Talking To The Dead On Tour
Talking To The Dead On Tour is less a standard New Orleans outing than a private spiritual event brought to you by Psychic Medium Marie. The central experience is an audience viewing of readings delivered through the mouth of the Living Dead, with the buyer choosing the city, group, and event setup.
I like the private format, which lets your own group take part rather than placing you with strangers. I also like the unusual flexibility: Marie can travel to you, travel costs and accommodations are included, and the same price covers a group séance for up to five people. The main drawback is the $1,095 price, especially since you must provide the round table, venue, seating, decorations, and equipment.
Key points at a glance
- Psychic Medium Marie travels to your chosen city, not just a fixed New Orleans address.
- One group séance costs the same for up to five people, making the price easier to share.
- Optional attendance can reach 500 viewers, though the practical arrangements are yours to handle.
- Photos are included and emailed, while audio and video recording are optional.
- The advertised experience lasts about two hours, with the wider booking window listed as two to four hours.
- Cancellation is free up to 24 hours before the start time, but late changes and cancellations are not refunded.
What happens during the New Orleans reading

The listed starting point is 908 Bourbon Street, with an 8:00 pm start and a return to that same meeting point. At the same time, pickup is offered from a location you choose, so you should settle the exact meeting arrangement before the event.
The main activity is an audience viewing of spiritual readings. The wording points to a presentation involving the Living Dead, rather than a simple one-on-one psychic appointment. That makes this a better match for a special group occasion, a curious night out, or an event where several people want to share the same unusual setting.
The scheduled reading portion is about two hours. The overall experience is described as lasting two to four hours, so allow extra time around the central reading. You will also need time for travel if you select a different location or ask Marie to come to you.
The event is customized by the buyer. You choose your group, your city, and, based on the available options, the scale of the audience. That flexibility is useful, but it also means you need to be clear about what you want before booking. A small private séance and a large viewing for hundreds are very different productions.

Why the private group format matters

The price covers a private activity for your group only. This is important if you want a more personal setting or would rather not discuss family matters, grief, or private questions in front of strangers.
A group séance costs the same for up to five people. At the full price of $1,095, that works out to $219 per person if five people split the cost evenly. For two people, it is $547.50 each, and for one person, you carry the full charge yourself. The value improves sharply as your group gets closer to five.
You may also add viewers, with an option listed for up to 500 people. That could make sense for an organized event, but remember that the venue, seats, equipment, and physical setup are not supplied. The large audience option is therefore not a ready-made theater event. You are paying for Marie’s participation and travel arrangements, not for a fully produced room.
I would decide first whether you want a private experience for five or fewer people, or a larger event. If it is the first, planning is fairly clear. If it is the second, you should confirm every production detail before committing money.
Psychic Medium Marie’s approach

Marie is the named provider and the central figure in the experience. The personal accounts connected with her work describe a warm, welcoming manner, a peaceful house setting, and readings delivered with kindness, humor, candor, and care.
Several details point to a style that allows questions and conversation. One couple had the chance to ask questions during a reading, and the experience was described as thoughtful and welcoming. Another person chose a shorter reading and found Marie personable, with no pressure to select a larger option.
That matters because psychic readings can feel uncomfortable if the tone is rushed or sales-focused. Here, the available descriptions suggest that you can expect a personal exchange rather than a loud stage performance in every setting. Still, the exact mood will depend on the event you arrange, the number of people present, and the venue you provide.
Some past readings have focused on a deceased parent, past lives, career direction, life purpose, and personal problems. One person came away motivated to make a career change. Another felt that a reading connected with their biological father. These are deeply personal subjects, so you should go in with an open mind but keep your own judgment.
What the readings may cover

The experience can include spiritual readings, past-life readings, and communication connected with people who have died. The information supplied does not set out a fixed script, so you should not expect every session to follow the same order or cover the same themes.
The personal accounts connected with Marie include specific references to family members, life purpose, future direction, and matters that participants felt had not been shared beforehand. One person said a past-life reading felt accurate for both partners. Another described receiving answers to problems they had not realized were troubling them.
That is the appeal for people who already enjoy psychic or spiritual work. You may find the conversation emotionally useful, reflective, or entertaining. You may also find parts of it difficult to interpret. The experience is not a substitute for professional medical, legal, or mental health advice, and you should avoid treating a reading as a firm instruction about major life choices.
I suggest deciding in advance how personal you want to be. You can prepare a few questions, but you do not need to share every private detail. A group should also agree on boundaries before the session, especially if the subject of deceased relatives may bring up strong emotions.

What the $1,095 price includes

The fee is high for a two-hour activity, but it covers more than a basic appointment. The package includes Marie’s travel to your chosen city, travel expenses, and accommodations. Photos are included and sent to your email.
The same group séance price applies to up to five people. That makes this most sensible as a shared expense for a small group rather than a solo purchase. You can also arrange optional audio and video recordings, and the audience can be expanded up to 500 viewers.
The key point is that this is a service fee, not an all-in event package. The following items are specifically left to you:
- A round table
- Seating
- A venue
- Decorations
- Equipment
This can affect your real budget. A home setting may require little extra spending, while a larger gathering could need a rented room, chairs, sound equipment, and recording support. Ask for a clear list of technical and venue needs before you finalize plans.
The price may feel worthwhile if you have five people, want a private event, and value the travel and accommodation arrangements being handled. It is harder to justify if you are alone, expect a conventional guided tour, or assume the room and equipment are included.
Planning a venue and pickup

The location information gives you two possible approaches. You can begin at 908 Bourbon Street in New Orleans at 8:00 pm, or you can pick your own location for pickup. The activity ends back at the meeting point.
Because the provider can travel to you, the physical setting is part of your planning. Choose a place where your group can sit comfortably and hear the reading. You need to provide the round table, seating, venue, and equipment, so do not wait until the day of the event to work out the room.
For a large audience, confirm how many people the selected venue can hold and what recording or sound equipment is needed. The option for up to 500 viewers gives you scale, but it does not remove the practical work of organizing the space.
The activity is offered in English. It is near public transportation, and most people can participate. No special physical requirements are listed, but the supplied information does not give details about wheelchair access or specific venue arrangements, so ask directly if those points matter to you.
Photos, recordings, and lasting memories

Photos are included and sent by email, which gives you a simple record of the event without adding a separate photography charge. Audio and video recordings are optional rather than part of the basic package.
That distinction is worth noting. If you want a recording, confirm whether you need to arrange the equipment yourself, since equipment is not included in the general package. The supplied information does not explain the recording format, delivery time, or whether recording is handled by Marie or by your group.
For a private session involving family memories or emotional subjects, a recording may be useful. It lets you revisit details later, when the immediate atmosphere has passed. On the other hand, some people may prefer to leave the experience in the room rather than create a permanent file.
Who will get the most from this experience

I would recommend this to a small group that already has an interest in psychic readings, spiritual communication, or unusual New Orleans experiences. It may also suit a private celebration, a group seeking a reflective evening, or people who want Marie to come to their own city.
The experience is less suitable if you want a conventional sightseeing tour with landmarks, transportation between attractions, or a fixed public schedule. It is also a poor fit if you dislike open-ended spiritual claims or would feel pressured by an emotionally focused conversation.
The private setup is helpful for couples and close friends. One couple arranged a reading together, and the format gave both partners time to take part. A group of friends also used the experience as a shared event, with each person receiving attention.
If you are uncertain, the described short reading option may be a gentler starting point in a smaller setting. The larger $1,095 booking, however, is a substantial commitment, so make sure the group understands the format and cost before paying.
Booking, confirmation, and cancellation

Confirmation is sent within 48 hours of booking, subject to availability. That means you should not assume the date is final until confirmation arrives, especially if you are arranging a group, venue, or travel plans around it.
Free cancellation is available up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. If you cancel less than 24 hours before the experience begins, the amount paid is not refunded. Changes made within that same 24-hour window are not accepted, and the cut-off follows local New Orleans time.
For a $1,095 booking, I would wait for confirmation before paying for a venue or inviting a large audience. Keep the booking time clear for everyone in your group, since late changes can leave you responsible for the full charge.
Should you book Talking To The Dead On Tour?
Book it if you want a private, highly personal spiritual event and can share the cost among up to five people. The ability to choose your city, have Psychic Medium Marie travel to you, and arrange a group séance gives the experience unusual flexibility.
Think twice if you expect a complete event package. You must supply the venue, table, chairs, decorations, and equipment, and the $1,095 cost is difficult to justify for one person. The experience also asks you to be comfortable with serious subjects such as death, family connections, past lives, and personal purpose.
My practical choice would be to arrange a small group, confirm the setting and equipment needs in writing, and treat the reading as a personal or entertainment experience rather than a source of guaranteed answers. With those expectations, this can be a memorable New Orleans night for the right audience.
