Remember, this is a 4* star difficulty room, making it suitable for Adult groups; it’s not just for kids!

Are you up to the task? Of course you are! It’s time to forget about the fluffy stuff your teacher told you… today is all about the horrible parts of history!

Had the pleasure of being the first team to trial this room! Really enjoyable and a great theme for kids. Would definitely recommend!

Whilst not the hardest of games, I really enjoyed the sets and how they brought to life the horrible histories books. The time zones gradually got harder and had some really satisfying and funny moments. The voiceover between each space was very annoying and probably the only thing I didn’t like about the room

Fun for Horrible Histories fans! There was a lot of voiceover between different sections of the room which was quite annoying as the time was still ticking while the VO was explaining what’s happening next, but it was quite exciting - HH fans might recognise the voice behind the voiceover!

Fun puzzles and younger escapers will enjoy dressing up in historical fancy dress!
