Rated between 40 and 40 out of 5
Played: 14/07/2018 Team size: 5 Time taken: ~55:00 Outcome: Successful escape!

Spooked in Stockport

This was another Groupon deal that I found, allowing five of us to play for £39.00. The walk in the dark to what can only be described as an abandoned saw mill certainly set us up for this eerie challenge!

Story

As a group of paranormal investigators, explore Crowley Manor to find out what happened to the previous team who went in there, never to return.

Puzzles

A decent variety of locks and puzzles, and there was an ongoing narrative that kept us on track. Certain pieces of information were difficult to read.

Mise-en-scène

The start to the game was sinister, and, due to the incredibly bewildering, unique hint system, I think we all were convinced the room was haunted! Dust is deliberately left in there to gather, which conveniently adds to the withered ambience. It was well-decorated and always had me on the edge.

Final Comments

The chaps who run the place were very chatty, and it was obvious they love what they do.
