The “sprevengoli”, according to local popular tradition, are spirits who disturb people while asleep, jumping on their stomachs and startling them from their sleep, out of breath. To exorcise our fear of these nocturnal ‘guests’, every year Ostra proposes three evenings of good food and fun. Along the streets and darkest alleyways, enveloped in an atmosphere of mystery and magic, shows and entertainment are never lacking. Both adults and children are welcome to dress up and wear masks.
