To celebrate Halloween I’ve added an extra page on the Paris Catacombs to my website.  The main page deals with the history of the catacombs, the new one has a more modern slant, with a story about the cataphiles, those who venture into the forbidden tunnels of the catacombs, alone or in packs.  There are solitary artists, cinema goers, and rave attendees.

Here is a sample of the beautiful photographs and art on the page.

Also in the Catacombs Today page, you’ll see the art of the cataphiles, both fabulous and funky.

This image by Jérȏme Bon has been intensified for effect.
