Fabula

Fabula is an attraction in Efteling. It is a 4D movie that replaced the former attraction and movie PandaDroom.

 

PandaDroom was last seen in November 2019. The film and technique were replaced. The pre-show was also renewed. In the post-show, the World of Animals, the animatronic of a panda was replaced by the bear and squirrel from the movie. The restaurant was also renovated and a bar was placed at the souvenir shop. Changes to the attraction were made earlier in 2019, for example, the restaurant and entrance have already been modified.

A young, grumpy bear doesn't get along well with other animals. In the film, the main characters are briefly introduced, a young bear and a squirrel. The bear is hibernating and reacts grumpily to the presence of the squirrel. The bear is not social, it does not get along well with other animals. The mythical figure, Klaas often, can manipulate dreams. He shows the bear in a dream that he can show more respect for his environment and other animals. In doing so, he is placed in different animal worlds and each time transformed into an animal from that world.

 

De Mister Sandman, or Klaas Vaak, is a world-famous fairytale figure, also known for the story by Hans Christian Andersen from 1842. Klaas Vaak is a well-known face in the Efteling, especially in the Bosrijk holiday park. In Bosrijk the story of Klaas often elaborated further. The Sand Castle of Klaas Often is built in the central point of the holiday park. The sand castle is in the middle of a lake, called the Lake of Dreams. According to the story, it is the residence of Klaas Vaak, the sand gnomes and the owl eagle owl. The surname 'Houdoe' is a subtle reference to the Brabant farewell greeting 'Houdoe', which can be translated into 'Keep your good'. Klaas often and his friends can be seen as entertainers in Bosrijk and during events in the park.

 

The 3D movie works with additional effects, making it a 4D experience. During the film, water, smell and wind are used, which makes the film more alive. These effects were also already incorporated in the predecessor Pandadroom, but have been modernized.
