But she wasn’t as other five year old girls, her hair had strange blue reflections, her skin was white and her eyes deep blue. It was a secret that her parents where trying to hide segregating her at home. Guendalina was albino, but according to the ancient beliefs at the time her disease was considered of diabolical nature. Her nickname become Azzurina.

As sounds of the rain where knocking on the windows of the castle, her ball  slide away from her hands and the little girl ran after her, evading the guards’ surveillance for a few seconds. She follow the ball falling down the stairs to the basement and suddenly, the silence of the walls was interrupted by loud scream. Azzurina mysteriously disappeared that night and that’s how the legend of her ghost had began, and how the Ghost Castle got it’s name.
