historic Western Union Telegraph building, we started out by going straight to Bourbon Street by about 8pm.
We then went straight to the Haunted History walking tour, which took us around the French Quarter to major sites including Lalaurie Mansion aka Madame Lalaurie’s House of Horrors, which was featured in American Horror story... Also it turns out Nick Cage used to own it for a while, which is a little messed up.
The next day we walked to the waterfront, the pickup point for our Plantation and Swamp Tour.
The tour begins with the Destrehan Plantation, established in 1787, the oldest documented French Colonial style house in the lower Mississippi Valley. After that we drove about another 45 minutes to the Cajun Pride Swamp Tours, where we got to see/hold stakes and alligators.
The next day we took the trolly to the Garden District, where we got caught in a huge Thunderstorm, but that will be documented in part 2.
Enjoy!

Upon returning from our trip to Guatemala we continued to drive around the United States crossing off several of the states in the South, including Louisiana. It was a pretty wet and cold day, not the best time for a swamp tour, but we went anyway!
Despite the cold and overcast skies we did see several gators and other wildlife. Cajun Pride Swamp Tours does a great job of telling you all about the swamp and making it a fun and memorable time (this video is not sponsored).
The swamp is a very interesting environment and certainly one we wouldn't mind exploring some more! Hopefully next time it will be a little bit more sunny!
