Episode 30: Stop! Here is the Empire of Death

Spooky season is back, and Rae and Andi plunge into Paris’s strangest underworld—the catacombs—where shadowy tunnels, dripping ceilings, and endless walls of bones await. Andi, who grew up steps from the entrance, reveals how collapsing quarries and a burial crisis forged this vast subterranean ossuary. It’s history, eerie atmosphere, and pure October shivers for anyone who loves a little darkness with their flannel.

The catacombs movie theater evidence. And info about its use during WWII.
