The Cabin: Chapter 2 - Monie Motel

There was a nice physical flow although you have to traverse back-and-forth at times. It's mostly linear. Paying attention to cues is important.

Awesome! Felt like a (haunted) motel. Immersion was full on! Nothing felt out of place.

Welcoming and immersed in the story!

One of the scariest escape rooms out there! An actual developing story. Great job by the staff.

Usually escape rooms have a premise - some of them quite intriguing - but then you're given a mission and that's it. But here, the story develops...and you want to know what happened.

Most puzzles themselves were of moderate difficulty. But the constant tension and horror elements made them feel harder. Also, quite a few puzzles to solve. Good pace is important.

Many physical locks requiring keys or combinations.

I'd otherwise say 4 but 5 would be better to handle the "scariness". You need at least one "brave" person in the group because it's easy to fall behind the clock when fear holds you back from turning a corner or entering a new space.

Without giving away spoilers: It is quite scary. Mostly because of the anticipation of the next scare. People with strong aversion to horror or health triggers should NOT do it. People who get scared easily but still enjoy watching horror movies - they should do it. Just enjoy it (once you understand how the game flows, you will feel much better). If you are doing the trilogy back-to-back, completing the first chapter "primes" you for the next 2 chapter mentally and you are able to "deal with things" better. Is there physical touching? If I say yes, then it'll take away the fun of surprise. If I say no, then you may relax "too much" and not feel the added uncertainty (part of the fun!). So I'll let you find out :) . You will have an opportunity to "hide" if you don't want to face a certain element (this is told to you in the intro) - it was quite thrilling! If the horror is too strong, they can always dial it down (mid-game too). The lighting is dim and atmospheric (but not as dim as chapter 1).

Oh yes, lol.

Crouching and some mild climbing. Taller people may need to spend some time bent lower at a certain section.

This is the "other" location at the opposite side of the area. It's the same plaza but other side.

Although the game may make you feel very vulnerable...it doesn't push it past the safety point.

Good job Preston!

Very scary and suspensful

The scare actors were amazing! And the set design was super immersive.

The story is good, but it can be difficult to follow in the midst of the chaos and fear. The audio recordings are clever, but they can be difficult to pickup all aspects of the story.

Lots of lights and sound manipulation

Not wheelchair accessible for a lot of portions. Users sensitive to scares, flashing lights, and loud noises should avoid. Though modifications are able to be made for more or less scary if given enough notice per the website.

the combination of sound effects, set design, and actors trying to break into the room you’re investigating made this escape room feel very immersive. that was probably the most scared i’ve ever felt in my life

our GM was Sabina and she was a great host! her acting made the experience really convincing and idk if she was also the one who scared the shit out of me on multiple occasions but good job to that person as well

Huge experience. Very cool!!

Holy cow this room was incredible. From the moment we approached the door our GM was in character. And the room gave me the Willie’s. Goosebumps multiple times, and was genuinely creeped out by the how incredible the actor was. Percy *CRUSHED* it, the immersion was unreal and blew my expectations out of the water.
