What happens

Mysteriet på Greveholm ("The Mystery at Greveholm") is the 1996 Swedish SVT Christmas Calendar production. It was released on VHS in October 1997 and on DVD 19 November 2001. It was voted the best Julkalender ever in Aftonbladet in 2007. A video game with the same name was released in 1997, and two sequels in 1998 (Mysteriet på Greveholm 2: Resan till Planutus) and 2000 (Mysteriet på Greveholm 3: Den gamla legenden). The 2012 Christmas Calendar, Mysteriet på Greveholm: Grevens återkomst, is a sequel to Mysteriet på Greveholm. Although it got a few complaints from both parents and fans of the original series, it gained a decent amount of new fans. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
