Welcome to Voodoo City, a podcast rooted firmly in the darker side of New Orleans

As relentless and inescapable as the river that flows past it, a decidedly dark history courses through the streets of New Orleans, a city haunted by 300 years of accumulated legends and myths. Some of it is rooted in fact. Some is rooted in folklore. All of it is fascinating. Welcome to Voodoo City.
Over eight episodes, we’ll explore the people, the events and the special brand of magic that still swirl about this 300-year-old city. Much of what we’ll share is documentable fact. Some of it is more rooted in myth and folklore. Where we can, we’ll try to separate the two. And in those many cases in which verifiable answers and reasonable explanations are elusive we’ll leave it up to you to decide what’s really going on down here in Voodoo City.
Voodoo City is available everywhere you get your podcasts and on NOLA.com/voodoocity.
