Ladies and Gentleman, welcome to the Downtown Bethlehem historic Ritz Theatre! Here you will find a star commemorating the theatre's beloved actress, Lily L'Amour, who mysteriously disappeared at the height of her career in 1921. Coincidentally or not, her understudy, Minnie Mala, met her untimely death just one night later. The elevator will take you to other levels, just be sure not to stop at Lily's old dressing room. After Minnie's death, strange things began to happen there, and several aspiring actors have gone missing without a trace! Can you uncover the mystery and reverse the curse, or will this be the last tour of your lives?

It would be a little challenging to move around and do some of the puzzles if you're hearing impaired, or have mobility issues

There is paid, street parking available. We didn't have much trouble on a Saturday afternoon.

Truly an excellent room. Well themed and with the trademark cluing and progression that LV escape brings to the table. There are a TON of things to accomplish in the room and the variety of puzzles on display is pretty remarkable. Couldnβt recommend more highly

Really good room! It does have the homemade feel to it, but not in a bad way. The room has jump scares but they are quick and move on. No live actors in the room. Puzzles were good. I really enjoyed this room.

This room is a tad scary, and I'm a mid tier scaredy cat. This room is not good for kids but it certainly is a fantastic escape room. The theming was awesome, and there are certain elements which really up the scare factor. The puzzles are interesting with the right amount of tech vs physical components.

On e of the first escape rooms I have done. It was alot of fun and some of the puzzles were different to say the least. I remember it being challeging and it going to the wire before we could escape. I wish I could do this one again.

I really enjoyed my experience at Captured LV! Haunted Theatre is a great room with a range of puzzles and design elements. There were even some puzzles Iβve never seen before!! It is definitely spooky with a ghostly storyline, and there are various scares that make the room a little jumpy, which was fun! The room does have that homemade feel, but not necessarily in a bad way. The puzzles flowed nicely and there was always several things for us to do as a group of 4. It would have been fine with another person, but I donβt think any more than 5 is ideal for this game. We actually made it to the top of the quarterly leaderboard, which was exciting! The lobby space is nice as well. Def check this place out!
Super friendly staff, chatted with us & gave us future recommendations!

The Haunted Theater is an exercise in classic escape room game design. There wasnβt a single moment that made me go βwow!β, and the set was far less convincing than it could have been, but there were many nice little moments and successes. The game required no hints as everything flowed perfectly, although some puzzles were remarkably less complex and fun than others. Itβs not worth a special trip, but itβs a perfectly enjoyable game on its own with a few surprises.
Very classic escape room style. Some puzzles were fun, some were average. Everything solved cleanly.
While it wasnβt a pretty room, it conveyed ghostly theater well. Some elements, like a printed mural, stood out in a bad way.

One step, a slightly low doorway, and some crouching

Sorry this room was just ok. for you Perhaps one of our newer experiences like the Casino Heist or Devil's Den would be a better fit for you. If you are looking for a room filled with tons of puzzles, check out the Soul Collector.

Wow this room was so neat!! I would complete again with the amount of puzzles there were and only having 4 people there are stilll a room full of puzzles I wasnβt involved in solving. I loved the elevator that takes you too the room! What a cool Erie, touch kind of like tower of terror and Disney World vibes. They really outdid themselves with this room.
Alittle confused what we were looking for to finally escape.
Hard
Hard to expert just due to the size of the puzzles and the intensity and lengthiness of answers to keys and puzzles.

A lot of interactive parts

βThe game itself is a spooky time capsule taking you back to the 1920s. β
βOne of our favorite moments was when no one wanted to be the brave one to interact with a prop.β
