An immersive 'Escape Room' game set in a dark and intriguing period of Edinburgh's medical history.
A historical heist escape room which challenges you to outsmart the infamous Deacon William Brodie - Edinburgh's favourite villain, and the inspiration for Jekyll & Hyde.
Dare you follow in the bloody footsteps of Edinburgh's murderous pair?
EleanorEscape the Past is our favourite escape room in Edinburgh! We loved the historical details and little touches that made it feel extra atmospheric! We did the Deacon Brodie one this time and it was so enjoyable, thanks to Beth and Julia for making it so fun! We hope they can add a third room one day!

TimDeacon's Cabinet may be the best escape room (out of over fifty) I've done. It's only one room, but it feels almost alive, with how much they packed into it.
Hats off to Beth, who got us into the spirit with some top notch acting.March 8, 2025

StephanieWe had a fantastic experience at Escape the Past. We’ve done a good few escape rooms and I definitely felt that this was one of the most atmospheric. We loved the theme and its link to Edinburgh. The puzzles were a brilliant level of complexity and were designed really well. There were definitely some good surprises in there too! I would absolutely recommend it to others.

AidanThe best escape room I have ever done! It’s location is perfect for the theme of grave robbing, with Surgeon’s Hall and the old medical school just around the corner. The room itself is superbly designed with excellent attention to detail - the sights, sounds and even smells really set the scene! The puzzles are ingenious and extremely satisfying, and just when you think you’ve cracked it the plot thickens. The staff were very professional and engaging. Overall, an excellent evening and highly recommend.
