Author. Creator of Wonder.
Storyteller who brings meaning to life.

I write meaning, dressed in wonder, and invite you to live it.

About Giorgio Onorato Aquilani

I’m a writer, composer and a creator of wonder. I write stories and I make them walk into the world.
I wrote Back To Magic and founded The Kingdom of Santa Claus to give people a way back into their most authentic self and restart from there. Everything I create, from books to music, from characters to experiences, it doesn’t stop at imagination… it enters reality.
I write what I wish someone had told me when I was searching for a path. And I build what I wish had existed when the world felt silent.

 “The stories I write are places you can walk into.”

Authorial Vision

 
I write because I believe stories are bridges. Between generations, between what we feel and what we live, between who we were and who we might become. People learn more from fables than from any other form of information.
My stories are truth made visible through symbols, places, and characters.
I believe in books that go on living inside us beyond their last page… fiction is no escape to me, it’s a return.
In an age of speed and screens, where even thought is delegated to machines, I create spaces where people can remember, feel, and transform through fables and novels.

   "Believing means giving reality a chance before it materializes. That’s what I call faith."

Living Worlds I’ve Created

Here are some of the worlds I’ve brought to life… where imagination walks hand in hand with truth.

Back to Magic 

A cross-generational novel and screenplay, Back to Magic is the key to the narrative universe of The Kingdom of Santa Claus, rediscovery wonder and human transformation.
Set between London and a tiny village in Italy, this story is the beginning of something bigger: an international project where reality and imagination collaborate side by side.

“Magic isn’t something you find. It’s something you choose.”

From Page to Place: Stories That Come to Life

Some of my stories become school projects. Others live in theme parks. Others still become movements of empathy, imagination and kindness.
Projects like The Upside Down Sky, Lucy and the Secret of Santalloween, Lucy and the Midnight Spell or The Magical Elfabet are not simply educational… they are entry points into living narratives.
My work turns stories into experiences that leave a trace inside and outside.

The Kingdom

What began as an immersive destination in Italy counting over 600,000 visitors per year, is now the gateway to a larger universe.
The Kingdom is more than a Christmas attraction. It’s the living threshold of a narrative world that expands through books, characters, rituals and emotional experiences.
A place where fantasy meets meaning, and memory becomes reality.
