What Lies Beneath?

Since the Olympic Summer Games have now ended in Paris, France, let’s take a peek below the surface and see what is not at ground level.

The French had been mining limestone for decades. In 1774, a massive sinkhole in the Rue de l’Enfer (Road to Hell) engulfed houses, carts, and people, who fell 84 feet to their death.

Multiple sinkholes over the next few years caused panic and outrage. In response, King Louis XVI created the Inspection Generale de Carrieres, or IGC in 1777 to map out and maintain quarries of limestone that was used for some of the city’s most iconic buildings such as The Louvre and Notre Dame.

the largest burial gound known as Holy Innocents’ Cemetery, which had been in continuous use for 500 years.

In December of 1785, workers began exhuming bodies from Holy Innocents’ at night and

carting them by torchlight to their new resting place: the city’s catacombs. It was a marriage of convenience with the vast underground mines offering a local and more sanitary storage solution.

With the outbreak of the French Revolution on May 5, 1789, bodies began to pile up during the Reign of Terror and the newly deceased were being directly buried in the catacombs, gaining a new reputation as “The Empire of the Dead.”

The catacombs are filled with the bones of over six million bodies being shaped into archways, tunnels, and walls.

Take a tour of the macabre Paris catacombs if you ever get an opportunity to vacation in a city that offers many sights to take in. And don’t forget to #QUESTIONEVERYTHING

One woman has a secret, while the other is on a mission to reveal it before thousands of lives are lost. In the shadows, mission controllers at the U.S. CIA and French DGSE must put differences aside, as difficult as it may be, and work together to avert potential disaster before it is too late.”

Next and from HBO it’s FANTASMAS. “From Writer, director and comedian Julio Torres spins a fantastical sixpart tale depicting his loss of a gold oyster earring. In his search to find the precious object, Julio reflects on the offbeat characters he encounters in introspective, often eerie, and always comedic vignettes set in a dreamy, alternate version of New York City; a kaleidoscope of color and surrealism, “Fantasmas” is a series that weaves together stories of people looking for meaning, purpose and connection in an increasingly isolating world.: Moving on, still riding high from Apple TV+ is DARK MATTER, “Professor Jason Dessen is abducted into an
