Mystery Manor

One of the easier rooms at the Gurnee but still a fun one! The creepy theme is present but not dominating to the point it will actually scare- the creepiness comes from the convincing and suspenseful set design throughout the room. A fault of my own, but the room did break by pulling a book off a shelf during the rules video that was unable to be skipped. The other rooms allow you to interact with the room during the rules video especially if you had seen it before, but it is understandable how playing the game before time starts would sequence break the experience. A fault of my own. Overall very fun room with surprises around every corner! Everything you’d want and more in a haunted house theme room!

fun story line, lots of secrets and reveals and appropriately labeled for difficulty. Was able to complete this room with my usual partner and my mother who has only done a couple rooms prior with plenty of time to spare which made for an enjoyable stress free experience. The mechanics of some of the effects and areas were very novel and convincing. Also love when a room gives a little souvenir for completing it as a little keepsake.

5/5

By far the easiest room of 60 to escape, but one of the best rooms there. Great atmosphere GREAT flow and I found myself confused way less than any other room.

Love this room! It's creepy but not scary, there's a few wow moments, lots of fun and unique puzzles that don't seem out of place and there's a nice mixture of humor. I've played this room 3 times now just because I keep wanting more of my friends and family to experience it.

Good solid room. Amazing theming and set detail. On the easier side so good for beginners. The tech was fun and lots of different types of puzzles.

My favorite one at this location. Played 3 times with different groups just bc it’s fun. Great atmosphere and story. The card puzzle is still complicated to me lol

This was definitely a really fun escape room. With some good moments. We escaped!

Rating: 4/5 I see why this is currently one of the top ranked rooms in the Chicagoland area here on Morty. The theming was great, set was high quality and fairly immersive, and the puzzles were fun and varied. It utilized tech nicely, had no random padlocks that felt out of place, and everything flowed well. Not just a single room, lots to explore. It was spooky and fun, but wasn't scary. It's a good room for 2-3 people. 2024 UPDATE: My ranking of 60 to Escape rooms (all locations) I've played so far starting with my favorite: 1. Cheesie's Pizza Party ❤️ 2. Invasion ❤️ 3. Mystery Manor ❤️ 4. Hidden Temple ❤️ 5. Blast From The Past 👍 6. Arctic Expedition 👍 7. Magic Heist 👍

This is a creepy room. There’s nothing actually scary about it but it is so well designed and decorated that you just can’t help but let it get to your head. I was terrified the entire time. There’s some really fun and clever puzzles.
