Description

It begins with bones. Thousands of them. Arranged in sacred, unsettling patterns beneath a Roman church. The Capuchin Crypt isn’t just a burial site — it’s a message carved in human remains.

Your journey starts here, in one of Rome’s most haunting spaces. Led by expert storytellers, you’ll step inside a chapel where over 3,500 skeletons line the walls — a chilling meditation on mortality, memory, and faith.

Then, emerge into the darkening streets of Rome’s historic center. As the city shifts toward night, your guide will lead you through real tragedies, strange legends, and ghostly echoes still clinging to the stones.

Hear the tale of a love so doomed it’s said to echo near the Trevi Fountain. Discover a noblewoman’s handprint — said to appear after her death. Uncover a ghost story tied to an old butcher’s shop near the Pantheon. And stand where a wartime massacre left a wound Rome never forgot.

This isn’t a gimmick tour. No costumes. No theatrics. Just true stories, eerie corners, and unforgettable history — all brought to life by expert guides who blend insight with just the right amount of chill.
