In the spring of 1349, the Black Death Plague came to the city of Lincoln, this Plague killed an estimated 200 million people across Europe and around 50% of the population of Lincoln before it finally relented 1353. In many areas 90% of people who became infected with the disease perished, the bacteria spread easily by fleas and ticks and became airborne through coughs and sneezes .
To this day it is still the worst Pandemic ever to hit the human race
Luther Blofielt, the evil genius, has excavated 13th-century human remains buried beneath this very church, using the very latest DNA technology he has managed to recreate the Bubonic Plague bacterium, commonly known as the “Black Death”. Worst still, he has found a way to reproduce the bacteria using body parts from the horde of the undead that litter the streets of Lincoln.
Luther MUST be stopped before he releases the Bacterium.

story-drivenvery easy
Our least favorite room of all so far out of 7. Flew through it, seemed a bit dated, going outside along the edge of the building into the basement etc, felt like you was going the wrong way, maybe needs some themeing in this area. Some areas very dirty and mouldy. Puzzles didn't seem to stumble us and we didn't come out feeling a sense of accomplishment unfortunately. Would say this is for more a Friday night, stag do, have a few drinks and run through in a bigger group. Less ideal for a serious escape room.
This was one of the better rooms at the venue that we did. More set dressing, a few different puzzles and things to try. Made good use of the various spaces available to them. Potential to add extra stuff in some of the areas.

cleverstory-drivengreat hosting
We chose this room after it won an award. It was our first visit to TTR in Lincoln and we really enjoyed the room on a number of levels. Some good puzzles and team work required. Great host.
The room itself was in line with the theme with some creepy decor and there were lots of interesting items placed around the room to remind you what you were there for.
Everything came together during the experience to keep within the theme and the elements of scare definitely help make the puzzles just that little bit harder and can cause you longer than normal to solve the simplest of clues.
