The Dark & Spooky Side of New Orleans: Voodoo, Marie Laveau, LaLaurie Haunted Mansion, Vampires, St. Louis Cemetery, John Bayou,and Hauntings

Ever find yourself wondering about the strange corners of history or that odd noise in the attic, but you'd rather laugh than hide under the covers? That's the space where Cauldron Convos lives. Hosted by Kayla Cauldron and a fellow bonehead, this somewhat funny podcast takes a meandering walk through the weird, from documented ghost stories and the grim details of the Salem Witch Trials to modern UFO sightings and unsettling true crime cases. We approach every topic-be it cults, exorcisms, or wild conspiracy theories-with a deep curiosity and a necessary dose of skepticism, doing the research so you don't have to. Each episode is a compact, thirty-minute dive where earnest discussion about paranormal mysteries and science fiction tangents collides with off-the-cuff humor and genuine bafflement. It's less about finding definitive answers and more about enjoying the strange journey together, questioning everything from historical records to personal encounters with the unexplained. Tune in for a blend of genres that never takes itself too seriously, even when the subject matter gets seriously dark. This is for anyone who loves a good story, values a fact-check, and appreciates a nervous chuckle when things get a little too spooky.
