The Buckner Mansion here in New Orleans was also used on the FX series “American Horror Story: Coven,” this grand old house is known as “Miss Robichaux’s Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies” (aka witches).
In real life, it’s a three-story, 20,000-square-foot landmark in New Orleans from the 1850s called Buckner Mansion.
Buckner Mansion
New Orleans, Louisiana
This Garden District mansion was built to be bigger and grander than its original owner’s former partner turned rival.
Historical landmark in New Orleans, Louisiana.
New Orleans has a long association with the supernatural. A more recent addition to the canon is the third season of American Horror Story, called “Coven.” That series followed the struggles of young witches in New Orleans, some of which resided in a beautiful mansion in the Garden District.
The Buckner Mansion was built in 1856 as the residence of cotton kingpin Henry Sullivan Buckner, and his intention was to have a home that was bigger and grander than that of his ex-partner and now rival, Frederick Stanton. (That mansion, Stanton Hall, still stands in Natchez, Mississippi.) The Buckners lived in the mansion until they sold the house in 1923. It then became the Soule Business School, a highly regarded institution, until 1983. An inscription embedded in the sidewalk in mosaic reads: “From education as the leading cause, the public character its color draws.” Notable alumni of the school include New Orleans mayor Robert Maestri and Biloxi mayor Jeremiah Joseph O’Keefe.
Since the school shut down the mansion became a private residence once again, with FX renting it for the production of American Horror Story in 2013. In the show the mansion doubles as Miss Robichaux’s Academy for Exceptional Young Ladies, a boarding school for young witches where they are taught how to use their powers. The mansion would also make an appearance (along with some characters) in season eight.
Haunted???
About that ghost… The mansion is allegedly haunted by the ghost of a slave, known only as Miss Josephine. After the Civil War, Miss Josephine chose to remain at the mansion even after death. Over the years people have claimed to hear her sweeping and the inexplicable smell of lemon, with which she used to clean. Also, some even claim to have seen her ghost on the stairs. As far as poltergeist activity, the house has that too…in abundance it would seem. Lights turning on and off, doors open and close, all on their own. Oh, and some have claimed to have watched chandeliers swing, by themselves, for over an hour. I personally haven’t had the opportunity to visit the house, so I can’t attest to this paranormal activity, but if you go, or have already visited the Buckner mansion please share your experience in the comments. Today, most people recognize the mansion from the television show American Horror Story: Coven. The Buckner mansion was featured as Miss Robicheaux’s Academy, which trained witches.
Know Before You Go
The Buckner Mansion is two blocks away from the St. Charles Streetcar Line, which has stops at Josephine and First Streets. The 91 bus also goes directly by the house.
