The Catacombs of Paris were designed to solve two problems were Paris was going through at the time. One, there were two many dead bodies that needed to be buried and no more cemetery space for them. Two, there were mines underneath the city take were uncharted and in cases caused architectural damage. The initial solution of making a body hill failed, which was the last straw. The King ordered the bodies to be moved into the catacombs.

The catacombs are open to public viewing, although much of it in unknown by the government. It's more known by urban explorers, who have mapped out. There are pools down there where you can swim and at one point, a fully stocked bar and movie theater was fond there. At another point, it was used to break into a wine cellar.

There are rumors that the catacombs are haunted, but mostly considered to be rumors.

Takeaway: Dead people are suppose to be underground. Always have a catacomb buddy.
