You are standing in the empty lobby of Blackwood Manor, a grand old hotel in the idyllic town of Lake Placid, Upstate New York. A fierce storm is raging outside. Ten years ago, the former owners Laura and Edmund Blackwood disappeared without a trace. Visitors to this town have been mysteriously vanishing ever since, especially during the Harvest Moon each Fall. Some believe the manor is haunted, others say that strange rituals are held there every full moon. As the police are doing nothing, your team of investigative journalists are determined to finally uncover the truth behind the disappearances and what dark secrets the manor holds. But what you encounter at Blackwood Manor is far worse than you could ever have imagined…

Blackwood Manor is a great traditional room with a lovely old school feel and fun puzzles. The spooky vibes and set pieces are great. I like that there's options for playstyles and vibes.

The eerie and spooky atmosphere of this room created a fun and immersive experience. The puzzles were logical and well designed to suit the theme of the room. Whilst there was a lot to do, it was not overwhelming and it all made sense up to the satisfying conclusion.

We absolutely loved this room. The quality of the set and props was top-notch and movie-esque. The idea of using torches in the darkness really added to the atmosphere, and the puzzles were interesting and fun. The story was also quite good. We opted out of the live actor but it was still a spooky experience. One of the best escape rooms we've been to so far.

Good room overall but soundproofing is bad. Could hear other GMs talking to players in another room and staffs chatters.

In my opinion we had a little too many people in the escape room. I think if you have an experienced team- 3 people would be a better experience.
