Because of our history with the spirits of New Orleans, the Maison de Ville is once again partnering with Christopher Moon of Haunted Times Magazine on February 22 and 23, 2008, to host special classes of Ghost Hunter University.

Ghost Hunting 101 for beginners presented on Friday will include an intro to the theory behind the trade as well as a lesson in the use of ghost hunting equipment. A more advanced Ghost Hunting 102 on Saturday will involve more comprehensive and technical lessons.

Each class includes a gourmet dinner at the Bistro at the Maison de Ville as well as a ghost hunt through the famed hotel's haunted spots. With your newly formed knowledge of the paranormal and expert ghost hunting techniques, you may even catch our ghoulish Civil War veteran, who occasionally enjoys scaring the hotel's staff.
