Vvery fun escape room, was scary and lots to figure out Aswell as twist and turns within the game. Some very fun puzzles that i havent ever sone and Ben our game master was brilliant, he was bubbly and explained everything perfectly. He also made sure that any small niggles that we caused were sorted out without giving any clues!!
Overall brilliant experience
Very fun escape room, great theming and room design. Lots of puzzles to keep our team busy!
Fantastic escape room. Packed full of unique puzzles and excellent theming.
Any room where I get to put my other half ‘in danger’ is always a win.
Great theming. The most intense of the three rooms we played in one day at EO. There’s a lot to do in this room but once we got into a flow it was very satisfying.
Love the puzzles. Some types I’ve not seen before that were great. And also really liked the way that it encourages you to work together.
Sam was a great host. We had a lot of fun!
I put off doing this room as wasn’t sure how I would be in a scary room. But I should have trusted the fab team at EO to put a wonderful room together that was the right mixture of puzzles, story and a little bit of a jump but nothing that worried me! I was so immersed in the story and the puzzles and how clever the room was. We clicked with the puzzles and came out full of smiles!
Great fun. Very atmospheric and a few surprise jump scares, really well put together room.
Great room with some hidden surprises
Great set. Clever puzzles. So much fun. Always keeping us guessing. Some crawling involved and a jump scare! So much fun. Loved it
We all really enjoyed Scary Tale! As we’re all still escape room noobs we had a bit of a slow start but with the help of a few clues we started to find our rhythm and managed to escape! It was a great experience and EO is a great place to go if you’re new to escape rooms like us or even the seasoned veterans. All the hosts are extremely friendly and they really take time to get to know you and it puts you at ease immediately. Would 110% recommend scary tale and can’t wait to try out the other rooms that EO has to offer!
