The room was pretty cool with its design and layout. The puzzles were linear and made sense. It wasn’t too difficult and would be fun with friends as it’s a little spooky. I would recommend and the GM was awesome.
Mark as done to rate
Finding a house this cheap is rare in New York. You're not one to believe the stories, but they say this home was refuge for one of the most evil spirits the small town of Amityville has ever known. All of the home's past owners and families have disappeared without warning. Everyone in town tells you to get out while you can -- loss is inevitable, and terror is unavoidable. We hope you enjoy your first night at your new home.

Outdated room that could use a refresh. Most things worked. Some things needed extra prodding to work. Very dark to the point of being annoying. It’s not a thumbs down because there was still effort and puzzles made sense but I can’t give it a thumbs up.

Easy room that's pretty spooky. Maybe a touch scary. Ok number and quality of puzzles. Fun most of the time, sometimes meh.
Gameplay
Nothing novel here, standard escape room in a haunted house where a murder took place. Gameplay was ok.
Atmosphere
Pretty good set design and special effects.

Typical escape room experience. Definitely a good starter room for people new to escape rooms.
Story
Creepy ghost talks about murder. Find stuff and escape. It was fine.
Difficulty
Easy
Definitely on the easy side. We had two experienced and two newbies. The two pros could have rolled the room in about the same time. Good starter room for anyone new to escape rooms.

If your kid is scared easily, don't do this one. If they can handle/like haunted houses it's fine.
Was anything broken?
Yes
Needs a renovation. Nothing broken per se but the room is showing its age. And I'm pretty sure there was a puzzle that wasn't perma-broken that they had just taken out of the game loop.

North side of temple at the top of the hill. Use GPS. Next to a light, easy to miss.

DTLA so parking can be tough. They have a lot but very few spots.

Spooky vibes on point. If you’re here for that aspect then it’s a solid experience. Puzzles themselves weren’t too complicated. The main issue here is everything’s really old and the GM we had.
Gameplay
Certain hints are vague and certain actions we had to wait for the GM to “activate” the next step. So flow wise it wasn’t the greatest
Atmosphere
Definitely spooky and everything fit the theme
Customer service
GM gave off the vibe that he did not want to be there at all. He rushed through everything and almost forgot to tell us the backstory of the room. Basically here you go enter the room and enjoy.

The room fun fun and scary. Super dark but that was the point. As we figured puzzles out more light became available. A couple of mechanisms needed a little extra push to work but all in all it was a fun room.

This game was so busted. Nothing worked, we don't know what solved what, because the reaction time of the automation was so delayed. The final key didn't even work because someone broke it in a previous game. Don't spend your money on this one.

We had an amazing time at Amityville yesterday! As a Long Island-born gal, I always jump at the chance to see any Amityville movies or attractions, and this one did not disappoint! While the room was fairly easy for us, it was still very enjoyable and had great ambiance. A number of reviews mention the low light conditions, but we felt that it was very well executed, with just enough light to keep the environment spooky but still explorable. If you struggle in low-light environments, this may not be for you, but if you like a spooky escape room and don't mind low light, you'll love Amityville!

The theme of the room was spooky and the set design was great but a lot of the puzzles felt old and clunky. One puzzle wasn’t working and we got stuck on it longer than we should have. I think this room needs to be updated in order to be as exciting as it once was.
