chehza Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Last week I've been to the WitchWorld organization in Almere, Holland. They are going to build a new theme park in Monsteras, Sweden. Knurt the Troll is the first animatronic for the new park which was build by the makers of the Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings movie animatronics. It is wonderfull to see how good the details are in Knurt, also known as 'Het Geheim van Almere' (The Secret of Almere)! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GKbvy7Iedac
cfc Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 ^Very nice work--I appreciate good animatronics, dark rides, and walk-through attractions.
_koppen Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Sounds really awesome, as I love old tale's of witches, but I'm not really feeling the location of it.
chehza Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 The location of the park is nearby the touristic destination of 'Ulland' (Island). At the summer there are about 3 million tourists at this place. Also the place is well known for their fairytales, stories about witches and trolls and saga's. I think the location is good, also because the park will be build at the highway between Stockholm and Malmö.

I think the location is good, also because the park will be build at the highway between Stockholm and Malmö. Yes, there are a lot of tourist in the area, but it's still almost an hour away from where the bridge enters Öland. Don't get me wrong, I'm very positive to a project like this, I just don't think the location is dynamite. Also I haven't heard anything new about this project, except this video, since I first heard of it almost 4 years ago.
chehza Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 Since I was there last week, I can say that there is still a lot work to do, but they are working on it. They don't have a clear date of opening. It's waiting for new investments in the company.
John Peck Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 I wonder if this is their answer to a Harry Potter-styled park.
chehza Posted March 3, 2013 Posted March 3, 2013 They' will use De Efteling in the Netherlands as a 'blueprint' for their park. It's the Efteling 2.0, with their own darkrides etc.
Philrad71 Posted March 4, 2013 Posted March 4, 2013 I am definitely into this. The world needs a theme parks themed to witches - hopefully evil witches and not Harry Potter fluff. Not sure how many visitors it would get, but it sure would be cool.
Nrthwnd Posted March 5, 2013 Posted March 5, 2013 This could be like the Villains Park that Disney was toying (possibly) with for adding to the WDW property. Must visit this place. Definitely visit.
