Heard all about the Boxwars carnage and Horror movies around the Baltic sea region?..
Want to join in the fun with a weekend adventure to Haapsalu, Estonia?
The self-organised 'PixelTravelAgency' offers coordinated travel next weekend, Friday 28th - Sunday 30th March 2008, for the 3rd 'Haapsalu Horror & Fantasy Film Festival' & the 1st 'Boxwars Estonia' event. Your cross-Baltic adventure would begin in Helsinki with recent Pixelache Boxwarriors and friends, travelling to Haapsalu on the NW Coast of Estonia, staying 2 nights and returning Sunday evening.

Whether you are protecting yourself with cardboard, shrieking to the celluloid delights on film, or relaxing in the local spas; you will definately not want to return to reality. That is, the ferry, from Tallinn back to Hel.
Bargain! Just over 100€ including ferry (but not including spa treatments;)!
