If there is an escape room theme that absolutely needs to be in Salem, it’s witches! Witch’s Hollow delivers exactly that, and doesn’t skimp on what could have been a tourist cash grab. The set is eerie without being scary. There are some neat effects. The puzzles are diverse and interesting. There are some light humorous interactions with a character. And there are even story choice points and different endings. Quite a few in fact! They’re not mindblowingly different endings, but they do feel personalized. And who doesn’t want to have their own personal witch adventure in Witch City? Get Bewitched here if you’re already in town for witch ever reason!

Excellent experience at Stained Hourglass! The room was really well done and perfect for our group of 3 enthusiasts. Game master added the right touches in character to help us when needed and add some fun elements. It would have been a lot for 2 to get done so 3 feels like bare minimum unless you want lots of GM help. Definitely one of the best rooms in greater Boston area.

Gorgeous set design. Very immersive.

Customer service

Amazing GM - gave feedback at the end of the game from his perspective, answered questions and gave 'just right' nudges and hints.

Story

So appropriate for Salem without being overly scary/horror - still whimsical

I really loved the live actor in the beginning of the story!! The puzzles were really fun and thought out. I loved how pretty the different themed rooms were.

Witches Hollow was a delightful game. Our group of 4 (3 enthusiasts and 1 newer player) escaped in 46min using a divide-and-conquer approach to the room's nonlinear game design, so not every player participated in every puzzle. That was fine with us, but if you're looking to be involved in every puzzle, you'd really only need 2 players. This room is primarily tech-based, with one mechanical lock that still makes sense immersion-wise. Lots of different puzzle styles, meaning everyone can play to their strengths. My favorite things about this room were: 1. The choice you make in the beginning has an actual impact on the story 2. The ending felt so special 3. The acting was spectacular and we thoroughly enjoyed the character interactions If you HAVE to pick between Stained Hourglass' two rooms, I would personally choose Boring Office, but both games are absolutely wonderful and you should definitely play both if you can.

Customer service

Special shout out to our GM who, in addition to being a wonderful actor, wore a KN95 during our visit, making our covid-conscious group feel extra safe and welcomed.

Live actors

There is live acting, but the actor is not in the room with you

Accessibility

The final room is not accessible with mobility aids; hints are audio, not captioned; two moments require crouching, but not every player needs to be able to crouch; we did not see any air purifiers
