This is easily one of the 5 best rooms I have played. So wonderfully creepy, Fantastic puzzles, and an amazing staff. Matthew, Pork, Audrey were all amazing!!!! If you are escape room enthusiast this is a must do. Do not visit Greenville without doing this room. A complete experience. I do not want to spoil anything so that's all I will say. The room itself if not something I would take a younger teen to.

Well-paced light horror game with a few jumpscares and tense moments. Puzzles are decent, but the set is great and the actor interactions are fantastic (Eden was awesome!). The best game at EA Greenville's downtown location (although I still prefer the quirkiness of Classified). My personal ranking of the 5 games at the downtown location as of August '25: 1. Classified: Operation Nine Lives (just too silly not to be my #1 here. No flaws, but it's too easy with 4, I think.) 2. Starlight Motel (excellent flow and plotting, tight with good acting moments, puzzles were just OK - a superior game to Classified, but silliness wins :) ) 3. Yuletide Magic (fun, surprisingly good puzzles and Christmasy vibes) 4. Dr. Fratelli's Cabin (Very (too) easy! A great puzzle toward the end. Good beginner game... or solo game. We finished in 24 mins as 4 people. Skippable if you're low on time) 5. Inventor's Enigma (A unique puzzle at the end, but most puzzles were a bit simple. Relatively easy overall, might be a good beginner room. Skippable if you're low on time.)

Super fun room! First time doing a scary themed room and second with a live actor. Ellie and Karissa were great and we were even paying attention to the time because we were so sucked into the room!

Gameplay

Super fun and immersive experience! First time doing a scary themed escape room. Ellie and Karissa were our live actors and they did an amazing job. Definitely would recommend!

Atmosphere

Lots of special effects and well laid out atmosphere

Matthew was an awesome live actor. The puzzles were interesting and challenging. There was a great through story and lots of good scares. Great vibe. This place deserves its reputation.

Gameplay

Good flow... There is a clear plotline to this one that is seldom seen in most "find the object" "find the exit" games.

Atmosphere

Very immersive. It was a good set up.

Customer service

Super friendly and accommodating

Particularly interesting or different

Yes

The actor and effects makes the whole thing 2000% better and scarier, but it is good to start.

Story

Yes, good story and it put us into a role play.

Difficulty

Hard

We have done a lot of rooms and this one was just the right difficulty for us. Our GM told us we did remarkably well. We usually finish rooms in 30-40 minutes, this one took 47.

Game tech

Some of each. Good blend.

5 is us, but 3-6 could do it.

Good jump scares and a palpable sense of suspense throughout. Great effects helped that.

This room is a must if you’re in the area. It flows very well and it was super immersive. It’s got a scary factor to it but it’s also quite comedic depending on how you look at things.

By far the one of the best rooms iv attended! The live actor was absolutely amazing and threw back everything I threw towards him.

We specifically chose Escape Artist because of the unique experience they provide. The extra element of a live actor in the room the entire time was very interesting to us, never done one before with this element, so I was unsure how it would be implemented or how I would like it. It made the experience! It was so novel, and fun, and added such great dynamics to the room! The room itself is good. Mix of lock and key and some fun and well executed electronic puzzles as well. Without the live actor, it would be pretty middle of the road. But adding in that actor element was AWESOME! I don't want to spoil anything, so I can't explain how they add to the room, but trust me, it's incredible. Had our hearts racing by the end. Very highly recommend!
