About this listen

In 19th-century Paris, death became a public spectacle. The city’s morgue drew massive crowds—not for mourning, but for curiosity. Behind glass walls, the unclaimed dead were displayed like exhibits, turning tragedy into entertainment. In this episode of The House Red, we step inside the Paris Morgue to uncover how it became one of the city’s strangest and most haunting attractions.
