Tombstones, crypts, and other ghostly elements set the stage for the supernatural experience.

From there, you proceed to the famous Stretching Room. As the room appears to stretch vertically, ghostly portraits on the walls reveal humorous and spooky scenes.

  5. Ballroom and Attic: One of the most impressive scenes is the grand ballroom, where a ghostly party is in full swing, complete with dancing spirits and a hauntingly beautiful musical score. You’ll also journey through the attic, filled with mysterious artifacts and a ghost bride.
  6. Graveyard and Exit: As the ride progresses, you’ll find yourself in a moonlit graveyard, surrounded by singing busts, humorous tombstones, and spectral apparitions.
