This is Bram. Bram is 33 years old and a true Efteling Fan.
As a child, he drew pictures of Efteling on paper or on the wall.
Now he's older, he draws them on people's bodies. That's what makes a true fan!
But Bram, what do you draw?
This is Efteling Fans.
This is my old bedroom.
I spent many of my childhood years here in the attic of my parents' house.
I started this drawing 18 years ago as a 15-year-old teenager.
I was already an Efteling fan at that time.
I often used Efteling as a source of inspiration to develop my own creativity.
My parents always gave me that freedom,
even though I think it's quite strange that they let me paint on the walls.
Looking back, I think it's quite unusual but it was also important for me
because it was the basis for my creative development.
How's the painting going?
It's going quite well.
Is it finally going to get finished?
That's the question, of course, but it's coming along.
It looks good.
Thank you.
Are you coming down for a cup of tea?
Yes, I'll be down in a minute.
OK!
Efteling has always been a source of inspiration.
As a child, it was always fun to be able to go to Efteling.
Once you were there, everything you saw was so overwhelming.
Creatively speaking, it has such a high standard.
Somehow that always attracted me.
I used to copy the photo albums and drawings of Anton Pieck.
Anything that had to do with Efteling interested me.
That way I could use it here in my room, too.
The love for Efteling started when he was 4 years old.
That was the first time I took him to Efteling.
On a day when my wife had a training day.
That was a good opportunity to go to Efteling.
I especially loved seeing how surprised he was. Look! What's this? Everything moves!
He listened to the music from the toadstools by putting his ear to them.
That's when his fascination for the park started.
He went to Efteling almost every day after school
after we gave him a season ticket for the park for his fifteenth birthday.
Sometimes I couldn't understand why he had to keep going to Efteling.
What do you do there every time?
But he'd thought up a new theme And would go to see the lighting
or photograph all the Holle Bolle Gijs characters.
Every time he went to the park, he brought something home.
Even if it was only a teaspoon or a key ring.
Sometimes he'd come home with big Laafs, Laaf children and Pardoes cuddly toys.
A roomful.
We used to say he could have got his driving licence for that amount of money.
I can't quite understand his fascination for Efteling. You don't really get it, I suppose?
No, you're right.
But once, we went to Winter Efteling together.
Bram had already gone in the morning with a friend and we arrived in the afternoon.
He was waiting for us. As if he wanted to welcome us to his fairytale world.
The grin on his face made me realise how happy he was. That was it.
To be allowed to design, draw or think up things at Efteling used to be my greatest dream.
Really on that creative side.
I remember that when I was eight or nine years old, I thought up and drew an attraction.
I sent it to Efteling, hoping they might use it.
They sent a copy of the drawings back and kept the original ones.
So they kept the pencil drawings and sent copies back to me.
The Water Dream.
Dear Bram, thank you very much for your letter of 23 January 1994, in which you tell Efteling
about your idea for a new attraction: The Water Dream.
You are a true designer.
It all looks very technical with pipes, a moving walkway
and you've even thought of oxygen for the visitors.
The design and creation of new attractions is carried out by Efteling's own design team.
A team led by Mr Ton van de Ven, Anton Pieck's successor,
that constantly works on thinking up new attractions, which certainly isn't an easy task
as Efteling has a unique style.
This style is very well protected and that is the reason why we think up all the attractions ourselves.
Of course, that doesn't mean that there will never be an attraction about the underwater world.
That's why we will take good care of your drawings, together with all the other ideas children have sent us.
And who knows, one day you might see your own idea and Ton van de Ven's design.
With warmest regards, Efteling
"Nibble, nibble little mouse! Who's that nibbling on my house?"
The oldest memory I have of Efteling is here at Hansel and Gretel.
I used to go to Efteling with my father every year and, of course, also to the Fairytale Forest.
When we were here, he'd sit me on the wall.
Of course, I was completely absorbed in the fairytale
and when I wasn't looking, he'd secretly put a bag of sweets next to me.
When I'd finished looking and wanted to move on, I turned around and saw the bag of sweets.
I fell for it every time and my father would always say that Gretel had left the sweets for me.
From the moment I got a season ticket, I went to the park every week.
Up to 2007, I visited Efteling very often.
So at that moment it really is part of your life.
It's like a second home and becomes a routine if you go every week.
Around 2007, I had a lot of other interests and I suppose that had a bit to do with my age.
Just turned 20 years old. You go to a lot of parties and concerts.
So Efteling became a little less important to me at the time.
Until, at the end of 2014, I heard that they were going to build Baron 1898.
I saw the drawings and instantly thought that to me, this is exactly what makes Efteling.
All the details, the beautiful buildings, everything.
I immediately contacted an old friend of mine. I knew him from Efteling.
He had had the same thought, so from that moment we decided to get a season ticket again.
To tell you the truth, from that moment on it was exactly as it used to be.
From the moment I started coming to Efteling more often, Fata Morgana was my favourite attraction.
Every time I visited, I went in it because if I hadn't been in the Fata Morgana
I felt it was such a pity.
That's actually quite funny because when I was a child I thought the Fata Morgana was really scary.
I recall that the first few years I came here with my father, all I did was cry when I was in the boat.
When I started coming more often, it became my favourite attraction.
To me dark rides are always really beautiful attractions anyway.
I think that in this attraction, everything that makes Efteling so beautiful to me comes together.
That they create a fantasy world that seems so realistic. That they create a bigger world.
You get the idea that there is more behind all the shutters, doors and passageways you can look through.
That's what I really like and especially in this attraction.
What I also love is that there isn't really a clear story.
So from A to B and so on. So you can actually make up your own story.
In the past, as a creative person, I enjoyed not being bound to a set story
but being able to interpret the attraction the way I wanted to. I really like that.
When I first got my season tickets, I almost always went to the park by myself.
I didn't know anyone who had the same passion for the park as I did.
That changed around 2000-2001, when the internet started to become popular.
And Efteling, too. People could look up a lot about Efteling and a lot of websites were created about the park.
This way, I got to know a lot of people with who I visited Efteling every week from then on.
At the time, there were of course a lot of websites about Efteling.
These websites all had the same information, they discussed the attractions and the realms.
So a group of friends and I decided to create a website about Efteling, too.
In the same way, with all the facts about the attractions and the rest of the park but then focusing on the toilets.
It was well received at the time, with a good dose of humour, of course.
We covered every toilet in the entire park, fact for fact.
Also at the Fata Morgana and I'm quite curious to see whether the facts are still correct.
I think one or two things have changed over the past years.
Different colours and tiles.
Look at the sign.
Super cool. This is my drawing.
This definitely wasn't in this toilet back then.
Really cool.
Terrific, really bizarre.
Dear Bram, after all these years you're still a great Efteling Fan.
Of course, as Efteling we are immensely proud of this.
I looked at your drawings, inspired by Efteling, with great admiration.
As a token of appreciation we would like to give you your own design of the Djinn from Fata Morgana as a gift.
Today, your design on wood can hang here the whole day
so our visitors can admire it today.
We truly hope you will be able to find somewhere nice to put it at home, as a memento of this special day.
With warmest regards, Olaf Vugts - Chief Imagineering Officer Efteling
That's really great. Brilliant!
So this is my job. I am a tattoo artist.
I have been tattooing in this shop for five years.
Just like I used Efteling as inspiration and for drawings and paintings at home,
I still do but then in the shape of tattoos.
This way, I can still use Efteling to do my job.
The pictures, buildings and attractions of Efteling are very suitable to use.
At the moment I'm doing a tattoo of the Fata Morgana on Pieter.
When I saw this drawing, I knew straight away that I would choose it.
The most important thing for me was that it was an attraction.
A real attraction by Ton van de Fen, because they were the most important ones when I was young.
I think back on all the memories I made in Efteling.
As a child, now, in 10 years time and 20 years time and I carry it with me with pride. Yes, definitely.
Then I'm glad to have been able to contribute to that.
I haven't got an Efteling tattoo myself.
There is so much to see and so much that I love.
I often wander through the park and see a lot of things that would be cool as tattoos
but I haven't found anything that I would really like to put somewhere yet.
What I actually always find very interesting,
especially in my profession and looking at Efteling, is where to start.
I start with a bare arm or a bare piece of skin.
Efteling also starts with an empty plot or a blank sheet of paper.
How that process works, from the first line of a sketch to the final result, is what really interests me.
In my own work, too.
OK, the tattoo is ready. So?
I can't wait to see the tattoo, I'm so curious to know what it looks like.
This is it.
Yes, I like it.
Are you happy with it? Yes.
Great, so am I.
