Step into Transylvania, where the evil Count Dracula has fled to safety. In hot pursuit, Van Helsing and his team of brave Vampire Hunters have tracked the Count to his family crypt, in the old graveyard at the foot of his castle.
Severely weakened by Van Helsing’s exploits, the Count is vulnerable. But be warned – when the moonlight reaches the crypt, his strength will be restored and his reign of terror will begin all over again.
Prepare yourself for a final showdown between good and evil. You have one hour to finish Count Dracula once and for all.

A fun escape room with good theming. Quite easy for an experienced team but a nice set to explore. Some scavenger hunt elements and logic puzzles.
Not always the most logical puzzles, but a fun escape room nonetheless. Very dependent on the tech working properly, which thankfully it did.
This was a great gothic themed game, the puzzles were challenging in places but we still managed to escape. If you like Dracula this is one to play.
Last part of the game was very hard, host couldn't explain it properly either.
A fun room to do with the escape room newbies. The last part didn't feel logical though and somewhat spoiled it and the game host couldn't explain the reading behind it.
We always enjoy Escape Hunt but this isn't one of their strongest rooms
For a new room, the tech just doesnt work. Staff needed to manual override everything and were not always paying attention so you thought you hadnt solved puzzles that you had. Then things would unlock when the staff suddenly noticed you'd solved it or if you asked for a hint, they would open things. If the game ran correctly it could be brilliant as the puzzles were well written and the scenery was 5 star. The whole experience was a let down by the running of the game. Certainly not worth the £60 they are charging for two players.
the room broke on us
A few bits of broken tech made this not as enjoyable but the storyline and puzzles were good. The venue is nice and the hosts were friendly enough. Spacious waiting area and lockers to keep your bags/coats in.
