Montelpulciano, Italy - Visiting the ruins of the San Galgano Abbey during a full moon prompts most visitors to forget the cliches associated with modern horror movies.
Those unable to do so will inevitably notice the odd shape lurking in the dark on the carved stones, waiting to step out from behind every column.
The eerie scene makes nightly visits to the abbey less than popular. But a swift glance at the parking spaces outside the ruined abbey makes it clear that this is a hot spot during the high tourist season.
