"The legend of Pier 18 endures—a tale of a fisherman-turned-killer whose spirit is said to haunt the harbor he once commanded”. Or so the Spirit Stalkers Tour Squad will tell you! As your tour group shuffles past the condemned pier, you feel an undeniable pull, one that draws you beyond the safety of police barricades to the pier's edge. Waves whisper long-lost secrets, and you can almost hear sad ship bells echo, carrying the weight of eternal sorrow. The Sinkerman beckons. Are you prepared to confront the chilling truth behind the legend, or will you become another spectral footnote in the ghost stories told on the Pier 18 tours?"

KJ2? Number 1!!! We had an amazing experience. This game was a challenge but none of the puzzles were unfair and we will definitely be back to play the rest.

Another home run for Escape Ventures! Our family of four (including our 10 year old son) took on the Haunted Harbor. This was our 8th escape room with Escape Ventures across all 3 locations and it didn’t disappoint. The storyline was fun, our game master was engaging and the set design and game mechanics flowed smoothly. We had so much fun completing the puzzles, which were unique, fun, and intuitive. Looking forward to playing the rest of the rooms Escape Ventures has to offer.
Gameplay was intuitive, everything flowed well and was enjoyable.
Everything fit perfectly, we felt immersed in the environment.
James the Third played the part well and made our experience enjoyable.

Everything from the storyline, to the props, to the special effects just fit in well and made the escape room very fun for our family of 4.
Unique storyline coupled with well thought-out set design and gameplay elements.

Our group of four was able to complete everything within the allotted time, didn’t feel too cramped. The combined room size was quite big.

Escape Ventures took over this location from the old Escape Goat. If you played their old sailor-themed room, this one is very different so feel safe to book it! They expanded the space a bit. Fun room with a mix of tech and mechanical puzzles. Really good storyline too! There are some flashing lights, so be warned if you have epilepsy or are sensitive to such things. They didn’t bother my issues, but if I wasn’t mediated, they would have. The game master warned us of this, but I thought it would be nice for others to know prior to booking. The lights are more than just the usual T&C “we have some flashing lights” warnings and they cannot turn them off here.

The Escape Ventures games never disappoint! The Haunted Harbor was an amazing addition to all of their other awesome rooms. We can't wait until their new room comes as well. They always go above and beyond. James3 was a great tour guide throughout our adventure. 5 stars. You're guaranteed to have an excellent time at this venue.

A great new game! Heavy on the atmospherics and lighter on the terror than many recent EV games. (Still spooky though). Excellent gameplay that kept us on our toes but did not cause a lot of confusion and frustration. Puzzle density is HIGH. Expect to solve a puzzle every two minutes once your countdown starts
Excellent semi-linear flow. Games were intuitive and challenging.
Great special effects, great music, excellent lighting. Amazing use of directional sound.
Sarina was a great game master. Very energetic and fun. Escape Ventures knows how to pick them!

One person needs to do some climbing.
