L’aneme de le Morte

Friday 31 October 2025 @ 21:00 - Sunday 2 November 2025 @ 00:00 CET

L'aneme de le Morte

Serramoncesca,  PE, L’Aneme de Le Morte begin their celebrations on the 31st of October and run through to the 1st of November, the eve of ‘Il Giorno dei Morti’,  (Day of the Dead).  It’s a fun, very atmospheric celebration that takes Abruzzesi rites and customs with a hint of Halloween for a very traditional celebration ready for ‘i Morti’ on the 2nd of November that remembers deceased members of the family.

Expect lots and lots of pumpkins, great food, roasted chestnuts, and live music.  Afternoon events for children include a local version of trick or treating with the children dressed up as deceased and carrying their carved  ‘Cocce de morte’ (Jack O’Lanterns).
