Caffe Vittoria

This guide to Caffe Vittoria in Boston's North End follows a 2013 paranormal investigation into cold spots and shifting shadows reported by staff in the cigar room downstairs, which led investigators to a tin box hidden behind the staircase wall and to old city records about the building's earlier life on Hanover Street. It traces what those records turned up about a nineteenth-century boarding house once run at this address. Listen from a seat near the antique espresso machines, which have lined these walls since 1929.
