Efteling has announced that the new attraction Danse Macabre, set to open in 2024, will have a unique Intamin ride system not yet seen anywhere else in the world.

In the new attraction, named after the famous piece of music by Saint-Saëns, visitors will be transported into the story with the unforgettable music from the Spookslot haunted house as the main theme.

The surroundings in the new area will provide a mysterious setting in which the 20-metre high attraction building immediately catches the eye.

On a turntable 18 metres in diameter, topped by six smaller turntables, there will be six 'choir stalls' with seats for up to 108 visitors. The large turntable will rise, tilt and fall, and spin like a coin before it falls flat.

The renowned Swiss ride manufacturer Intamin has worked with Efteling to develop a completely new ride system for Danse Macabre, which combines several existing ride components to create something unique, that is best described as a thrill ride with immersive show technology.
