• Castel Sant’Angelo - Originally constructed as Emperor Hadrian’s mausoleum, Castel Sant’Angelo in Rome later became a fortress, papal residence, and prison. Its impressive cylindrical design and the rooftop statue of the Archangel Michael make it one of Rome’s most iconic landmarks along the Tiber River.
• St. Angelo Bridge - Ponte Sant’Angelo spans the Tiber like a bridge between worlds, with ten angelic statues carved by Bernini and his students standing guard, each holding symbols of Christ’s suffering. At night, shadows cloak the angels’ faces, their expressions both solemn and haunting, as if safeguarding the secrets of souls that once crossed into the fortress beyond—Castel Sant’Angelo, a place of refuge, power, and whispered mysteries.
• Via Paola - The residence of Rome’s kindest executioner.
• Arco Dei Banchi - Known as the Haunted Arch, it is the prayer site for Rome’s most controversial exorcist.
• Largo Ottavio Tassoni, 319 - The home of the 16th-century artistic genius Benvenuto Cellini, who, regrettably, was more infamous as a rapist and murderer.
• Vicolo della Moretta - The haunted residence of the witch Giulia Tofana, and the tales of the holy inquisition.
• Via di Monserrato - Corte Savella, the only prison in Rome permitted to execute convicts within its walls - the location where Beatrice Cenci was tortured before her execution.
• Via Giulia - Via Giulia is a charming, historic street in Rome, designed by Bramante in the early 16th century for Pope Julius II, and lined with Renaissance palaces, ivy-covered facades, and hidden courtyards. Known for its serene elegance, it captures the allure of old Rome and was once a central artery of the city’s aristocratic life.
• Chiesa di Santa Maria dell’Orazione e Morte - Santa Maria dell’Orazione e Morte is a chilling Baroque church in Rome, built by a secretive confraternity dedicated to retrieving and burying abandoned corpses. Its shadowy interior is filled with skulls, bones, and eerie symbols of death, creating an atmosphere where the line between the living and the dead feels unsettlingly thin.
• Fontana del Mascherone - Fontana del Mascherone is an eerie Baroque fountain on Via Giulia in Rome, featuring a massive stone mask that mysteriously spouts water from its grimacing mouth. This is the crime scene where John Paul Getty III was kidnapped.
• Campo de’ Fiori - Campo de’ Fiori is a vibrant, historic square in Rome, famous for its bustling morning market filled with colorful produce, flowers, and local goods. By night, the piazza transforms, surrounded by bars and restaurants, while the shadow of Giordano Bruno’s statue serves as a reminder of the square’s darker past as a site of executions during the Inquisition.
