The Haunting Violin from Spookslot: Between 1978 and 2022, visitors to the catacombs of Spookslot were enthralled by a haunting violin that accompanied the spectral dance in the main show. This fluorescent musical instrument now returns in the form of a captivating video animation. Its reappearance in the new attraction, Danse Macabre, promises to once again play a significant role, delighting guests with its mystical presence.

 

As the opening of Danse Macabre approaches, the violin appears in the viewing hole near the construction site, creating a special effect for eager onlookers. Accompanied by the familiar musical composition by Camille Saint-Saëns, the violin captivates viewers before disappearing with a bang and a flash. Expected to be completed in 2024, Danse Macabre is described as a "spectacular spookfest with dark twists." Once inside, visitors will be seated on choir benches that tilt and rotate. These benches are placed on a circular platform, 18 meters in diameter, which elevates three meters above the ground. As the music plays, the passengers will experience an enchanting dance-like sensation, enhancing the eerie atmosphere of the attraction.
