Efteling's “Danse Macabre”: A Spectacular Journey to New Heights

Efteling is about to reach a significant apex with “Danse Macabre,” both metaphorically and quite literally.

An Architectural Masterpiece Takes Shape

On Thursday, February 1st, the structure, which already boasts an imposing presence, will achieve its final architectural culmination. A 4-meter-tall, pointed pinnacle will be placed atop the building, marking the highest point of the attraction. The structure, inspired by a centuries-old abbey complex, promises to transport visitors to a world suspended between reality and a mystical past with its height of approximately 20 meters. The impression of a decayed and deserted complex with a collapsed roof lends an enigmatic aura to the building.

A Glimpse into a World of Mysteries

With the completion of the pinnacle, “Danse Macabre” inches closer to unveiling an extraordinary spectacle of phantoms to its visitors next fall. This attraction, replacing the legendary “Spookslot,” is poised to offer an unparalleled experience, continuing Efteling's tradition of first-class entertainment.

A Momentous Gathering

Efteling honors this pivotal moment in the development of “Danse Macabre” with a special press event. This gathering will provide a unique opportunity to gain insights from key figures such as Koen Sanders, the Director of Product, Market, and Image, and the designer Jeroen Verheij. Their visions and craftsmanship behind this magical attraction will be the focal point on this day.

“Danse Macabre” is on the verge of taking its visitors on a journey where the boundaries between reality and the shadowy world blur. Efteling once again proves its mastery of bringing stories to life and creating unforgettable experiences.
