6.7/10
This room begins as soon as you enter the building, from the concept and design to the owners and staff. The effort here is unmatched and truly makes you feel like you are entering the witches grounds. The room itself had an eerie feel, not too scary but definitely caught myself checking my shoulder every now and then. As you are taken into the room there was not ideal communication on when the game started, as in if we were allowed to go into the “lobby” of the hotel. This lead us to stumble through the beginning, not sure if we were breaking rules. As far as the puzzles go; the flow of the game is rough at times, especially when most of them are based off of one item in the room. With the dim lighting and our flashlight not working mid game, being able to read clues and written items was very difficult. The detail put into this room goes without notice from the amazing staff to the unbelievable props and decor used, we recommend playing Mark of the Witch if you are in the Richmond area looking for an immersive, spooky (not scary) experience!
