'Ode aan het Spookslot' will be a short film about the old Efteling attraction 'Het Spookslot'.
Here the viewer will take a haunting and musical journey through the old ruins of the ancient castle, whilst being guided by the score Danse Macabre by Camille Saint-Saëns.

Staying true to the original story of 'Het Spookslot', with added easter eggs and other references to the Efteling.
The whole experience is estimated to be 16 minutes and 30 seconds and is planned to release on Okt. 31, 2026
