Le Manoir de Paris has just opened its doors to the mysteries of the capital.

Welcomed by monsters and the living dead, we were already shivering as we entered the Manor. But that was nothing compared to what was to come!

A first-of-its-kind concept in France, this new animation site brings thirteen Parisian legends to life in the very heart of the City of Light. Halfway between a museum and an amusement park, this haunted mansion covers two levels and almost 1,000 m2 of interactive space, inviting visitors to experience the thrills and spills of history. An original leisure destination for Parisians and tourists who love thrills and legends.

Le Manoir de Paris brings legends to life
Paris has always seduced and fascinated by its mystery. A city of light, a city of shadows and secrets. Its streets, houses and parks are teeming with stories. Le Manoir de Paris invites you to step through the looking glass, to discover this cartography of legends, to explore the mysteries of Paris in the footsteps of Victor Hugo and Alexandre Dumas.
Housed in the prestigious setting of a listed historic monument, just a few hundred meters from the Gare de l’Est station, it brings back to life some of the stories that haunt the memory of the capital: Quasimodo and Notre-Dame; the ghost of the opera house; the pies of the bloodthirsty baker… in a setting inspired by reality, with the support of sophisticated engineering and the complicity of professional actors.

A first-of-its-kind museum in France.
This new type of haunted house is a veritable living museum. It invites visitors to walk at their own pace through the reconstructed scenes of Parisian legends. It invites them to share emotions and experiences with family and friends. The visitor is invited to write the story, becoming the hero through interactivity.
A new kind of museum, the Manoir de Paris takes the concept of haunted houses found in the USA and adapts it to French culture and sensibility. Its aim is to bring back to life the mysterious Paris, where history meets legend and legend meets history. And thus contribute to the renown of the City of Light and its mysteries…

An exciting new site in the heart of the capital, waiting to be discovered!
Open Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, from 3pm to 8pm. Ages 10 and up. Prices: 20 euros – 18 euros (students, unemployed)
L’Enfer is located at 18, rue du Paradis – 75010 Paris.
