Horror escape room FAQ
How scary is too scary? Our terrifying tier uses darkness, sound and tension rather than gore-for-gore's-sake, but they are genuinely intense. If anyone is unsure, start at the spooky tier. You can stop at any time, the exit is never locked for real.
Are there live actors? It varies by room and season. Where a room uses one, we tell you the scares are coming, never out of nowhere on a child.
Age limits? The spooky tier suits most ages with an adult. The intense and terrifying tiers we recommend for older teens and adults. Call the venue if you are unsure.
Can we leave if it is too much? Always. For safety the room can be exited at any time, the story is just most intense if you push through.
