Danse Macabre requires an enourmous amount of Staff, I don't think Merlin would want this. Also neat to mention is that Danse Macabre was thought up by Efteling, and they went through different manufacturers to see if anyone was willing to actually build it. THey did the same for Villa Volta back in the day, which is how the Vekoma Madhouse happend

The only thing I can see stopping universal is a world economic crash. Otherwise the intent is clearly there. The continued acquisition of houses that sit between the two parcels of land they’ve already purchased is a great sign plus they still meet monthly with local council officials to update progress.

Hey Sam, it’s me Chloe, I’m using my alt account because my mum won’t let me take my phone to my dads house for the time being because she thinks I’m always naughty on there, when I’m not, I’m just always lonely and need my theme park friends to speak to me. I’ve been unbelievably upset lately because last night, one of my cats called Bella passed away. We all knew it was bound to happen at some point because she was very old and sick. She was only rescued off the streets 3 or 4 months ago I think and since then, we have been feeding her and taking care of her loads. I’ve been crying my eyes out all night and I think I will cry a lot today too. I was sobbing my heart out til 4pm. Please go to Alton towers fireworks because it’ll really mean the world to me. If I’m still upset then, make sure you support me and comfort me through these difficult times. Can you please let Dan and Marcus know about this please?

@aurawilming604725 күн бұрын
That's honestly just window dressing. You could use the ride mechanism in many different forms. Efteling is a bit anti-screens, but the Intamin ad for the ride mechanism has it surrounded by screens, (going through some sort of volcano thing iirc) which I suppose would cut down drastically on cost and opens up so many theming options. I'm sure we'll see more of it.

That's probably due to a language barrier. Efteling has put out 7 different "making of" videos on KZbin, and we've had Dutch talk show programs make fun of how huge the marketing push has been for this ride. (which admittedly might have been a case of sour grapes since a different talk show had a whole episode on location in the Efteling)
