Free Tour of the Dark Side of Paris.

We’ll begin our journey in front of the Palais de Justice, next to the gates of the city's old prison—gates that haunted the nightmares of many Parisians during Robespierre's Reign of Terror.

In front of the cathedral’s walls, we’ll hear the echoes of the curse the last Templar cast upon the Capetian dynasty. Leaving behind the grim spectacle of his execution, we’ll uncover the secrets Victor Hugo immortalized in his masterpiece, Notre Dame de Paris.

As we stroll down the street of Paris’ most infamous killers, we’ll learn about their gruesome trade and their fitting fate.

Finally, we’ll recount the massacre of innocents (and not-so-innocents) that turned the river red with blood as the bells tolled, and delve into the macabre and morbid tastes of 19th-century Parisian society.

Join us to uncover the chilling stories hidden in the heart of the City of Light!
