About this quest

You’ve always known you were different. Since childhood, you’ve heard the whispers of the dead—victims of untold tragedies, desperate to be heard. Over time, the voices faded… until now. 

It’s September 14th. You’ve just arrived in Florence for a relaxing holiday. But as you gaze at the Palazzo Vecchio from your hotel window, a knock at the door pulls you back into a world you thought you’d left behind.

This chilling quest takes you deep into Florence’s shadowy past. Solve real-world puzzles, follow ghostly clues, and explore hidden corners of the city where murder, memory, and mystery intertwine. 

This walking adventure is best experienced with friends or family—and once you begin, there’s no turning back. Will you face what lies beyond the door?

Highlights

  • Discover the real story of the so-called Monster of Florence

  • Visit the murder scenes while you follow clues on you phone

  • Explore the haunted stories of Piazza della Signoria, Palazzo Vecchio and others

The mission: Your story in Florence

GRAPHIC DESCRIPTIONS OF MURDERS (+18)

Since you were a child, you knew you were special, as you had an extraordinary gift that your family tried to keep secret in order to protect you.

You could see and hear people who had died in mysterious circumstances. Sometimes these shadows were whispering messages that could help you understand what had happened to them, and you could help them find their beloved friends or relatives who had passed away as well. 

Time has passed and the voices and shadows disappeared completely… at least this is what you thought, until…

September 14th… You arrived in Florence for the holidays and you prepare yourself for a good night’s sleep in your hotel. While you’re admiring the tower of Palazzo Vecchio, Florence’s city hall, from the window, somebody knocks at your door.
