WORDLESS WEDNESDAY

Le Cercueil, (the Coffin) is a legendary bar 15 meters from Brussels' Grand-Place, it has celebrated its 50th anniversary. I think I was 20 when I went there with friends for the first time. It is very special and has a mysterious atmosphere. Coffin tables, skeletons, framed photos and skull-shaped mugs create a unique, macabre and cosy atmosphere.

The drinks also have special names like "Demon's sperm, supreme of the corpse, Elixir of the Virgin, velvet of the Devil etc"

 The jugs are skulls.

The cozy corners where you sit and enjoy your Belgian beer in a skull.

  6. Wow, that's a really different place. I've only been to the Roi d'Espagne, the place with the stuffed horse.

  7. Oh my goodness. How awful, but I can see how the young would appreciate the macabre. There is a trend it seems to such things in movies and books, so why not bars?
    Not my scene though.
