Bloody Mary is an 10th generation Creole whose family came to New Orleans before there was a New Orleans in 1699, with a founding expedition landing on Mardi Gras day to claim the Gulf coast for France, LIterally she shares the first French foot steps with her French ancestor Claude Trepanier near Ocean spring on the gulf coast witth Sir d'Iberville. There they bullt the first  settlement " Fort Maurepas, Then they came closer to build Fort St John in 1701 to protect the Lake.Pontchartrain entrance into now New Orleans, then on to build Vieux Caree (french quarter) in 1718 as La Nouvelle Orleans. Those  same ancestors set sail from Normandy France to claim territory here for France in a pre-colonial expedition. Claude was given a land grant as reward in the not yet built New Orleans and build his house near where Place d'arms ,now Jackson square and on the lot where famous Muriels resteraunt is today! It is from these French roots that I share bloodline from his Great Grandparents from France to many.  This includes Marie Catherine Laveau and the Belovoed Mother Henriette Delile who is  up for Sainthood now ! As a first founding family here, Trepangier or Trepangny share these common ancestors with many in town. Claude Trepanier is our1st cousin & where our Creole roots begin and bloodline connectton lay,  We are both consangual descendents, cousins to Claude, as blood kin we share great grandparents from France & New France, Robert Drouin and Anne Clouthier. 

So After many challeges of worthiness as a Voodoo Queen this proof is now given that, Bloody Mary is both intitated and bloodline Voodoo Queen in New Orleans Voodoo traditio n& Initiated Mambo Asogwe in Haitian Voodoo and YaYa NkIsi in Palo "reglaes de Congo". My dedication to the culture, history and spirits should be the more evidential part.. She is also Mamiissi a Mami Wata Priestess" Hoodoo teacher and Swamp Witch. Spiritism has a large place in her heart and she shares that to you in Seance and mediumship. As a true mystic, she combines her abilities as Shaman, Mambo, Queen, YaYa and Spiritism Psychic into all aspects of her life. She was born and raised New Orleans Catholic in a Latin Catholic culture. Her visions and visits from spirits surrounded her since childhood!  As an artist, Mary designs her work with an empath's heart, a historian's detail and a researcher's mind. Her Psychic abilities have always lent second sight into all aspects of her work. Her root work and Hoodoo help heal lives & after-lives as well as the actual land and waters all around .Bloody Mary is an expert spiritual healer and is called in to  heal the living and the dead - people palces and things. She detaches people of unclean entities (even movie sets) though exorcisms are sometimes necessary ; she prefers to be an advocate for spirits rights .She tries to instill methods of cooperation first! Add impeccable storytelling, ritual execution and, of course, paranormal investigations with spirit connections, and these gifts magnify a well-rounded technique that she shares with her visitors as Voodoo Paranormal. Her House has 40 years + of paranornmal investigations to pull from and she learned directly from the spirits . Each blessing guides her to unearth old knowledge which enhance her scholarly pursuits; this psychic knowledge works in tandem with avid research creating a unique and holistic approach to understanding her hometown of New Orleans and the unseen worlds.

Bloody Mary is my chosen pen name and one of my priestess names. But there are many answers to the question Why?

 

For the record, I don’t drink blood and I don't drink Bloody Marys, nor do I do blood sacrifice. On the surface, the name “Bloody Mary” conjures the ideas of darkness or danger. As a Shaman and anthropological researcher, I have indeed studied the macabre and multifaceted historical beliefs surrounding blood and the thoughts that it invokes but  it is in folkore too! Plus i do MIrror magic!

WHY BLOODY MARY?

MORE ABOUT MARY:

•  •  •​

“Bloody Mary” is a name that many young ladies come to fear as they approach their own mirror. You may know it as a “game” of sorts: girls chant “Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary, Bloody Mary...” into a mirror waiting to see if she appears. And she does. I can't tell you how many teenagers have called to me and invited me from all over the world. Some contact by email, begging me not to hurt them, some prank call me. Sometimes I play along, sometimes I explain it to them logically; it all depends on my mood.

Bloody Mary in itself is the sometimes-frightening prospect of reaching adulthood. This name I adopted invokes fear, intrigue and hope. with a spalsh of horror! However I am also a healer by trade, and at the same time my Voodoo and psychic energies make some fearful or hesitant. This name is very fitting. and it began just or the ghost tours but it stuck to me everywherre . I do have secret different ordained priesteess names! Oh It doesn’t hurt that my bloodline is connected to Queen  Elozabeth and then Queen, Mary I, also known as Bloody Mary too! and my dad's side is from the Carpathian mountains from Polish romani's

I am Collateral descendent to Queen Mary I (a.k.a. Bloody Mary) and a descendant of Robert the Bruce, Templar King, as well as the Stewarts of the time from my matriarchal lineage. I am first cousin to Shakesphere! i am  also 12th cousisn  once removedto Queen Elizabeth My family tree branched to New Orleans, this French territory, in the 1718  bringing along their Pict, British Scottish and French heritage and earlier in 1699

 

It seems even a little Native American  Ishak- Attakapa made it in through the Pointe Coupee, Plaquemine area of Louisiana when some of my ancestors moved after first landed  here in Louisiana. They later moved to the plantation areas in the now known as 'Cajun country' of White Castle,St Gabriel Donaldsonville, St. Gabriel, Iberville,  Ascension and Orleans Parish areas .​

BLOODLINE & EARLY LIFE

 

My great grandmother and great, great nanny and “Memi” lived on St. Anne between Rampart and Burgundy street late 1880’s. Just across the street from the famed Marie Laveau cottage. Memi knew her well. Nanny had five children who were all delivered at that home by a local midwife. Marie Laveau was a local midwife and she very well might have had a hand in birthing some of my ancestors. It may have been Marie Philomene Laveau or a grandaughter by that point in 1885 but Laveau's were involved.​ I am bloodline kin to the Laveau's sharing common French ancestors 10th great-grandparents coming here 1699 as first settlers.

Like many bourgeois who had a town house in the city and stayed in  New Orleans proper as the years passed,  some moving from dual country city life to their townhouses permanently

My grandma told me about Marie Laveau. She remembered her with awe and fear. She was only a little girl when her grandma told her, but she told the tales and passed them down to us. Grandma grew up and made voodoo dolls, gave us ritual baths with Florida water and made sure the bottoms of the trees were painted white. she talked about blueblood and cousins all around- did Marie know they were related ? Maybe?

that would be both Marie and my1st Creole ancestor explorers family here in1699 orignating from Normandy France through the Trepaniers 

 

Swamp Magic is New Orleans, and the Mississippi River is our mother and foremost I am her Avatar, her voice. I teach that we all have the potential to see with more than our eyes, hear with more than our ears, and part of my destiny is to help others to realize that potential. I believe in living in and exploring the uncharted waters found deep within the river of the heart and soul. Everything is an adventure of spirit and experience including all my tours, workshops and psychic services. There is no better place to discover spirits than right here in New Orleans where I, indeed, am your spirit guide.​

SWAMP MAGIC

I was born and raised Roman Catholic and my mother was a St. Joseph nun before she married my dad, so I come from a rich spiritual Catholic background. I also have many natural psyhics in my family and our prophetic dreams seem heriditary

 

 The Catholic Saints are still a very important part of my work and healings. The syncretism of Saints within Voodoo mysteries have been relevant here since the 1700's. The multi-cultural mix and racial diversity within Voodoo is also a unique part of New Orleans Voodoo - Here black and white together, along with local Native American contributions are historic and important factors to understand and honor.

 

I also teach voodoo, hoodoo and spirit connection of throughout the other side of the mirror in New Orleans, in books and  in over 2000 documentaries worldwide to enlighten and pass the magic of New Orleans Voodoo to all.​

 

Hollywood gives voodoo an evil twist, for evil sells! There have always been those in EVERY religion who let power corrupt them to the dark side. My job is to help balance the light & dark, to heal and to teach the truth. The sacred storyteller was known as the Griot in Africa, like the bard of the Celts, remember the power of sound is an ancient one and a large part of what I do for the living and the dead.​

 

-Bloody Mary

Eventually time help move them across the river to the Bayou Goula, White Castle and Plaquemines areas.around River Road.My Native American, French and Italian blood comes from both sides of the family: the Plaquemine Trosclair’s. Originally, “Troxler” from the European area of Alsace/Lorraine. They moved  to Louisiana in 1718, in the River parishes of St. James and Ascension. Commerce and trade up the river put their town houses in the French Quarter of New Orleans.

 

It is interesting that genealogical searches have revealed that both sides of my family had business connections or lived next door to each other since the 1700's!​

 

 

 

 

theres a lot of Irish, English, ancient Dalriadan-Scottish and My Fathers lineage added Eastern Eurpean to the brew. Polish Gypsy and a bit of Eastern Euro Carpathian  Mountain  magic trickles down. (so some vampires too) and the G word slips in.. My Great grandfather was from Lutocin is a village in east-central Poland "Carpathian Gypsy" or Bergitka Roma is a recognized Romani ethnic subgroup in Poland, primarily living in the southern  near the Carpathian Mountains.

New Orleans whole history changed when the turn of the twentieth century neared. a mass exodus and a New Orleans Voodoo Diaspora  fled.. I understand even more , in part, to the voices from the past spirits whispering in my ear. The history taught in most American schools do not shed the light on the entireity of the Civil War. Even many of the New Orleans history books were written from the American only viewpoint.​ Slavery is always oppression no matter how you slice it and an entire Creole culture suffered in the wake. We are still seeing the reprocussions of hate and racial injustice today. New Orleans had many African Creole historic "firsts"  and are a proud peoples. Black lives matter, Our muti-cultural gumbo town matters, All races here are proud of the European Latin Catholic, French and Afro Carribean heritage.

 Along the way I became one with swamp magic, trees and nature spirits that were whispering in my ear. A bit of plantation voodoo and swamp monsters  came out to play. My mother was a St. Joseph nun before she married my dad. So I came from a very  Catholic background, yet Voodoo was infused with Folk CatholIcism here and in many of our customs. Even as a child, I passed ghost stories along in the night to my friends. We used our New Orleans cemeteries as playgrounds as we watched our parents shed a tear as they tended to the tombs .

By the time I was in high school, all thesespirits came knocking regularly on my bedroom door and I was leading ghost hunts for the neighborhood gang, ironically to some of the same places I take people to today!

 During my college years I escaped to New York and escorted many back here to the hidden side of my spirited home and, after many careers in the public eye I found my true calling was here  The spirit world and New Orleans is home.​​

As a small child I saw spirits, I had dreams that were more than just dreams. Astral travel was part of my life before I knew the words to describe it. The power of prayer produced results and many situations seemed to take care of themselves naturally with simple thoughts. The overload of spirit activity especially after escaping New Orleans had, at some points, got so intense that I needed to sever communication with spirits, or so i thought; What I really need to so was to set boundaries. It seemed safer to try to stop the overload but ... I closed one door, only to open another. Then I focused on energy healing, folk magic, or hoodoo, and psychic development.​

BECOMING BLOODY MARY

I also pursued a fully expressed fun, physical life that college had to offer. which I had already expessed quite well in my home town (LOL)

 

My New Orleans  homecoming was a barrage of messages and a bevy of ghosts welcoming my return, with Voodoo Spirits calling the loudest. Though, I had known about voodoo since I was a small child, I had not truly  initiated until I returned home. Adjustments and learning on how to filter and fine tune my psychic abilities allowed my mediumship to grow. Now I had a small psychic baby and dived directly into studies and apprenticeship to raise him right and bring out to his full potential. 

 We did more intense herbal studies to heal, more trance sessions so we could journey together, and more Ancestral counseling commenced so the family knowledge could be a part of it all. My son Jagger and I learned much together.​​ This proved a slow but steady process. I have had many apprenticeships from various trainers, priestesses and priests from many paths. Soon I too, became the teacher.

 

Balance and grounding are a necessity; this is one important thing I teach. It is much easier to open the door to our innate psychic abilities than to control and balance it all.

•  •  •​

To walk both sides of the veil is a tightrope act that requires great skill and divine grace, I was blessed to be granted just that.

 

Speaking with the spirits is a natural gift, and I am privileged to share teachings and messages received to you in tours, workshops, ceremonies and psychic healing sessions.​

I also guest lecture at Tunlane and Loyola Univesiety, It is interesteing theta  the many classes I present to interdisoplinarian curriculum- Voodoo is exactly that!

I also guest lecture at Tulane University and Loyola. It is interesting that many of classes to which I have spoken are the interdisciplinary curriculum - Voodoo is exactly that. I am an initiated Haitian Voodoo Priestess (mambo) from my Haitian Papa Edgar and Mamno Sallie Ann Glassman. I'm a New Orleans Voodoo Queen, handed down from Queen Margret and Queeen Rose beifore her..w the bloodline of Laveau to boost me through , I have  title by both state and by the spirit to perform weddings, baptisms, funerals and everything in between.

My previous Queen did not have  children that followed in her footsteps and no daughters it was arranged iby spirit vision initiation and flesh follwed by a transfer of power so hold her asson and the curtain! There can be a new  special spirit reawakening now, one that existed when we mixed and worked together and traded. My job is to bring that back, to soothe hate, to heal through stories, to teach respect of the ancestors and the importance of redeeming our past. Never has this been more important than right now  It has to be!

Meet Bloody Mary

 

However, with  these family remembrances of early 20th century issues and newly acquired academic knowledge of the Creole plight, I understand more of the big picture.

 

These things had a profound effect on the history of New Orleans, cultural development and even Voodoo — and not just in the way you might think. For example: Did you know Americans even made the language of French illegal to speak here in the late 19th and early 20th century?​
