The Witching Hour

Great rooms with heaps of puzzles to solve! We really enjoyed doing them all!

5/10

I’m a sucker for creepy rooms and this one ticked the boxes! While not strictly super scary, it was the potential of jump scares that kept us on our toes the entire time. The lights flickering and going off occasionally was a little frustrating if you’re in the middle of solving a puzzle, but it really added to the overall atmosphere. Very solid theming, tech and sound design, with many different spaces and an assortment of puzzles. Our first Scram experience was a success and we will be back for more.

Having done the other two rooms at this location, I think this os the best room that Scram Macquarie has to offer. The set design is good and creepy but that is really the only extent that makes this room remotely scary. The scariest part of this room is the lights going out, followed by a REALLY loud noise. (Seriously cover your ears immediately when the lights go out) Unlike the other two rooms, this room is linear and I think because of that, the puzzles flow very well and you don't have to guess what to do next. This room is a bit short though and the crawling seemed a bit pointless. If you are trying to choose which room to do at this venue definitely go for this one.

7.5/10 Enjoyable, engaging and totally spooky. Witch-themed room with believable elements and an immersive storyline. Gamemaster on duty, Mabel (?), was great!

Our journey with Scram Escape Rooms began in Parramatta, prompting our curiosity to explore The Witching Hour at their new location in Macquarie Park. The room cast a captivatingly creepy ambiance, each space veiled in darkness. The puzzles, laden with satanic ritual undertones, contributed to an interactive and immersive experience. Surmounting the room's difficulty and intricate puzzles, we emerged victorious with nearly 15 minutes to spare—a true testament to our collective problem-solving prowess and the need for some serious "big brain" thinking. Post The Witching Hour adventure, a lingering positive vibe enveloped us. The experience was seamlessly enhanced by the convenience of ample on-site parking, requiring minimal pre-planning on our part. Our escapade culminated in a delightful visit to Kong's BBQ for an enjoyable Korean BBQ experience, adding an extra layer of satisfaction to our outing. Scram Escape Rooms, true to their reputation, consistently delivers high-quality rooms, making them a wholehearted recommendation for anyone in search of an engaging and immersive escape room experience.
