Deep in the heart of New Orleans, Louisiana, lies a home in which vampires and ghosts were born; they still live there. Now you can live there too - if you dare take on the [creepiest and most frightening](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fairmont-hotel-vancouver) creation of all: a mortgage! Anne Rice, the creator of all things vampire, wrote her ‘Vampire Chronicles’ between 1989 and 2004 in the [five-bedroom home](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/byers-house) known as Rosegate. It also is the setting for her Mayfair Witches books.

Recent owners of Anne Rice’s former Rosegate home claim the [house is haunted](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ghost-town1). It’s up for sale, so if you’d like to find out whether this claim is true or not, you can do so for a cool $3.75 million.
