They are making a movie based on Madame Delphine LaLaurie and will be filming in the actual LaLaurie Mansion in New Orleans.
Kathy Bates played LaLaurie on the Coven season of American Horror Story.
They’re making this into a franchise??
There are accounts of slave children being tortured to death in that house. This is documented in library book accounts - they’re making a “horror movie” series about incidents involving torture, slave rebellion, paranormal events - basically another voyeuristic torture porn of the black race with the Hollywood treatment. Yeah I’m not with that shyt. Since when tf did racism and slavery become a horror genre where every upcoming other movie that’s released is the subject matter.
“On April 10, 1834, a fire at the LaLaurie mansion in
New Orleans,
Louisiana, leads to the discovery of a torture chamber where enslaved workers are routinely brutalized by Delphine LaLaurie. Rescuers found a 70-year-old black woman trapped in the kitchen during the fire because she was chained up while LaLaurie was busy saving her furniture. The woman later revealed that she had set the fire in an attempt to escape LaLaurie’s torture. She led authorities up to the attic, where seven slaves were tied with spiked iron collars.”
“After Delphine LaLaurie married her third husband, Louis LaLaurie, and moved into his estate on Royal Street, she immediately took control of the large number of slaves used as servants. LaLaurie was a well-known sadist, but the mistreatment of enslaved workers by the wealthy and socially connected was not a matter for the police at the time.”
“However, in 1833, Delphine chased a small enslaved girl with a whip until the girl fell off the roof of the house and died. LaLaurie tried to cover up the incident, but police found the body hidden in a well. Authorities decided to fine LaLaurie and force the sale of the other enslaved people on the estate.”
Welp- I’m in a bad mood now.
