Mark as done to rate

Permanently Closed - Dr Vladimir Knifesblade: university professor by day, serial killer by night. He's an educated man - he knows his classical music, his literature, and which bits of the human body taste best. The FBI have nicknamed him 'The Butcher'. A simple dinner party invitation to you - some of his favourite students - fails to mention that you're the main ingredient on the menu tonight. You've become The Butcher's latest victims, or at least you will be if you don't escape from his bloody basement lair. You have 60 minutes before the doctor begins cooking. Only the brightest brains survive... the rest get eaten with some fava beans and a nice Chianti. So be smart and don't be lasagne.

The staff are amazing. The room is one of their easier ones but still very enjoyable and hard at times. Great atmosphere, the set and props are great too
