This week, we spill the dirt on the Paris catacombs history and the miles of underground tunnels running through the modern day city in France.

We'll cover questions like, why were the Paris catacombs built? How many bodies are in the catacombs? Where were the Paris plague burial sites in 18th century French history?

We also tell tales of bodies spilling through walls, bones stacked floor to ceiling and sneaking into the off limits section of the tunnels.

Grab a shovel and a torch as we divulge the real story of the Paris catacombs, explore the empire of the dead and the dark tourism of Paris in this episode of The Darkives.

Serious history. Told not so seriously.
