“Haunted” connotes the dead who are restless. New Orleans is not haunted, it is under the power of the demon who is the “Prince of the power of the air”, for that area. See the Book of Daniel for references of such. Every large area that is corrupt has such a demon over it. It can often be “felt”, as you enter such an area. It often manifests itself as a feeling of excitement, or overwhelming. If you have ever visited a place like Chicago or NYC, or Las Vegas, especially for the first time, you have probably experienced it. People who enjoy such places, described it as “a place like no other”, or, “I felt like I was in a magnetic place”, and so on. Think of Broadway, a place of uncommon entertainment, sometimes rather harmless, as in, for example, the musical, “Oklahoma”, but, like tv and movies, increasingly decadent, but exceedingly proud of their decadence.
“Think of Broadway...”
I grew up in NYC, and it does (or did, who knows right now) have incredible energy. Now, how much that has to do with demons, etc. I don’t know.
Before 1968 or so, NYC was a paradise to me. After that it was down hill for a long, long, time. Until Giuliani. But it was never what it had been.
Under the morons running the place now it is going to hell in a handbasket, no supernatural help required!
