The nights of the witches - mystery in Rifreddo is the tourist-cultural proposal of the Municipality of Rifreddo (Cn) which takes place at the end of October to enhance the local cultural heritage, starting from the ancient Monastery of Santa Maria della Stella, to the massif of Mombracco which in autumn presents itself in all its charm.

The 2019 edition of The Nights of the Witches is about to start, also known, goliardically, as the most terrible event of the year for all lovers of mystery but also for the curious. The project, now in its eleventh edition, every year attracts a wider audience and the details are treated with increasing attention starting from the choice of the actors who will animate the "Terror in the village" route.

If you want to spend a weekend full of "witches" you could do it both as visitors, but why not, also as extras: in the coming days they will in fact open the castings for the actors and the volunteer extras that will make this new edition unique.

Mystery and legends but also a lot of choice for those who can't help but think about shopping. The Notti delle Strreghe of Rifreddo, in the province of Cuneo, will in fact be accompanied by a themed market where typical products will not be missing. The organizing machine of the event is already active to propose a show worthy of the event that more than any other characterizes the Piedmontese municipality and its history.

It is now possible to book your presence at Rifreddo either on the official website www.lenottidellestreghe.it or on the website of the municipality www.comune.rifreddo.cn.it while further information can be requested at info line 328.8815126. Entrance tickets for the "Terror in the Village" route must be purchased in advance with the possibility of choosing the time. There are three sales channels: online, ticket.it and through the direct transfer to Rifreddo.
