I’m a very avid haunted house enthusiast and have been to several. I decided to try this new haunted house out and it was pretty good. I got there when no one was there so no line or wait or anything. I just showed them my online ticket and instantly walked in. The first room is an animatronic pirate that gives a little speech before you go in and I liked that part a lot. All the actors were about an 8/10. All they’d need to do is involve themselves a little bit more but I can understand it gets hard after having several groups throughout the night. They had very good props and scenery inside as well. They use a lot of fog machines that spray eye level so I can see that potentially being an issue especially when it sprays out the fogging liquid first before the actual fog and get you a little wet. At the end they have a little gift shop and nice picture spot. The whole house took about 10 minutes to walk through and that’s with walking very slow and taking my time. They are in a small building so it’s understandable but if it was about 5 minutes longer then I’d say it’s worth the 5 star rating. They are by far the cheapest haunt around so you get what you pay for and it was worth every penny. Lastly there’s nothing to do after you finish so you just have to pretty much leave. If I was less than 30 minutes away then I’d be very happy but unfortunately it was over a 45 minute drive for me. Overall I’d highly recommend for locals but if you aren’t close then have something planned for afterwards so you don’t feel like you drove so far just for a 10...
Read moreFirst off let me say that I have done several escape rooms and I’ve come to realize that some of them are exceptional and some of them are exceptionally plain/boring. This escape room (Mystic Voyage) was one of the best I’ve done because it had an immersive feel due to an extremely well decorated group of rooms and the puzzles actually followed a storyline rather than just being a bunch of random puzzles thrown together like so many escape rooms do.
If you’re someone familiar with the escape room scene you probably know that 13th Gate has a really good reputation for their immersive rooms and this facility gives them a run for their money which is saying a lot. Whether this is your first escape room or you’ve done many others I’d be shocked if you were disappointed here.
Also, the staff was quite pleasant to deal with. I was having issues with the website (they’re still quite new so having technical issues is something I can understand) so I reached out via Facebook messenger and the owner was quick to answer my questions and even just chatted for a while. The host/game master Jamie was a...
Read moreWhat an excellent escape room experience! The puzzles are so well thought out, not a single one felt silly or lame. It was unlike any other escape room you've been to, with a neat integration of tech to some of the challenges, which made the puzzles interactive in a totally unique way. Connor, our guide, was energetic and exciting, and got us pumped up for the challenge ahead, but didn't intervene unless we asked him for a hint or he could tell we were stuck on something. None of this "you get 3 hints and you're screwed after that" business, they want you to be challenged, but to finish the escape room instead of leaving feeling frustrated. The owner, Craig, is a great guy, and you can tell he's put a lot of time and energy into making a quality experience. They transition to a haunted house in October, and that actually works to their advantage with the escape rooms; it's not just one room, you'll go through several that are all connected into one big challenge. We'll absolutely be back again to try another room, and we can't wait to see what the haunted...
