LOVED the theming on this one. The designers built a dark and spooky bayou homestead haunted by “La Llorona”, a legendary figure in local folklore - the spectre of a woman who went insane and drowned her children. The spooky theming meshes well with the puzzles that had some fun, original twists. The puzzles themselves were approachable and fair with a few original designs which are pretty memorable. Overall a really good room that I am glad to have experienced.
Gameplay
Gameplay was accessibly straightforward with a few moments of original interaction, about the right mix for our group.
Atmosphere
Loved the theming on this one. Creepy and atmospheric with spooky audio and lighting. The atmosphere here was one of the best parts of this room!
Customer service
Proprietors are friendly and chatted with us afterwards and recommended other (competitor) escape rooms and local eateries.

I loved how it had a spooky theme based on local folklore.

The story is based on a local legend about a woman who drowned her children and becomes a malignant undead presence. The story is compelling and original and the puzzles had some fun ideas that helped reinforce the theme.

There were a few challenging places, but nothing that seemed obtuse or unfair.

Scary
Spooky
Our group doesn’t like the really scary escape rooms, but they were able to do this one. At the same time, it really scratched that spooky vibe that I love in my escape rooms, so it was an almost perfect scare factor.
