The Old Carrollton Jail Hauntings

On Saturday, October 21, 1899 the New Orleans Times-Democrat ran an article under the headline: “Real Ghost Story. The Old Carrollton Jail Said to be Haunted.” Through the use of the exact words of police officers, the article chronicled eerie occurrences at the local jail. But while many of the police officers who served at the Carrollton Jail stated that they didn’t believe in ghosts, most agreed that the strange things happening there seemed to defy rational explanation; and over time, everyone stationed there had a tale to tell with reports as varied as disembodied footsteps and noises, to heavy furniture moving on its own, lights turning on and off, and objects moving without cause.
