Coming October 31, 2015. Those afraid of ghosts need not apply! Airbnb, that online marketplace for listing and booking accommodations around the world, is running a contest for 2 lucky people to spend the night, Halloween night no less!, in the Paris Catacombs! Not familiar with the Catacombs? Imagine a series of caverns and tunnels below the city streets of Paris, add an underground cemetery holding the remains of about six million people, throw in a dash of displays made out of skulls and bones, and you have the ultimate Halloween adventure. All you have to do is submit a 100-word story (in English or French) explaining why you are brave enough to sleep in the Catacombs. Winners get a private visit to the Catacombs with its curator, a private dinner for two with a concert in your ghoulish suite, breakfast and round trip airfare to Paris. Hurry, you only have until October 20th to submit your creative story for a chance at this incredibly unique Halloween experience!
