Does the Ghost of a Serial Killer Still Walk the Halls of LaLaurie Mansion in New Orleans?

By Marlene Pardo

The three-storied home at 1140 Royal Street (Rue Royale) in the French Quarter is presently for sale for a cool $2.9 million, but for many years it stood empty and ruined. It was only back during 1832 when it was just newly built for its owners, Dr. and Madame LaLaurie that it was as beautifully furnished as it is now.

For two years Delphine LaLaurie, a Creole socialite, hosted lavish soirees that were attended by all the prominent citizens in New Orleans; however all that changed on a spring afternoon on April 10th, 1834 when an old Negress cook set a fire in the kitchen. Neighbors rushed in to save valuables, including the slaves and what they found confirmed their suspicions beyond their worse expectation.

The Universe we live in is so fast paced now; all we seem to do is rush to eat, rush to sleep, rush when we wake, and then rush and hurry off to work. We just don’t seem to take the time to care about our physical well being or even sometimes take a minute to take a good look at ourselves in the mirror. It has been said that the face is the index of the mind, but somehow we fail to connect the fact that our ageing and dull faces are just another sign that our minds are just plain exhausted. It seems that it is only after our medical doctors tell us to slow down and try to take some time to get on some sort of a relaxation program, only then do we wake up to the fact that we have ignoredoverlooked the most critically important part of our body-our minds.

Astral projection techniques can relax your mind and give you an out of this world experience, which will open your mind and rejuvenate you into a highly energetic individual. Let me take a few minutes of your time and, if you are new to out of body techniques and wondering about it, I will explain what I know about out of body techniques. Your mind is able to travel to many different places without you actually going anywhere at all. It could be a hot sweltering summer’s day and you could be lying in your living room, but in your mind you could be skiing down a cold snow covered ski slope thoroughly enjoying yourself. The result of this is that you feel so relaxed and calm that you are absolutely comfortable and not bothered by the stifling heat that surrounds you. This is exactly what astral projection can do for you.

NUMEROLOGY AND YOUR LIFE IN 2010.

Your first name – especially your personal name that you chose to be known by – is all about your personal identity.

Here is how the numerical vibrations of your first name will effect your life in 2010!

Numerology has a great deal to do with the numeric value of the Alphabet and there are many legends and theories about how this came about.

The Alphabet itself was inspired by pictorial representations that recorded elaborate stories.

These full pictographs originally were abbreviated to form hieroglyphics with each symbol depicting a word. As more time elapsed – the glyphs were further reduced to represent individual sounds and then the consonants and vowels that we know today. Read the rest of this entry »

Halloween has a long history dating back some 2000 years to the Celtic days of old.  The Celts celebrated their New Year on November 1st and it was a day of celebrating the end of the summer harvest and the beginning of the long cold winter.  Celts believed that on the night before the new year, the boundary between the worlds of the living and the dead became blurred.  They build big bonfires and burned animals in a sacrificial ceremony as they dressed up in ghouly costumes.  When the Celtic people disappeared the Christian leaders replaced the holiday with All Saints day to honor saints and martyrs.  They still celebrated with bonfires and costumes.  As time passed it became the kids holiday we know today but most kids don’t know how it got started.  All they know is they get candy.    You can read more about Halloween at history.com and get some more details but that’s bout it.

Or if you go looking for the Atco Ghost (which seems to be a part of the holiday around here) maybe you can ask him what he knows about the story.
