With the first mists, the falling leaves, the dimming lights, the city seems to change shape and the atmosphere shifts.

We take advantage of the Halloween occasion, increasingly felt and widespread especially among young people and children, to get to know our city in a somewhat more spectral way, passing through the narration of bloody, violent, and sometimes tragic events that occurred along the alleys and under the arcades of the city center.

The walk we propose on Friday, October 31, 2025, in the moonlight, will touch upon and delve into corners of our city center that have witnessed, over the centuries, events that are sometimes gruesome, other times surrounded by arcane and mysterious auras that, we are sure, will fascinate and amaze you.

From the early years of Christianity to the Austrian domination, we will review and tell stories of characters and events that have marked our city with blood and mystery: rest assured, you will not be bored!

We will also think of the little ones, with a treat and trick all from Padua that connects us to our civic past.

A mask or Halloween decoration is welcome, if you like.
