DARK APRUTIUM Tours of the mysteries, the myths and the occult.

"It's not true, but I believe it!"

How many times have we been fascinated by stories of witches and fairies, ghosts and goblins or, even more disturbing, by mysteries and by the bishop?

These stories, by us, are handed down by the elders, who tell us about myths and events that happened and told by the ancients, that people who lived so long ago, a long time ago ... A fantastic and fascinating oral tradition in which fear and superstition gave form and explanation to incomprehensible facts.

Dark Aprutium, Abruzzo occult, are guided tours in places far in time, but that can still be revealed to those who observe carefully. We will tell you about myths and legends, of unreal or maybe true figures ... and do you believe it?
