The hell cafe called Cabaret de l'Enfer existed in Paris in the 1890s.
It was a Gothic nightclub where people drank on coffins and served libations, named after diseases, by monks and funeral attendees.
The walls, depicting death and destruction (is that not what the devil stands for?), were decorated with skulls and bones, skeletons in grotesque attitudes, battle-pictures, and guillotines in action.
This venue is no more open today.
