Skeletons in the Closet

EP 98

Are there real skeletons…or just secrets to be buried? We’ll let you decide.

Harrison Graham (AKA Marty) was known for being a nice guy. He was a drug dealer, and he did turn his apartment into a drug den…but everyone always commented how he was just a regular guy. He paid his rent on time, he played basketball with the neighborhood kids, and he carried around a Cookie Monster puppet that he would entertain the younger kids with. So, maybe a little odd, but no violent tendencies. Until, police are asked to check in on his apartment due to a foul odor; and no one was prepared for what they found.

The Paris Catacombs are now a famous tourist attraction and macabre bucket list destination, but the making of them started in an unsettling way. While using the limestone underneath the city to create more buildings on top- this led to sinkholes. To make up for this, skeletons were taken from the old cemetery to help “build” a structure underneath the city. After a few years, the structure had become more strategically stacked and has become a huge attraction for those wanting to see the dark underground and maybe share a drink with the dead.
