There are many headless ghosts in Louisiana and one of them is said to walk the Greenwood Cemetery in Greenwood, LA. Disembodied voices and strange sounds have also been reported at the cemetery. This isn’t surprising given the history of the location.

Maybe because this is the only truly French state in the Union, Louisiana haunts seem to attract ghosts that are missing their heads. Another headless ghost walks the levees of Chalmette Battlefield and though there are no headless ghosts reported at Headless Cemetery in Eunice it makes sense in an odd way to label the cemetery “Headless” just because it’s in Louisiana.

Greenwood Cemetery was once the site of Stoner Plantation as well as a Civil War military hospital. A single cross in the middle of Pauper’s Field marks the site where poor folks were given a free burial. There are no burial markers on this small plot of land at Greenwood Cemetery, but the graves are numbered.

Milton Taylor Hancock has a tomb at Greenwood Cemetery. His four-year old daughter, Ethyl died in 1892 and she was buried in a cast iron coffin and placed in a tomb at the cemetery. A chair was placed in the tomb for Milton’s wife, Nina, who would sit in each evening to read the little girl bedtime stories after her death. In 1903, the Hancocks lost their 24 year old daughter, Irene. She was buried with Ethyl in the Greenwood Cemetery tomb. The Hancocks moved to Los Angeles, CA with their only surviving child, Milton Hancock, Jr. In 1905, the 16 year old was driving a car that was struck. He died in one of the first automobile accidents in the United State. He was also buried in the Greenwood Cemetery tomb.

The building has 34 stories. It is the tallest building in the city. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. It is also a National Historic Landmark.

The first state capitol building was completed in 1882, but it proved too small by the 1920’s. A new Louisiana state capitol building was completed in 1932 thanks to encouragement from Governor Huey Long. In September, 1935, Huey Long was shot in the State Capitol building by a man named Carl Weiss. Weiss was then gunned down by Louisiana State Police. Long lingered for two days before dying at Our Lady of the Lake Hospital on September 10^th.

On April 26, 1970, a bomb went off in the Senate Chamber. The bomb was made up of 20 to 30 sticks of dynamite. It was detonated in retaliation for the death of 3 African Americans who were shot by police. The only evidence of the explosion today is a pencil embedded in the ceiling.

A congressman or senator is said to haunt the Louisiana State Capitol building. Known as “Pierre”, according to Shadowlands, this ghost tends to linger upstairs.A more likely ghost would be Carl Weiss or Huey Long.

Security officers have reported motion sensors going off when no one is on the upper floor particularly in the middle of the night.

The Morgue Bar and Lounge was a unique pub in that it was once a New Orleans mortuary functioning during the horrific Yellow Fever epidemic in 1853. Ten thousand people died in 1853, their bodies passing through this mortuary on the way to the grave. The Morgue Bar and Lounge has been closed for some time.

Other online forums say that the building is now used as a haunted house known as The Mortuary, but this haunt is located at a different address from the one listed for The Morgue Bar and Lounge.

The Morgue Bar and Lounge building was originally built in 1849.

New Orleans locals report that the mortician’s daughter often makes a showing in main bar area. She has been known to move objects, especially from the ladies restroom.

The Shadowlands web site reports that bodies were stacked in the women’s room, but the veracity of this statement is suspect. During the Yellow Fever epidemic, bodies piled up everywhere. It’s unlikely that the women’s restroom was the only place in the building used for storing bodies, since it was, in fact, a morgue.

The first soldiers who entered the house found maltreated slaves chained down upstairs. Some of these slaves even had maggot-infested wounds. The slaves were taken to a field hospital.

Two Confederate soldiers were taken hostage and kept at the Griffin House after they were caught looting. Often, Union soldiers would sing John Brown’s Body (a song popular during the Civil War era) to these men. The two Confederates got ahold of pistols after they decided to commit suicide. While lying facing each other on two different mattresses in an upstairs room, they took aim, one at the other and shot each other. The wounds were inflicted in the heart. They bled to death within minutes, their blood oozing through the floorboards and down the walls in the room below.

Visitors to the Griffin House have heard the song John Brown’s Body being sung by disembodied voices. Some have even reported seeing the apparition of Civil War soldiers singing this song.

People have reported hearing rattling chains in the upstairs rooms as well as moaning and groaning sounds. The disembodied sounds of boots marching across the floor is also commonly reported.

A concrete block was thrown at one visitor who vowed never to return to the Griffin House.

Drug addicts and derelicts occupied the once abandoned property for a period of time, but fled due to the presence of the ghosts and disembodied voices!

In terms of haunted places in the United States that guarantee a thrill, the Griffin House is a good choice due to its dark history and consistently strange events.

The Ellerbe Road School, known once as the George Washington Carver High School, near Shreveport, LA.

The Ellerbe Road School, also known once as the George Washington Carver High School was originally opened in 1957. Due to financial problems, the school closed down again by 1973. Although there are rumors that there was a fire at the school and several students were killed, this has not been verified by our research.

After the school closed down, it was vacant until 1981 when the property was leased for use as a Baptist Christian College. The college closed four years later in 1985. Since that time, the property has been abandoned except for some livestock. The building is currently slated for demolition.

Some locals claim that a janitor at the school molested some students there. One day, the janitor and a few of the students were inexplicably missing. What happened after their disappearance remains a mystery.

A water tower on the Ellerbe Road School property is used as a divining pool at times by brave souls who climb the rusty ladder (which is not recommended, by the way). The reflection in the pool of water seen by peering into the top of the tower is said to provide an account of the viewer’s death day.

Still other rumors say that people practiced black magic on the premises. Some locals claim that the campus was the site of a Civil War battle.

The school is located in Caddo Parish, Louisiana on Ellerbe Road.

Having functioned as a Confederate hospital at one time, this hotel has seen some gruesome sights. The ghosts of the Hotel Provincial make testament to the fact that there was much unfinished business and many tragic lives lost in the building. Ghostly doctors as well as soldiers wander the hallways. Sometimes they reach out to guests for help. Disembodied moaning sounds and cries of pain have been reported in the building.

Building 5 is reputedly the most haunted structure on site. One little girl stepped out of the shower to find a pile of towels on the floor. Upon looking more closely, she saw that they weren’t towels, but rather, bloody bandages and dirtied sheets.

A security guard reported having a rare experience in this building. He stepped out of the elevator into a room that had been transformed before his eyes into the Civil War hospital complete with wounded soldiers and doctors hurrying from cot to cot. The building, as it was at this current time was completely obscured. The stunned security guard stood motionless, waiting for the vision to disappear. It is rare for individuals to have these kinds of experiences even in very haunted places. Visit the C. C. White Building at Wesleyan University in Nebraska to read about an incident in which a woman was similarly transported back in time at a haunted building on campus.

Blood stains reportedly appear on sheets inexplicably and then disappear.

The Kisatchie National Forest in Louisiana is said to be haunted by restless Native American spirits, but it was also the site of a brutal murder in 2013.

The Northwood Kisatchie National Forest is located in central Louisiana. As its name suggests, it is a forested area, one of the largest natural and untouched areas in Lousiana. Locals claim that disembodied sounds and voices have been heard in the forests. Apparitions of Native Americans have been observed in the trees. Some people have also heard the far-off sound of drumming sounds and singing when no one else is nearby.

According to KSLA News, a 25 year old man named Tony Procell was abducted by Robert Barthelemy on August 20, 2013. The kidnapping occurred at Procell’s home and was captured on video. Both Procell and Barthelemy were members of the National Guard and Barthelemy was a member of the Natchitoches Police Department. They had apparently gotten into a dispute over a female.

Five days after Procell disappeared, his body was found in Kisatchie National Forest in a shallow grave near the edge of Saline Lake. Barthelemy and Procell had hunted together in this area in the past. Cadaver dogs found Procell’s body, but the face had been so badly injured by blunt force trauma that specialists had to be called in to reconstruct it for the funeral.
