Originally Curatolo also said there were students in the square wearing Halloween masks, so sounds as if whatever he saw it may have happened on 31 October, rather than the night of the murder.
Fulcanelli: "Halloween masks were never a pasrt of his testimony. However, the claim that it was is a favourite hobby horse of Candace Dempsey. 'nuff said."

This is another outright lie by Fulcanelli. He tries very hard to discredit Candace Dempsey but fails every time. I am not sure why he feels the need to constantly attack Candace.
Here is the truth about Curatolo's testimony.
Toto (Curatolo) clearly states that he saw masks and students disguised as witches on the night that he supposedly saw Amanda and Raffaele casing the cottage from Piazza Grimana (a physical impossibility by the way). Meaning it had to be Halloween night, not November 1.
Here Toto speaks of students in masks, in black clothes or dressed as witches (streghe). Again, these are Toto's exact words, drawn from his witness statement.
"Mentre mi alzavo, mi sono accorto che i due ragazzi non piu'. Se ne erano andanti via, ma io non ne ero accorto. Preciso che erano passati davanti a me e quindi credo siano scesi verso via della Pergola. Mentre leggevo, infatti io, di tanto in tanto sollevavo lo sguardo per guardare gli studente mascherati o vestiti di nero o da streghe o anche per fumarmi una sigaretta e nella zona che potevo vedere io, do via Pinturicchio all universita per strainieri, passando l'Arco Etrusco , non notai transitare i due ragazzi."
This was written about in Corriere Dell'Umbria, the local Perugia paper, by Elio Bertoldi. Like Candace, He has the original witness statement and quoted directly from it in his article.
Toto is not a reliable witness.
