Itinerary
Meet your guide at the most beautiful and mysterious bridge of Rome. Hard to imagine that this amazing place was a scene of bloody executions.
Ancient, narrow, dark, SCARY. These are the best words to describe this ancient street.
Stop at a haunted square, where a couple of professional poisoners helped hundreds of women kill their husbands.
Walk down an ancient street built to allow the Pope to visit his mistresses in peace.
Stop at the head church of the brotherhood of Death. This is the place where thousands of bodies collected from the streets of Rome were buried.
The exact place from which John Paul Getty III was kidnapped in the 1970s, and still haunted by his ghost.
Built by one of the filthiest families of Rome, Piazza Farnese and the palace are breathtakingly dark.
A place where thousands of witches and heretics had been burned alive. Meet a ghost or two, if you're unlucky...

Nice guy, interesting history, but big group in noisy neighborhood with zero ghosts or scary stories.
This was a very cool experience! Our guide took us to great spots and told the stories in very captivating ways. We even got to use these ghost tools as a hands on experience. Not a lot of walking, very nice. Thank you
Rebecca was a knowledgeable and engaging guide. My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed this tour
Shopping near Trevi is amazing. I've been there 11 times and this year will be 12. Stay at Harry's Bar Trevi. Best 5 star next to Trevi
This walk is amazing. Our gide, Karin told excitingly gruesome stories and showed us spots in Rome, which otherwise we would not notice.
The guide was very informative and excited to share stories. We loved the history. We enjoyed our experience!
We have done haunted tours in other cities and they are hit-or-miss. This was definitely a hit! Our guide, Ali, was very informative and engaging. Whether you believe in paranormal things or not - a good haunted tour should still be exciting with historical information and macabre stories. This tour definitely fit the bill. Totally recommend for anyone who enjoys spooky stories and unique historical anecdotes. From a practical standpoint, the tour was easy to find, great communication from the company and guide, and the walk was very doable. Thanks, Ali - we had a fantastic time!!
Myself and my fiancée loved this! We made the booking at the last minute whilst waiting for our flight and we are so glad that we did. We were greeted by Karen and informed that we were the only ones on this tour which was a really positive surprise for us, normally tours cancel if the experience is not filled! Karen was a great storyteller and took us on an enjoyable walking tour across some locations and had either an interesting piece of history or horror to divulge, but all of it linking to each other! This experience is great for those who love history, walking, and morbid tales of the dead. It was one of two major highlights of the trip for us and we would love to do it again!
Fun and informative good pace goes to different places around the city and learns about people who died in the area
Karen was hands down the BEST tour guide we’ve had so far, truly deserving of the highest recommendation! From the moment we met her, she was kind, caring, and incredibly engaging. She didn’t just guide us through the haunted side of Rome, she brought every story to life in such a fun and captivating way. What really stood out was how helpful she was beyond the tour itself. Karen happily shared tips, history, and recommendations about all of Rome, not just the haunted spots, which made the whole experience even more valuable. If you’re lucky enough to get Karen as your guide, you’re in for an unforgettable night. Absolutely loved every second!
