The theming is amazing. There’s so much to look at in the queue, grave stones, bats, animatronic cat, planting, herb garden, detail such as dented down pipes, it’s all amazing.
Queue moved at a slow shuffle - I find this much less irritating than a queue that stop starts.
There is a pre show of sorts, all in Dutch, but seems somebody messed with spirits they shouldn’t have, and everyone dies 13 Oct 1876.
You then go onto a wooden bridge into the woods with howling wolf noises and loud rumblings before entering the building. You’re batched and step forwards. The building is DARK. Flickering torches add atmosphere. You then go into the main hall which is HUGE. I can’t even think of something to compare it with. We got front row, but I’m not sure it would matter.
I can’t really describe just how amazing what happens is. You spin, you tilt, you lift and drop, there’s animatronics everywhere, there’s a ghost, a huge organ (ARF) and it’s just amazing. Didn’t make us dizzy, but was absolutely amazing. I’ve never seen anything this good.
