Fear! Haunted, Italian mansion holds secrets and even a 'pianist ghost'; check out

Have you ever thought about meeting a abandoned mansion full of mysteries in a remote region of Europe? The Red House is considered the most haunted in Italy, and its secrets have circulated in several legends since its construction in the 19th century.

A great place for fans of horror stories and ghosts, Villa de Vecchi is a mansion in the northern region of Italy, in Bindo.

The elegant, planned property is known for its peculiar reddish paintwork on the outside and the strange legends that have roamed the mansion's corridors for decades.

For people, the house is a “ghost mansion”, also known as “The witches' house”. In fact, it is said that a ghost resides there and plays the piano every night.

The property belonged to Count Felice de Vecchi, a man who was a hero of the Italian homeland, mainly for account of his presence in revolutionary moments that liberated the country and for being head of the National Guard of Italy.

The secrets of the Red House

Built between 1854 and 1857, the mansion was the count's desire to enjoy the summers in the beautiful Italian region. The entire architectural project was designed from a modern perspective, with amenities to ensure the place offers comfort and sophistication. Thus, the mansion was built with an elevator, internal heating and a beautiful water fountain.

However, after a period of good coexistence, the most terrible story was written in the mansion. In 1862, Felice de Vecchi returned home to find her family. But the scene he found haunts everyone to this day.

The count saw that his wife had been brutally murdered and his daughter was missing. So, he carried out a desperate search for the girl, but to no avail. Because of this, the count committed suicide at the same time.

The mansion is surrounded by so many mysteries that other people say the story about his wife's death is not true, as a different narrative says that the count, in fact, was a widower at that time.

In any case, after the owner's death, the house was inherited by his brother, Biago, who lived there for many years until the Second World War.

After the period of conflict, the residence belonged to other people, but was never able to maintain a fixed owner.

As a result, the place became a legend in the region and was visited by different people who believe in the supernatural and the occult.

Another legend is that the famous occultist Aleister Crowley slept in the property for a short period, which sparked the interest of his followers who performed rituals and sacrifices in the mansion.

Surrounded by many versions of its history, Villa de Vecchi still keeps a piano in pieces that remains amidst the rubble in the remote Italian region.
