Grande Guingol

Grande Guingol, the Original Theatre of the Vampires...

When we think of Vampires in Paris we first think of the Theatre of the Vampires from Anne Rice's novels the Vampire Chronicles.   However there was a theatre behind the scenes, one which you would not realize it but not only inspired the Theatre of the Vampires, but also started the entire horror genre. 

This was Theatre Grand Guingol?
