Description
Griezelbos is a ghost train set within a forest. Riders are, aside from the regular skeletons, taken past animals like wolves and a gorilla.
"Griezelbos" is Dutch for ''Shiver Forest''.
History
Was named Spookhuis (Haunted House) in the beginning, and presumably did not feature a forest theme. In 2002 the forest mural was added to the station, but the ride had been renamed to Griezelbos some time before that.
For the 2008 season, the ride was made interactive by using loose hand-held guns. After a few years, these guns were no longer used, though the targets remained visible in the ride.
During a refurbishment of the ride for the 2016 season, the guns and targets were removed. Of the original 6 green cars, 4 were kept and painted in different colours. One of the put out of commission cars ended up inside the decor with a skeleton sitting inside.
Some rides in the park, including Griezelbos, got new theme music by Kevin Smetsers in 2019, however it has since been replaced by stock music.
