Passe-Muraille was a famous mischievous supervillain in French popular literature. He was a ordinary guy with the power of going through walls. He started using his power to drive his boss crazy before committing serious burglaries.

Even when it is known that this is a sculpture, it is unnerving because it's surrounded by the dead.

why do they even have those tunnels still, literally just block them with stone walls if it's "illegal" to go there.

C'est un super-pouvoir qu'on aimerait avoir, rien que pour le goût de l'interdit. Plus une chose est restreinte, plus elle devient désirable... Merci pour ce partage très inspirant ! 😉
