Imagine being able to enter your favorite story and being able to listen to it told by the hands of its protagonists. With another little effort, you think you can become a small piece of this story yourself and start living it alongside your heroes.

This is what happens with Il Giro dell'Horror, the new project by and with Luca Ruocco [playwright and performer with DoppioSenso Unico, screenwriter of cinema and comics for realities such as Bugs Comics and Revok Film], directed by Paolo Gaudio [Fantasticherie of a solitary walker, Looney Foodz] and executive production by Francesco Abonante.

Produced by InGenereCinema.com in collaboration with Space Off, Il Giro dell’Horror is a serial format that in each episode enters the personal and creative world of one of the protagonists of local horror. The protagonist of the first episode is Domiziano Cristopharo.
