Massacre at the Sultan's Palace

<p><strong>“Blood Seeped Under the Door, Down the Steps, and into the Street…”</strong></p> <p>On the corner of Orleans Avenue and Dauphine Street in the French Quarter of New Orleans is a stately three and a half-story mansion that is said to be the site of a massacre so significant that blood flowed from the building and into the street.</p> <p>It is the tale of a mysterious Turkish gentleman, perhaps even the brother of a Sultan, who arrived in New Orleans, threw wild parties, and was then viciously murdered.</p> <p>But is this story true or is it like the city of New Orleans— the product of an ever changing cultural landscape that merges the past and the present; evolving and intersecting with other well known legends like that of Pere Antoine’s Date Palm, or The Tree of the Dead.</p> <p><strong>We are finalists in the 2021 Paranormal Podcast Awards!</strong> Please take a minute to <a href= "http://bit.ly/para21">vote for Southern Gothic in the <strong>Best Ghost Stories</strong> category today!</a></p> <p><strong>Help Southern Gothic grow by becoming a <a href= "https://www.patreon.com/southerngothicmedia">Patreon Supporter</a> today!</strong></p> <ul> <li><strong>Website:</strong> <a href= "https://www.southerngothicmedia.com/">SouthernGothicMedia.com</a></li> <li><strong>Merch Store:</strong> <a href= "https://teespring.com/stores/southern-gothic-the-podcast">https://www.southerngothicmedia.com/merch</a></li> <li><strong>Pinterest</strong> <a href= "www.pinterest.com/southerngothicmedia">@SouthernGothicMedia</a></li> <li><strong>Facebook:</strong> <a href= "https://www.facebook.com/SouthernGothicMedia/">@SouthernGothicMedia</a></li> <li><strong>Instagram:</strong> <a href= "https://www.instagram.com/southerngothicmedia/">@SouthernGothicMedia</a></li> <li><strong>Twitter:</strong> <a href= "https://twitter.com/sogopodcast">@SoGoPodcast</a></li> </ul> <p><strong>This week’s episode inclues a promo for the podcast <a href="https://www.vanishingpostcards.com/">Vanishing Postcards</a>.</strong></p>
