Fata Morgana 25/08/2022 18h58
New Summer entertainment for 2022 is this Djinn who seemed to be escaped from the dark ride Fata Morgan for the first time in history.
The Efteling has given freedom to the giant Djinn from the Fata Morgana dark ride attraction. Normally, visitors encounter the huge treasure keeper while sailing through the Forbidden City. Now they can bump into him outside too: Djinn has come to life in the form of a giant puppet.
During the summer season, which lasts until the beginning of September, the giant can be met daily on the square at Fata Morgana. There he walks around at his leisure and takes pictures with passers-by. Djinn is not very talkative, but he does know some Dutch and Arabic words. Despite his menacing appearance, he comes across as remarkably friendly.
The puppet is controlled by several Arabic-dressed puppeteers. One of them also provides the voice of the character. Walking is done with the help of a treadmill. Due to the arrival of the new act, the soundtrack on the square has been adjusted. There are now mysterious oriental sounds, supplemented with environmental sounds from animals, for example.
