Description
This Halloween, step into the eerie shadows of Rome and join us for a chilling online tour through the city’s most haunted corners. Led by an expert archaeologist and historian, you’ll uncover the chilling tales of spirits that still linger in the streets, palaces, and squares of this ancient city. We’ll visit Castel Sant’Angelo, where the ghost of Beatrice Cenci is said to appear, tragically holding her head—unfairly severed—following her execution centuries ago. You’ll hear about the creepy spectral hands that sometimes reach out from a window in Piazza Navona, and the ghostly chariot of Donna Olimpia, which races through the streets each year on the anniversary of Pope Innocent X’s death. But that’s not all—this tour will also guide you through places tied to death and the ancient cults surrounding it in Rome, offering a truly spooky experience for those in search of more than just thrills. Whether you’re fascinated by macabre history or just looking for a Halloween adventure off the beaten path, this journey through Rome’s ghostly past will leave you both spooked and spellbound. Join us for an unforgettable Halloween tour, where death, mystery, and spirits are part of the story of the Eternal City!

Professional Tour Guide

Alba S.
Ciao! I'm Alba, a Roman archaeologist and licensed tour guide. Even though I'm Italian through and through, I've spent quite a bit of time living on the East Coast of the US and in England. After snagging a BA in Conservation of Cultural Heritage and not one, but two MAs in Archaeology and History of Architecture, I went all out and got my Ph.D. in Archaeology back in 2015. But you know what? I quickly realized that I'm more into storytelling than hardcore research. So, I ditched the academic life and dove headfirst into guiding tours and educating folks in museums all across central Italy. I'm all about uncovering the hidden gems of Rome and the surrounding areas in Lazio. Sure, the Colosseum and Trevi Fountain are cool, but there's so much more to see! So, join me for some passionate dives into the Great Beauty of Rome. Let's explore its fascinating history and art scene together!
