According to legend, sometime back around the 1820’s, the Devil decided to make the Crescent City his home and so for years folks claimed that if you stopped in front of the mansion at 1319 St. Charles Avenue around sunset and looked up at the top of the front gable, the Prince of Darkness would be standing there, “grinning and twisting his evil lips, his eyes keen as needles and his sharp little horns quite visible.” Today the Devil's Mansion is no longer there, but its reputation has certainly not faded.
