Southern Breeze 2007 Fall Issue - (Page 47) (Opposite) Darkness falls on the French Quarter and brings out the Anne Rice and many vampire novelists often set their stories in the shadows of St. Louis Cathedral and the French Quarter. The Haunted History Vampire Tour tells a bloodthirsty tale of two brothers—John and Wayne Carter—who in the early 20th century kept a generous supply of warm blood in their home. One of their victims was a young girl who staggered into the police station terrified from a heinous act in a French Quarter home where the brothers tied her up and slit her wrists, poured the blood into a cup and drank it, bandaged the wound, and repeated the feast for three nights. The police entered the home and in one room found four victims—three alive and a nine-year-old dead—while in another room lay 17 dead bodies…all drained of blood. But the horror doesn’t stop there. Vampire legend says that if a human survives seven feedings then they too will enter the land of the undead. Of the four surviving victims, the little girl who was fed upon for three days suffered no ill effects, another woman went to a mental hospital for the rest of her life, a 14-year-old boy was burned alive when his father set fire to their home, and an adult man went on to murder 33 people, drinking their blood and dissolving their bodies in acid. vampires, ghosts and tourists led by guides such as Sidney Smith of Haunted History Tours (left and above). St. Roch’s Chapel is the most unusual in the city, with hundreds of mementos from those who believe prayers to St. Roch cured them adorning the walls: braces, crutches and replicas of body parts (bottom).
