The true appeal of the book was learning about the establishments where the stories take place and the vibe of the city. He also does a thorough job of fact-checking and debunking a number of the Quarter‘s myths and legends to include Madame LaLaurie, Marie Laveau, and the Laffite brothers. Most of the ghost stories are pretty mild. I enjoyed this though as it gives great descriptions of the city. I even added a few stops during my time there!
