Beware of the Dog!

An interactive ghost puzzle for children. Around the end of the 13th century, when Akershus Castle was built on Akersneset as part of Oslo's fortifications, legends say that a living dog was walled into the wall to bring the castle luck and fortune. This made the dog furious and vicious, so its soul has been bound to Akershus Fortress ever since. Beware of the Dog! is a theatrical puzzle and family happening where the ghosts and other spectres come out through the walls of Akershus Fortress. They are here to give you an experience of true poltergeist quality! In Beware of the Dog! you get an exciting interactive experience at Akershus Fortress. Never before have you experienced anything like it! In the puzzle you are given practical and knowledge-based tasks, while helping the ghosts complete the tasks that bind them to the fortress. A ghost is the soul of a being that cannot rest – instead the soul is bound to the place where it died, until its task is completed. In Beware of the Dog! we meet several such fates, whose only dream is to find peace and finally rest into the November nights.
