In reality it never was up to 6 hours, that is media exaggerating, even the four hours they had on the boards at the park weren’t that accurate it was at max around 3,5 hours. Stil a long time to wait for an attraction, even an opening one but it is an incredible one of a kind experience.
Efteling is so great. My mam went there as kid, i went there as kid, lateron with my kids, now with the grandchildren. 52 and still enjoying every minute there when im there
Hi Charlie and Amy, happy halloween! The ride is absolutely incredible. Highly recommend checking out the opening ceremony from last night and perhaps some POV's and reviews. It was fun watching your reactions to the making-of and I hope you will visit Efteling sometime in the future to experience the park for yourselves. Spooky greetings from the Netherlands. 🐈⬛🎻💀
I don't know if I would take my child to that attraction. I don't even think I would want to enter. I took my 7 year old son to a medieval torture chamber in a museum. That, as it turned out, was not a good idea. And in that museum, nobody was tortured. It just showed the hardware and the guide told us how it was used. He really had difficulty swallowing even that (nighmares and all that). And I remember when I was 5, my parents took me to a castle. There was a knights suit of armor. It completely freaked me out. It was so bad that my father had to take me out. It is still one of the first and most vivid memories I have of my early years.
What I find a bit strange is that it appears that the ride isn't fully operational just yet. There seems to be a drop at the end into the dungeon level, but that part of the ride appears not to be ready.
Hmmm ... fun. But what do you know about the "Dance Macabre"? Our friend Wikipedia instructs us: "Danse macabre, Op. 40, is a symphonic poem for orchestra, written in 1874 by the French composer Camille Saint-Saëns. ... Analysis According to legend, Death appears at midnight every year on Halloween. Death calls forth the dead from their graves to dance for him while he plays his fiddle (here represented by a solo violin). His skeletons dance for him until the cockerel crows at dawn, when they must return to their graves until the next year." Now, listen to the awesome piece here (on YT): "Camille Saint-Saëns - La danse macabre" - DrGrDo
today this attraction is open to the public at 5:30 there were already people at the gate of the efteling, while efteling only opens at 10:00...today the efteling opened at 8:00 by noon there was a queue for the attraction of 5 hours
Heads up: Opening ceremony can be found online (not by Efteling themselves) ua-cam.com/video/RqvglTYX1s4/v-deo.html and several onride POV's but those tend to suck (sorry) people don't know where to look and camera's have problems with the dark part of the dark ride 😅

'Danse Macabre' opened today, with the waiting queue up to 6(!) hours.
Lots of (onride) footage to be found online.

There was a four hour queue for this attraction on the first day. I think I’ll wait for another day. 😅

I'm going next week, really looking forward to it! Heard that the queue today was 4 hours long 😵
Efteling works a lot with smells in some attraction. You can also buy it as home spray
i have the Fata Morgana spray and it smells good
I hope they will add the Danse Macabre incense ("wierrook") as roomspray as well
@possessedsinner same here...fata morgana and symbolica homespray
Toitlet building 'The last hope'. In Dutch, hoop also means pile..
What I find a bit strange is that it appears that the ride isn't fully operational just yet. There seems to be a drop at the end into the dungeon level, but that part of the ride appears not to be ready.
It's already working, but it happens during the ride as the platform tilts to its lowest point, not during the final drop.
They will add more effects and extend the ride program in the coming months
The toilets 🤣😂🤣😂. The name has a double meaning: The last hope. But "hoop" can mean hope but also heap. So, your last heap at the toilet.
And i got Skittles for Halloween so you can get them over here! Love from The Netherlands.
