Not a path I would like to walk by myself!

I have walked in it, alone at night, no lights, just my head light, and stopped to rest on the wall. Then I found out i was resting on skulls and bones. Totally terrifying! But the next step was more terrifying as we had a baptism ceremony for students of the university. They would lift you upside down and put your head in a dirty water fountain while the ceremony committee would watch you drown..

I bet it was! I'm not easily spooked but yeah, that would do it.

Yikes. Sounds like hazing!

Yes, definitely sounds like hazing. Glad you survived it!

We need a nail-biting smiley in that, what's it called, quick row!

When all was over, at around 3.00 am I left from the visitors exit, in Denfert Rosserau square, a big transit hub. No metro or bus in the night, and no taxi was stopping, as I was wet, covered in mud. I had to cross half of Paris on foot to go home...

That must have been a long walk - luckily it was night so nobody saw you!
