Laughton Mansion, New England - the year is 1992. The Whitby family was one of the wealthiest families in New England during the 1900’s. The Whitby Mansion (with over 90 bedrooms), was built for James and Edith Whitby. Legend has it, James (the Lord of the manor) went mad and murdered his entire family. After their death, the Whitby Mansion was sold at auction, it was then re-named and turned into the luxurious Laughton Hotel. There have been more supernatural events witnessed in this hotel than anywhere else on earth - with stories that will make your hair stand on end. Due to the unexplained deaths and unusual occurrences, the Laughton Hotel was eventually shuttered in 1992 – and unfortunately, detectives and paranormal investigators who have tried to explore the old mansion for evidence, were never seen again. Locals say that any living thing caught in the hotel at the stroke of midnight will become part of the spirit world forever… but your curiosity got the best of you. Your goal is to find proof that paranormal activity exists; and if you’re lucky, crack the unsolved mystery of Edith Whitby’s disappearance, whose body has never been found…

4 escape rooms

This wasn't the finest escape room I've ever done. We solved all but one of the puzzles and asked for a hint. And had to ask for a hint on the hint twice thereafter. The puzzle made no sense whatsoever and was very frustrating. Even after knowing the solve it still made no sense. Maybe because I'm not the most seasoned escape room player but it was such a buzzkill from the overall experience.

Gameplay

Not at all. There wasn't a linear story line to follow, which is fine. But there was a singular puzzle that ruined the entire experience because it wasn't a good design and the solve had nothing to do with the story - I'm not sure how other players would have figured it out. It was a relatively easy room aside from one puzzle.

Atmosphere

Good atmosphere good reception/lobby area. Very well done in that regard. I would revisit the establishment due to this fact. Their other games can't possibly be as bad.

Customer service

Treated very well. Nice and professional staff.

Particularly interesting or different

No

Story

The story was fun but nothing superb.

Difficulty

Medium

I'd say easy, with one expert level puzzle. So medium overall.

Game tech

High tech

I'd say there wasn't a great deal of high tech but it certainly wasn't mechanical.

Really stellar set and effects. Puzzles blended well in the environment. Just wish it had a little better pacing and structure. Would recommend for a smaller group.
