Frequently asked questions

Is it scary / appropriate for kids?

It’s spooky, but not horror-movie level. There are dark stories, ghostly themes, foggy illusions—but it might be best for teens and older kids who enjoy that kind of stuff. Little kids may find it a bit intense at night.

What’s the story here?

 You’ve cast a spell to see Turin’s past… but it backfired. Now you’re stuck between worlds, walking through foggy streets where people see you as a shadow. You’ve got to solve arcane puzzles, explore hidden corners, and find a way back to normal before the veil consumes you.

Who is this for?

Folks who like mystery + magic, couples wanting something atmospheric, friends who enjoy solving riddles together, and tourists craving a spooky twist on sightseeing.

How long does this take and how much walking is involved?

Expect between 71-101 minutes, about 4.9 km, or ~6,440 steps. Enough distance to feel like you've traveled through Turin’s layers of mystery without tiring out completely.

Is this good for an evening outing / date?

Definitely. Dusk or night turns Turin’s streets into something magical—shadows, lights, quieter squares. Perfect for holding hands, sharing whispers, and soaking the vibe.

Is this a real ghost tour of Turin?
It is a fictional dark story set in Turin. It does not promise paranormal encounters or a guided history tour.
Is this an escape room?
No. You solve puzzles outdoors along a city route, not inside a locked room.
How many tickets does our group need?
This classic quest sells access per device and player. Each person who wants to solve clues on their own phone needs their own access.
