Are you ready to discover the darker side of Rome? This Rome Ghost Tour will take you through the most sinister spots of the Eternal City, where executions and restless presences intertwine in ancient alleys and squares. Starting from Castel Sant'Angelo, each stop on our group tour will delve into macabre stories that only those brave enough to venture into Rome at night can uncover. Prepare yourself: once you embark on this journey, you won’t return home without having encountered at least one restless soul.

Our journey into the dark heart of Rome begins at Castel Sant'Angelo, a place steeped in mystery and history. With your exceptional guide, you’ll discover how public executions were once carried out here, with prisoners led to a cruel fate within the castle's thick walls. Castel Sant'Angelo is not merely a fortress; it stands as a symbol of papal power and the ruthless punishments that were dispensed here. Just in front of us lies the atmospheric Ponte degli Angeli, spanning the Tiber with a breathtaking yet ominous view, as the tormented souls of the condemned seem to linger in the air, ready to appear on the darkest nights. This Rome at Night Tour will immerse you in the past like no other nighttime tour in the city, introducing you to figures such as the infamous Mastro Titta, the most feared executioner of papal Rome, who carried out over 500 executions. Participants on this tour can almost feel the chilling touch of the executioner and hear untold stories that still haunt the streets of this ancient city.

Next, dive into the lively Campo de' Fiori, a bustling square today, but once one of the most feared places in Rome. Here, as night fell, public executions took place, drawing crowds of spectators and filling the air with the acrid smell of burning flesh and the haunting cries of the condemned. At the center, the statue of Giordano Bruno, burned alive for his ideas, stands as a silent warning over the square. This Dark Rome Tour will show you a side of the city that few dare to imagine, bringing you to where the souls of the condemned are said to still wander, especially on moonlit nights.

Venture into Rome's silent streets, passing through Vicolo del Gallo, a place dense with history and dark legends. This Rome Ghost Tour grows darker from here on, as you learn of the spirit of Vannozza Cattanei, mistress of Pope Alexander VI and mother to some of the most controversial members of the Borgia family. A powerful and mysterious figure of the Renaissance, Vannozza left behind a trail of unease and whispered rumors that still seem to echo on the quietest nights. At the end of the alley, the Church of Santa Maria in Monserrato holds her secrets, seeming to welcome her restless soul in an atmosphere heavy with foreboding.

Your Rome at Night Tour will finally bring you to Piazza Navona, one of the most fascinating yet unsettling places in Rome. Here, among Bernini's baroque fountains and Borromini's church, the spirits of two women are said to roam: La Pimpaccia and Costanza Conti de Cupis. La Pimpaccia, known for her scandalous life and ties to power, is remembered as a feared figure in 17th-century Rome; her restless spirit is said to still hover around the buildings in the square, like a shadow unable to find peace. At the same time, legend has it that Costanza Conti de Cupis, whose life was marked by intrigue and her beauty, continues to haunt the area with her presence. Thus, Piazza Navona becomes the epicenter of stories of love, power, and death, a perfect grand finale for this Rome Ghost Tour, where participants can listen to the legends of two women who have yet to leave the world of the living.

This Dark Rome Tour is a journey through the darker and hidden sides of the city, where restless souls and stories of death resurface from centuries past.
