Visit Sweden har den officielle opgave fra den svenske regering at markedsføre Sverige som turistdestination. Vores vision er at Sverige i 2030 er verdens mest bæredygtige og attraktive rejsedestination bygget på innovation. I dag er det vigtigere end nogensinde at målrettede rejser er meningsfulde, bevidste og skaber varig værdi med hensyn til vores gæster, for lokalsamfundet og vores planet. Velkommen til Sverige.

Med en god portion humor har vi valgt at fremhæve det, vi ved, tiltræker rejsende til Sverige. Denne gang ud fra det faktum, at Sverige tilbyder en anden type af luksus "luxury of a different nature", noget vi ønsker at tydeliggøre,
“There was a point when I got overwhelmed by panic and had to take a break – it was really horrible. But managing to control that fear was also a great experience in itself,”
If you are over 18 years old, enjoy being frightened, and can be in Sweden on October 11, you could be the one we are looking for to participate in “The Peak Fear Experiment”. Together with researchers from Recreational Fear Lab and our participants, we will find the sweet spot between fun and unpleasant. The experiment will subject the participants to different types of fear to discover their "Peak Fear".
Frightening entertainment may have a range of positive psychological effects; it may actually be good for us to play with our fears by, for instance, watching scary movies or visiting ‘haunted attractions’. Such entertainment, it seems, can function as a kind of fear vaccine, and build up resilience to stress and anxiety by practising emotion regulation and expanding our limits. So, we’re very excited about this collaboration with Liseberg and about seeing how our research results may be used to optimise scary entertainment in the real world.
At Liseberg, we are experts at creating emotional experiences, whether these concern g-forces, concerts or, as during Halloween, fear. Through “The Peak Fear Experiment” we aim to deepen our knowledge of fear and horror so that in the future we can attract more people of all ages and customise frightening and entertaining experiences for everyone.
