Blood Thirsty

We did BloodThirsty as a family outing since we like spooky stuff and heard it was one of the better “scary” escape rooms in Omaha. Overall it was really great. I don’t think it’s a spoiler as it’s on their website, but half of us went in handcuffed & blindfolded with the other half trying to rescue us unfortunate “victims”. Going in blind was actually pretty scary and the fact that they said the “monsters” could jump out at any moment definitely had me on edge. They do have live actors in this room, be warned. But I appreciated that they asked us for our consent if we were okay with certain scares. The puzzles were harder than I expected for a horror room. Most scary rooms I’ve done usually are less complex and focus on the scares but BLOODTHIRSTY’S puzzles left a few of us stumped. The atmosphere was filled with a dark, grungy yet neon-scifi esthetic, which works for the story they’re trying to tell. Hints are almost always given in-character which adds an extra layer of immersion. Also the finale is tense, suspense and VERY satisfying. If you’re a horror escape room fan and in Omaha, I think BloodThirsty is well worth a play through.

This room has a lot of tech-reliant props/codes and had a few malfunctions along the way. The game master was great with addressing any tech issue. The room is interesting and different for sure, but definitely not in our top 10.
