Description
Rome by day is all beauty and history. Rome by night? That’s when things get interesting. On this after-hours ghost tour, you’ll leave the crowds behind and step into a version of the city shaped by dark secrets, untimely deaths, and stories that never quite ended. With your interactive Ghost Hunter Kit in hand, you’ll learn how to spot the signs of spirits said to still linger in the Eternal City. You’ll follow a local guide on a haunted trail through the historic centre, where you'll walk past a chapel filled with human bones, across a bridge once lined with corpses, and into corners of Rome where the past feels uncomfortably present. Expect chilling tales of murder, betrayal, and execution. Brought to life through vivid storytelling and eerie visual recreations, these stories are far more than just history… they’re the kind that stay with you. Make it through the night, and you’ll earn a Certificate of Survival, if you make survive of course.

Campo De' Fiori
We begin in one of Rome's most famous piazzas, Campo de' Fiori. Now known for its lively bars and gastronomic scene, it was once an execution site making it the perfect place to start our spooky adventure!
Piazza Farnese
Hear about the lavish parties that were hosted in this square by the wealthy elite and learn the legend of its secret passageway.
Several madonelles or “little madonnas' decorate our route and we’ll learn about how they once worked to stop crime.
Ponte Sisto
Ponte Sisto is not only famous for being the oldest bridge in Rome, it also has a gruesome past that involved tragic accidents, power struggles, theft and of course, suspicious deaths.
Fontana del Mascherone
You’re not supposed to drink from the fountains in Rome but if you dare drink from this one, it will have deadly consequences.
Chiesa di Santa Maria dell'Orazione e Morte
This 17th century church is made from human bones and reminds visitors that death is closer than we think.
This is one of the most haunted apartment blocks in the city and was once the site of one the worst prison in Rome’s history.
Chiesa di Santa Maria in Monserrato degli Spagnoli
This Spanish church in the heart of Rome has a scandalous story worthy of a telenovela.

Fun niche history out of the heat!
A great add on to my Rome experience and nice to do a walking tour at night with more of a niche historical spin. My guide was well informed & friendly. She had many fun facts about the buildings we walked through and even gave us a few “spot the” activities
