Don't worry: this is not a history lesson, so you won't need to write a report about what happened in 1861 or remember the names of all British kings. In these escape rooms, you will be transported to a different era. A meaningful plot will make your heart race a little faster, and the atmosphere will stimulate the thought process. Will you change the course of history?
Latest reviews of historic escape rooms in New York
Super fun, incredibly beautiful and immersive room. Perfect amount of technology and analog.
As someone who has played over 50 escape rooms, I can safely say this is in my top five. Puzzles were clever and made me feel smart when I solved them.
Highly recommended when you are in the area. Great for team building because of the awesome party room.

This was the first time I went to an escape room. I loved it. It was so fun. We made it with three minutes to spare. We had a party and the guy was super nice. I strongly and highly recommend.

I went with a group of 10 teachers, and we escaped with 24 minutes to spare. The puzzles were not too difficult, and at no point were we frustrated that we weren't making any progress. We didn't even need to use our 3 clues. But the puzzles were still interesting enough. If you have 10 people be sure to call for a code to discount the price (cheaper than groupon). Would definitely do another room at this location.

Pandora's box was ideal for our family of five. Staff was very friendly and inviting. Looking forward to going back to do Illusion!

Non-linear room and everyone is kept busy. Multiple things to work on in the room but teamwork is still key. Room was chilly but we'll take that over a steamy room any day! While Brittney, our amazing game master and owner of HTE was going over game rules, the room interacted with what she was saying which was pretty cool. Room atmosphere, decor, props, and puzzles were on point and was extremely fun. Escaped with 10 min to spare!
Street parking available until 12am ($1 an hour) or in the parking lot across the street. Also, the actual entrance is on North Street! All in all, being a new escape room, it's a very nice addition to New Rochelle. Only a 20 min drive from NYC or 40 min train ride from GCT, I recommend making your way to HTE for your next escape room adventure.

I don't usually do reviews but we had so much fun. This place is a must visit. The intricacy of the room is amazing, nothing is broken and everything works the way it should. My group will definitely be back to do the other room. Great customer relations as well. The owner was super friendly and helpful.
