'Twas the night before beaujolais nouveau, shadows lurked along the back streets of Mons Martis, the locals were avoiding the throngs of tourists on the main drag, and adventurers discovered hidden treats on the hill.

Le soir d’Halloween dernier, vous nous avez aidés à défendre Paris contre une invasion de mort-vivants. Bien que nous ayons cru avoir éliminé tous les zombies nous en avons finalement noté des apparitions dans certains lieux cette année. Nous vous avons de nouveau besoin de vous et vos coéquipiers pour tenter de trouver une solution définitive à cette invasion en cherchant dans Paris et en résolvant toutes les énigmes

Ravenchase France détient aujourd'hui des informations très secrètes concernant un laboratoire appartenant au gouvernement, ou les choses ne se serai apparemment pas passées comme prévues... Serez-vous en mesure de localiser ce laboratoire ? Une récompense sera attribuée aux équipes de fins limiers qui auront l'intelligence et l'intrépidité nécessaire pour résoudre les énigmes et apporter enfin une réponse à certains phénomènes inexpliqués.

Le point de rassemblement sera envoyé aux agents du Comité de Recherche du Laboratoire quelques jours avant l’invasion. Pour recevoir votre accréditation et les informations importantes, vous devez vous inscrire avant le 29 octobre. Rassemblez vos amis, inscrivez-vous et sauvez finalement notre ville!

Pour vous inscrire et en savoir plus, rendez-vous sur le site http://undeadinvasion.com.

Inscrivez-vous dès maintenant, avant qu’il soit trop tard…

Last Halloween Eve many of you helped us defend Paris against hordes of zombies. Although we believed at the time that we had eliminated all of the existing zombies, there have been continued sightings over the past year. We need you and your teammates to roam the city solve the clues and find the location of a laboratory where it is thought that unsuspecting citizens and visitors of the city of light are being turned into zombies.

This is a global event with other zombie invasions being resisted on the same night in major cities around the world; from Honolulu to New York to Nashville, few cities are safe. Ravenchase France has been armed with previously undisclosed information regarding an hidden government run laboratory where things may not be going exactly as the researchers planned….. Should we be successful in locating the laboratory, prizes will be awarded to those teams of intrepid souls who maintain their wits as they translate seemingly unrelated information into results.

The rally point will be sent to registered agents of the Laboratory Search Committee a few days in advance of the invasion. To receive your credentials and other important information you must register no later than October 29th. Gather your friends, get registered, and save our city for good!

To register and learn more, go to http://undeadinvasion.com

Register now, before it’s too late!

Come and discover THE BEST and only AUTHENTIC Mexican restaurant in Paris. And who better to host the evening than PUA's very own Mexican, Ricco!

This friendly restaurant in the heart of Paris offers a wide variety of traditional Mexican food and a very convivial ambiance. Costs range from 30-40 euros for a three course meal. As per usual everyone pays individually. The range of drinks is also very impressive, including excellent tequilas and margaritas, a good wine list and Mexican beers.

Although I will be attending the dinner, Ricco is hosting the event and will be more than happy throughout the evening to provide some interesting facts about his beloved Chihuahua (the city ) and Mexican food.

In the meantime if you have any questions then don't hesitate to contact us.

Please do NOT rspv unless you will attend, so that as many as possible can come...and be on time, as we leave on time.

Come join us to learn about the local French urban art movement in Paris.

Let us take you on an informative walk of about 1.5-2 hours around the Latin Quarter to take a look at the work of about 8 different street artists. If you've ever wondered about local French urban art, or the underground street art movement in Paris, then this walk is for you. We'll point out the different works, tell you who did them, what their style and motto is, and any other tid-bits we know.

This is an informal walk, we won't be handing out a PhD thesis...but we know a bit about each of these artists and who they are, and we're happy to share that. We can get lunch after to discuss urban art in general.

As with all of our events...again...PLEASE don't RSVP unless you plan to attend. If you find you can't attend then be sure to update your RSVP so that someone else can have your spot...and please be sure to arrive on time so that we don't have to wait too long.

Hello all PUA members,

Tomorrow (Saturday) is our annual charity event. 100% of all funds collected during this event are donated to charity!

See the event details: The PUA Gala-Ball - Dance, Have Fun…

There will be a bachelor and bachelorette auction. Come on down and bid on a stylish lady or gentlemen for your next date...and help charity at the same time!

Here are some answers about this for those interested...


Don't be shy...come on down and bid. :) It will be loads of fun.
Bidding starts at 5 euros...and goes to...?
The auction will be in French and English (two presenters working together).
If you bid and win, you get to meet and greet them, and you then take them out on a date in the next couple of weeks. You pay. The date must be in a public place unless they agree to something different with you.
Bring cash...we do not have a credit-card machine. Though, if for some reason the bidding went really high we would figure something out as we don't expect people to carry 100's of euros around.
The auction will begin about 10:30-10:45pm. After the quiz. The party starts at 8pm though...so come on down sooner, and meet the bachelors and bachelorettes.
Yes...we mean it...100% of all money obtained (at the door to enter, for drinks, the auction) goes to charity. See our fundraising page here.
Just bring what you're willing to donate/bid, and only bid to that amount. This way you don't go over your budget.


Who will our fabulous bachelors and bachelorettes be?
