In 1891, Octavia Hatcher became ill and fell into a coma. Believing she was dead, they buried her alive! Now Octavia’s vengeful spirit haunts her old house, bringing the same fate to any who stay for more than one hour in her home. But that’s just a legend…right? Based on a gruesomely true story.

Frankly, this would have been an awesome room in 2020 but it has a hard time competing with any modern room. There’s kind of only 2 tech elements (Andy that’s being generous) and all the rest are traditional locks. The ending was shockingly disappointing. Nonetheless the puzzles were all fair and the staff was arguably my favorite ever.

This is a great room for novices as well as seasoned escape artists. Love the atmosphere and one of the puzzles was very immersive.

Love that this room was creepy and based on a true story. The first room is a lot of finding and piecing puzzles/clues together which is fantastic for bigger groups to divide and conquer. Most of the puzzles and locks were on the traditional side and not high-tech. Because there are a good chunk of moving parts/puzzles it's really key you overly communicate with your players and keep the group on the smaller side. There will be moments you need to listen very carefully and count correctly too. As easy as that sounds, we have a few people in our group that struggled with it.

This room was fun. The story was fairly well put together and it connected to the room great. The room was in good condition and the puzzles were fun to solve. Saw one new take on a puzzle and it was great to see some creativity. Definitely check this room out if you’re in the area!

I love a good spooky escape. A haunting story to keep me looking over my shoulder without being too distracting to play. A couple of these puzzles were very cool and out there, but otherwise it was mostly a really good story that you want to solve as you go through.

Gameplay

The story is pretty straight forward, although the puzzles could be a bit confusing at times. One or two felt like we were just solving to solve, not to build the story. Still cool to solve though.

Atmosphere

The atmosphere was very eerie

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

There was one puzzle I had never done before and doubt I’ll ever see again. Very bold.

Story

I love me a spooky escape theme. It wasn’t scary, but very eerie and the story was one I haven’t seen again since.

One of Epic’s newer rooms, and it was quite fun. Very eerie, but not scary. Good storyline and set design. Don’t be afraid of tight spaces.

Fun room, did it around Halloween which was fitting. Make sure there is someone in your group who isn’t afraid of small spaces.
