Description:

Come join Harry & Bess as they transport you back to the 1920's in what promises to be an unforgettable Queens NY escape room experience.

Famed illusionist Harry Houdini passed away on October 31, 1926. Prior to his death, he and his beloved wife, Bess, had discussed her trying to contact him in the afterlife. If she was successful, Harry was to reveal the phrase 'Rosabel, Believe,' a reference to their favorite musical tune.

On the anniversary of his death every year since his passing, Bess has performed a seance at The Knickerbocker hotel in hopes of contacting Houdini. Unfortunately, each year has been met with the same result – failure to contact Harry.

It is now October 31, 1936. Ten years since the death of Harry Houdini. Bess has decided that this will be her final attempt before she will give up on trying to contact Houdini forever. You have come to her aid in an attempt to help her succeed before she puts out the lights on Harry’s shrine for good. Will you succeed in helping Bess to contact her beloved husband one last time or will Houdini rest in silence forever?

You have 60 minutes to complete the seance and contact Harry Houdini.

Amazing escape room!! I’m very fond of escape rooms and this one was great, we did the haunted hotel and the theatrics to the mechanics to the overall storyline, it was amazingly done! Staff instructed us well and the hints were great… overall a great escape room and I’ll be back to try more!

My friends and I decided to book the Haunted Hotel escape room as we enjoy doing them together. We've done quite a few escape rooms across NYC and we all agreed that this was one of the best! The puzzles were unique and challenging. We really enjoyed the flow of the experience, and the staff was so incredible and kind! Definitely looking to try out some of the other rooms there.

The haunted hotel room was a lot of fun! A few weeks ago, I did the bunker room and that was challenging because it was my first escape room but it was fun also. I’m planning to do the scavenger hunt room before it’s gone! I’m excited for it.

    Your Nana was always a bit estranged from the family, but you tried your best to stay connected to her. I mean after all, she’s quite old, and she shouldn’t have to spend her days in solitude.

    Bubba and his gang are collectors of some very, VERY valuable items. They’re hidden in his pawn shop and y'all’re gonna swipe the loot from his mob. If y'all're after that 'big score,' that 'retirement job'...then this escape room in Queens is it.
