Summary

The iron wheels of the New Orleans streetcars have carried generations through the heart of the Crescent City — and not all their passengers have been among the living. Along the clattering tracks of St. Charles and Canal, whispers of vanished conductors, spectral riders, and echoes of tragedy linger in the night air. This haunting journey through the city’s veins is underscored by an original soundscape from West Coast artist Tommy Jordan, created exclusively for our Four Shadows series.
