If you take a stroll around the leafy Garden District, find the BrevardWisdom-Rice House at 1239 First Street, a columned beauty that sheltered horror novelist Anne Rice from 1989 to 2004. The author, who featured New Orleans as a backdrop in her bestselling Vampire Chronicles series, used the house as a setting for her 1990 novel The Witching Hour.
