A group of local magicians has recently purchased an abandoned theater where Harry Houdini performed in the 1920s, with the plan to reopen it as a Houdini museum. They believe the dressing room is being haunted by his spirit! Renovations have started and the contractors have reported flickering lights, strange noises and objects moving by themselves. Your team of paranormal investigators has been hired by the owners to look into the reports of ghostly activity and attempt to put Houdini’s spirit to rest. A group of investors is coming to tour the theater in one hour. If they find out it’s haunted, they will back out of the deal and the theater will end up being demolished! Does your team have what it takes to get the job done before time runs out?

Pretty cool game! Effects were pretty cool and triggered promptly, only 1 hiccup during the game that is totally understandable from a technical standpoint Game master Chris was great and prompt with hints (although we didn’t have to ask sudden flex) But cool game that really flowed well :) the puzzles were nice and considerate and fun to solve so it was a really enjoyable well rounded experience

This game is VERY linear. We had 4 people and had times where 2 of us were just waiting around. Very mechanical. Lots of puzzles in the first room which can get confusing at times which ones are done and not. Lots of red herrings. This room is dated and it shows. Nothing special about it and left feeling not very satisfied. The staff is very nice though

This is a decent room which has some fun puzzles. It is mostly mechanical locks but there are some nice “supernatural” effects as well. The degree of difficulty is low even when playing on “expert mode” so I wouldn’t even want to know how easy it is on “normal mode.” The finale moment is satisfying. I can’t really recommend the room as being worth going out of your way to play, but I don’t regret playing it. Note: I am not sure who did what first, but we played a Houdini room in Albuquerque that had several of the same puzzles as this room. However, the details are different in various ways, so we didn’t feel completely spoiled, and there were elements of each room that were not present in the other. Still, it’s always a bit of a bummer when that happens.

This room was super fun and had great game play, but our game master Roxie made the whole experience. This was a pretty linear room and had some puzzles I have not seen before. Honestly one of the harder rooms I have done, but very manageable! Highly recommend checking this place out. I would say 2-4 people is ideal and kids should be okay!

The staff was really nice and we enjoyed chatting with our GM. This room had some fun puzzles but nothing particularly novel. A few things also needed some fixing and/or more play testing. Overall it was a fine experience and we do plan to try another room at this location.

Competent, classy and creative. This is a good challenge with great stylings and a fun setup. Nothing mind blowing, but it’s undeniably a well made room and engaging all the way through, save for a too abrupt ending. Most puzzles were entertaining and on theme, with some fun surprises and very inspired moments that elevate the experience from a by-the-numbers game. Nothing too complicated or frustrating if you’re a regular with escape rooms. However I would consider this room quite hard for casual and less experienced players. Depending on your experience level, you might also recognize some puzzles from other escape rooms creatively repackaged in theme for this one. Atmosphere is also very pleasant and very well made. It really feels like a real room and not a cheaply converted office space. A lot of care and attention to detail went into everything and it definitely speaks volumes. That said, I didn’t find the room very spooky like others have mentioned. A bit atmospheric maybe, but definitely not spooky by any means. Still a solid, good time and worth checking out especially if you’re a fan of Houdini and magic.

Overall a fun room with some interesting new puzzles we hadn’t seen before. The ending was a little anticlimactic because we still had puzzles we hadn’t finished, turns out we didn’t need them and did the ending the hard way. Hard to find location especially with parking but nice location once inside and friendly staff. Will definitely be back to try the rest.
