Under new ownership of the previously condemned Madame Locktane's Inn & Suites, you and your fellow team members have been hired in to repair the inn in preparation for its grand re-opening. While carrying out your duties, you and your team encounter a similar outage from the Inn's history. You creep into the darkness to successfully restore the power and escape before your unfortunate demise is secured. Testing your senses, with the exception of sight, will you be able to restore the power to Madame Locktane’s Inn & Suites and escape the darkness? Or will you be consumed by the monstrosities that lie within the walls of this condemned motel?

This is a mostly completely pitch-black room. I knew that coming in, and have verified that these aren’t for me. I love all the other rooms at this company for their elaborate sets, great puzzles, and thematic synergies. This room relies on the darkness to make otherwise easy puzzles really difficult. There is a way to ask for a black light on, but that’s against the spirit of the room. You’d also realize it’s just a hodge piece of tasks set in a void that don’t make sense for the ghoulish story. I just don’t see the thematic integration here. Yes it’s dark, but I wish the room had more of an identity as a hotel room. I’ll definitely give them credit that the puzzles make good use of requiring touch and awareness of surroundings despite no vision. And those looking for that kind of dark experience will probably find a good example of it here. I guess I just literally didn’t see the appeal.

Great production quality! This room was a lot of fun - about half of it is in the dark which certainly makes it harder.

Was fun having the majority of it in the dark as an added factor. We enjoyed it!

We absolutely loved this room and would recommend it as one of the top picks for experienced players.
This is one of the best rooms I’ve ever done.
Doing this room as it’s intended (in the dark) is key to getting the full experience. I absolutely loved the theming and details of this room!
Our game host Michael was the best!
Yes
This is the only game I’ve ever done with more than half of the experience in total darkness.

Any more than 2 or maybe 3 people would be too many because you would bump into each other a lot.

Not really super spooky but there are a couple of creepy elements.

You need to be able to crawl through a semi confined space and be comfortable exploring a room from standing height to crawling on the floor.

Most unique room i’ve done! Super interesting doing a room in the dark and they really maximized the space in it. Would only recommend this for advanced players because it certainly is a challenge!
Super interesting puzzles

Another solid escape room from Escape Ventures! I loved the in the dark concept blended with a bit of light in ghe beginning. The story wasn't the most compelling, but the room itself was very entertaining!

Super interesting room with relatively simple puzzles but with the gimmick that you are in complete darkness for the majority of the room. Definitely a novel experience, and would absolutely recommend. We loved it, and our host, Rebecca, was great.

Pitch black room is very interesting

Puzzles were very simple and would be trivial with light but darkness ups their difficulty greatly

It's a fairly tight space compounded by darkness so too many people would be really unwieldy

First time we’ve done a room that was mostly in the dark. Communication is key! We really enjoyed the room. We’ve done three others before this one at this location. And although we ranked it 4th out of 4 there- it’s still definitely worth doing.
Rebecca was awesome.
