Abandon All Hope, Halloween in the Swamp 2010 – Episode 002 – The 13th Gate - Baton Rouge, LA In this episode we talk with Dwayne Sanburn, owner of The 13th Gate, about his 40,000 square foot nightmare located at 832 Saint Philip Street, in downtown Baton Rouge, Louisiana. Located in a former slaughterhouse turned sporting goods store, the attraction actually encompases 2 buildings. The building itself actually was constructed in 1849 and has a long history of “interesting” activity happening there aside from it’s present use as a haunted house. Dwayne shares with us his inspiration and drive to create one of the best “haunted” attractions in the nation and how it has evolved over time, with the help of our burgeoning movie industry talent, to become a nationally recognized, acclaimed, and award winning attraction. We then take a audio walkthrough of the attraction, but don’t worry it won’t spoil it…it has been edited and it changes somewhat night to night in how things are presented and we do not detail

Abandon All Hope, Halloween in the Swamp 2010 – Episode 003 – The Myrtles Plantation  St. Francisville, Louisiana In this episode we talk with Mrs. Hester, Manager Of The Myrtles Plantation. She takes us back into the history of this beautiful, yet very haunted, home. Built in 1796 this current day bed & breakfast is nestled among the ancient oaks on it’s present 10 +/- acres, of its once 5000 acres. It’s present quiet, serene beauty is in contrast to the violence that the home has been witness to in it’s 214 years of existence. Mrs. Hester recounts the history of the home, grounds and stories relating to some of the plantation’s more “permanent” residents. The home, as we mentioned, is a functioning bed & breakfast and has a number of rooms both in the home and located around the grounds. It also has a wonderful restaurant & gift shop on grounds. In addition to overnight rooms the plantation offers both daytime standard tours & nighttime “mystery” tours. More information on the plantation
