The Demons of Segusio. Halloween at the Castle.
For the Romans, the realm of the dead opened three times a year. This year, someone has opened it early.
Beneath the Castle of Adelaide—where the foundations of the Roman praetorium of Segusio (ancient Susa) lie—a curse tablet has awakened the spirits of the dead. Shadows are rising, floor by floor, and it will take the living to stop them.
This is no ordinary guided tour. It is an experience that blends a museum visit, theater, and an escape room: you arrive as a group, split into three teams, and solve a unique puzzle on each floor. Only by combining the three solutions can you ascend to the next level. You will need to decipher text written in reverse, rediscover a name that no one speaks anymore, and persuade those who refuse to be convinced. Some puzzles can only be solved by closely examining the museum’s authentic historical artifacts.
Start times run from 8:30 PM to 10:30 PM, every 20 minutes. The experience lasts approximately 75 minutes and features a dark, unsettling atmosphere.
