Maison Mantin
John Thompson
Have any DL'ers ever been to this house?
Some unusual tidbits:
- The owner was described as a bachelor and man of leisure. MARY!
- It sat sealed and empty for 100 years before being restored in line with his original wish (that it become a museum)

Cool! Thanks for sharing that, OP. Great story and I'd visit if I could.

Just saw it in my Internet crawls tonight. Very fascinating, indeed!

it might have been fun if they just controlled the mold and opened it all decayed and spidery.
