Scooby, Shaggy, and the gang need your mystery-solving help…or else! The town of Crystal Cove and surrounding areas are being terrorized by monsters and ghosts, and now the local Baroness Maria Richman has gone missing and it is suspected that the ghost sightings have something to do with it! Tasked with solving the crime, you arrive at the same conclusion as Mystery Incorporated. But when you get to the Spooky Castle, Mystery Inc. gets locked out, at the same time you get locked in! You soon realize that they’re able to help by communicating clues via magic portraits inside the Castle. After discovering a secret dungeon and monster lab in the castle, you come to the conclusion that the person responsible almost certainly works in the castle - but who could it be as there are several suspects??

Fantastic room, great puzzles, great theme!!! One puzzle was a little finicky and it took a lot of effort to get our guides to confirm that we had in fact solved it. They did give us extra time because of this.
Scooby snacks!!!

Some Of the props didn’t work actually. We wasted so much time trying to do the correct thing, the game master kept telling us to do the same thing we were doing, then they came in, did the same thing, realized it wasn’t working, and didn’t comp our time. There’s something with scooby snacks that was pretty cool but besides that …if it wasn’t scooby doo themed, I wouldn’t recommend .

They have some pretty good rooms… just need to change them out more often and maybe stay up to date with broken stuff cause there’s been times I’ve gone and stuff doesn’t open

Wanted to like this room a lot but it left us frustrated. With a theme like Scooby Doo puzzles could’ve been a tad bit easier to follow.

The staff is very nice and accommodating. The room was still enjoyable, but I wish there was more to the room. We went to celebrate a birthday because their favorite show is Scooby-Doo and we still had a great time!

I’m going to second what Stephie said on this one - we went in thinking we were going to absolutely love it (because hello, Escaplology AND Scooby-Doo?! Seems like a great combo). Anyways, we were let down, and unfortunately it took us forever to get started because the only things we could do made us think we would be breaking something or doing something we shouldn’t be doing (I actually yelled at my little brother for messing around with something and told him to stop and turns out he had the right idea - ugh!) Would be nice to have a disclaimer going in that it’s much more touch and mess around oriented since the other Escapology rooms aren’t.
I feel like this one missed the mark on the flow
Always well executed at Escapology
As always, the team here is great

I will be so honest - I wanted to like this a lot more than I actually did. I am a loyal gal to Escapology (and have done every other room at this location) but this one wasn't awesome. I love love love Scooby Doo so I was super excited to do this room, but honestly, it was kind of a let down. Some of the puzzles felt like you were breaking something in the room which led to us being misguided.
It was ok - like I said, some puzzles felt ~wrong~ so we stopped and they ended up being the right way to do things.
Still a very cool atmosphere. A little worn down but overall sick.
The teens that run Escapology are literally my favorite people.
