Edifício Rolim

What is known about the Rolim Building? A 12-story building, located in front of Sé, listed as a historical site since 2015, built in the mid-1928 by Hyppolito Pujol, and the stage of terrible tragedies for nearly a century—none of that matters today. Tombs should not be desecrated. We will bear the consequences of (re)telling this story that should have remained buried beneath layers of lime. Now, we turn to Paula Febbe, the writer who revisited the crimes that took place inside the Rolim Building in her new book. Fiction and reality blur in her stories, like a macabre episode of sleepwalking: Survive (not without some post-traumatic stress) a tragic event that struck, almost 100 years after its inauguration, the cursed Rolim Building. You will have 60 minutes to navigate floors haunted by souls trapped within its walls and its new tenants. Fiction and reality intertwine in this experience, resembling a case of sleep paralysis.
