Gr\u00f6na Lund<\/a> promises that Halloween 2018 will be longer, bigger and more scary then ever before! Do you dare to come aboard the frightening new attraction Ghost Ship? At\u00a0Stora Omr\u00e5det (large area),\u00a0<\/em>brave souls can visit four haunterd houses, where the House of Nightmares has new frights, “Bl\u00e5 T\u00e5get” (the blue train) is spiced up with live ghosts, “Lustiga Huset” (fun house) is transformed into “Olustiga Huset” (not-so-fun house), and the brand new Motel Hell\/o haunted house welcomes only the most fearless. This is a new level of fright, so be careful!<\/p>\n You can celebrate in a less scary way at Lilla Omr\u00e5det (small area)<\/em> where you can hang out with witches, take a ride at the\u00a0Spider Bug-ride\u00a0<\/em>or visit Lilla Scenen (little stage)\u00a0<\/em>to watch a magical show for children. Take a stroll in a cosy setting which brings the thoughts to a traditional autumn fair. Or enter a haunted house where all children will feel brave.

In numerous projects she explores the relationship between man and nature. Her works often portray states of imbalance, or out-of-control situations. The exhibition\u00a0Thinking<\/em>\u00a0Like a Mountain\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0presents a series of recent works on the theme of exploiting natural resources in Sweden and Iceland. The photographs are often at once both beautiful and menacing.\u00a0Thinking Like a Mountain\u00a0<\/em>\u00a0can be seen as a meditation on man\u2019s relation to nature \u2013 a global, highly industrialised and automated transformation of landscapes.<\/p>\n When: October 6th – February 17th 2019<\/p>\n You can read more about the current exhibitions here<\/a><\/p>\n The autumn gloom descends over Skansen<\/a>, and uneasy whispers spread through the Old Town Quarter.
