The Villa de Vecchi mansion was built by Count Felice de Vecchi in the Italian commune of Cortenova near Lake Como in 1854 as a country residence for his family.
It was a very beautiful building, decorated in the Baroque style and surrounded by a flowering garden.
The house is now a dilapidated, dilapidated building, painted with graffiti, but still retains a gloomy, frightening atmosphere.
Daredevils who dare to come here on a solo excursion then tell eerie stories about ghosts walking around the house.
In 1862, just a few years after the de Vecchi family began to come here for the summer, someone broke into the house and brutally killed the count's wife, and his little daughter disappeared without a trace. Count Felice returned home only late in the evening, when his wife's body was already cold.
For many months the count tried to find the missing daughter, but never found it. At the end of 1862, he could not stand grief and committed suicide in the same mansion. The house, along with the garden and land, passed to his brother Biago, but he practically did not live in it and the building quickly fell into disrepair.

In 1960 the new owner tried to sell the building, but no one wanted to buy it. Then it seemed that it was about to collapse by itself, but it still stands. And even a powerful avalanche with rockfall that took place in these places in 2002 did not affect him.
Locals say that ghosts can often be seen in the house, and if you carefully approach the house, you can hear someone beautifully playing the piano somewhere in its depths. They say that the count's wife knew how to play well.
When in 2002 a stone avalanche destroyed many houses in a nearby village, but did not affect Villa de Vecci in the least, rumors spread that the house was protected by the ghosts living in it.
