Mark as done to rate

A group of local magicians has recently purchased an abandoned theater where Harry Houdini performed in the 1920s, with the plan to reopen it as a Houdini museum. They believe the dressing room is being haunted by his spirit! Renovations have started and the contractors have reported flickering lights, strange noises and objects moving by themselves. Your team of paranormal investigators has been hired by the owners to look into the reports of ghostly activity and attempt to put Houdini’s spirit to rest. A group of investors is coming to tour the theater in one hour. If they find out it’s haunted, they will back out of the deal and the theater will end up being demolished! Does your team have what it takes to get the job done before time runs out?

I’m not sure if this is a room in a box, but we did this exact same room in Albuquerque last month. There were a couple of things that were a little different, but even some of the lock combinations were the same. Decent room, but again, the AC was acting up. I liked some of the other rooms better at this location, but I didn’t dislike it. Mostly a 1st gen room.

Room was OK. Puzzles were not overtly difficult. Room rated as 9/10 difficulty but did not feel it was this hard. Some issues with some of the technology in the room which interfered with gameplay. Overall a mid room with not much immersion.

This was our second escape room here and we were in over our heads. It was a great room and Roxie was amazing but hard was definitely not for us, yet. Roxie helped us get through it though and even though it took us more than an hour to finish, we still feel like we finished it. Really great room would recommend!

Such a fun room! Lots of different puzzles of different types. The theme was carried out through the whole room and was really well done. We did Bubbas room first, but got out pretty quickly so decided to do another. This one was MUCH more difficult. We only had two people, and escaped, but it would have been easier with 3 or 4. I wouldn’t suggest this one as your very first room, but definitely great for those who love escape rooms or have done one before! Roxie was our GM and again- she’s fabulous! I really like what they do for the “set up” and story at the beginning - adds a little twist and fun part to the experience.

There is one part that is a little physical. My daughter uses crutches and was fine, but someone with very limited mobility might have trouble.

A very fun magic room! Some cool puzzles I hadn’t seen before. Puzzles were fairly intuitive, was confused at some point but mainly needed confirmation we were doing the right thing. it was a good challenge and lots of fun! Luna was amazing!

This room has many hidden surprises, not necessarily surprises as in puzzles… This room will make you second-guess yourself in many different ways. My suggestion is don’t overthink it. Really well thought out room and backstory.
