We were visiting the area for just a few days to catch up with some old friends over New Years eve. The weather was pretty rotten and we wanted an activity we could do together that allowed us to spend time together and stay indoors. We were fortunate enough to hear about Red House Mysteries and they were so understanding about our limited availability and we're kind enough to fit us in into their busy schedule. We were a group of 6, who had no idea what we were getting in to, knowing only we had to escape a room in some way or another. I can tell you now this escape room offered everything! The atmosphere was incredible, the puzzles tricky enough to make you need different perspectives, but not so difficult you can't do them. The story was so lovely and every tiny detail thought out and considered. There were so many different things to look at and tasks that needed completing that no one stood around idle. Honestly can't recommend this experience any greater! I can't wait to see what Red House Mysteries do next and I hope on our next trip over we're able to start the next adventure! Amazing work.

Reviews of escape game "The Shadow Darkens"

As my first escape room I wasn't sure what to expect, but was blown away by the quantity, quality and diversity of the challenges. The depth of the scenario, the twists and turns, and the overwhelming attention to detail mean that I would recommend them to any and everyone.

I have attended a number of events hosted by Red House Mysteries that incorporate problem solving skills and this escape the room is testament to their ability to set an immersive scene, create a serious mental series of challenges along with the high attention to detail and professionalism.
