Rose Sinister—Best Tour Guide EVER!!! - Rose Sinister was our tour guide. I am a New Orleans local and have taken this tour a dozen times over the last 30ish years. It is one of my favorite things to bring friends and family to do in New Orleans. Rose was by far the best tour guide I have ever had on any tour in any city. I have been on similar tours all over the world. She didn’t just tell us the stories I have heard so many times. She tied the local vampire lore with the European folklore and historical characters. She knew the literary and film history of vampires as well. The 12 friends I brought were all thrilled and thanked me profusely for booking the tour for us. We couldn’t have been more pleased.

Rose is so amazing, hands... - Rose is so amazing, hands down my favorite tour guide I've had here! She was so knowledgeable and so funny, loved hearing her storytelling. Everything she said had me enthralled at every word. I would most definitely take another tour with her, just to hear her exclamations about history.

Rose is great! Vampire 🧛 - Rose was absolutely amazing. She is a great storyteller. Has an incredible sense of humor. Good voice inflection. Includes the audience & makes regular eye contact. In costume & even had fiery red hair! We knew it was her as soon as she walked up. Obvious that she was confident in her knowledge of the subject. The best by far & we went on three walking tours this trip alone. Money well spent. 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

A True Love Letter to the Vampires of New Orleans - Rose was absolutely incredible on our vampire tour. Her deep knowledge and passion for New Orleans’ haunted and vampiric history truly brought each story to life. You could feel her emotion and dedication in every tale she told—each joke delivered with love, and every legend shared with deep respect for the traditions that shaped this city. Thanks to curators like Rose, the dark and beautiful legacy of New Orleans endures—where the undead still whisper through alleyways and legends linger like mist, forever woven into the soul of the city.

We had a blast! Rose was awesome. - Rose was one of the best guides I’ve had on any tour. She brought New Orleans’ vampire lore to life with a perfect mix of spooky, fun, theatrical, and historical storytelling. From the chilling legend of the Casket Girls at the Ursuline Convent to the mysterious tale of Jacques of St. Germaine, every stop was fascinating and engaging. She managed the pace and distractions of the French Quarter like a pro, and even stayed after the tour to share more local history with us at a gothic neighborhood bar. It was clear she’s not only deeply knowledgeable but beloved by the community. If you’re even slightly curious about the darker side of New Orleans, don’t miss this tour—and definitely ask for Rose.

History, Legend, Folklore! - So informative and fun! Rose Sinister, our tour guide, was a wealth of knowledge and folklore. She has an amazing ability to weave together a compelling narrative and build suspenseful stories.

Rose is phenomenal! - Thoroughly enjoyed this tour with Rose Sinister & totally recommend it! I’d heard about Rose’s guided vampire tours with Haunted History for years through Instagram & knew that if I ever made it out to NOLA I had to book it & Im honestly so glad I did. Rose is very knowledgeable, insightful, humorous and wonderfully theatrical in her story telling. Rose’s tour was a definite highlight of our time in New Orleans!

Rose Sinister is engaging and so much fun! - We were moved to this tour when the tour we had booked initially had an emergency. Rose Sinister was just great! We learned so much about local history and culture, life in New Orleans, and of course, vampires. Rose is an endless fountain of information. Be sure to ask questions; she knows 1000x more than she can cram into a tour. The vampire fans in the crowd loved all the connections made, the movie trivia, and the lore. Even a casual fan like myself enjoyed the local history and stories. Whenever you can watch a passionate professional at work, you should do it.

Toast the guide was great! - The rain was heavy and so we became the only one on our tour last night. Our guide, Toast, was interesting and a very good story teller that made our personal experience unique and what we wanted to see. He was knowledgeable of both ghost and vampire history in the city.
