- aine b1 contributionwhat a night...Loved the escape room, came with my friends. One ended up crying the other could not parallel park when we got out because his legs were so shaky. So so good, would definitely recommend if you hate your friends or if your constipated- because this will make you shart.Visited October 2023Travelled with friendsWritten 14 November 2023

- Phoebe L2 contributionsWow!!!This escape room absolutely surpassed all expectations. I had done escape rooms before, but none as good as this! We were all terrified and filled with so much anticipation for the entire hour. Totally recommend… you won’t be disappointed!Visited February 2024Travelled with familyWritten 27 February 2024
- Cullen C1 contributionFreaky but funCrematorium, Started as soon as entering so dont take anything you don't want to carry around. Atmosphere was very spooky all way through. If scared of dark or can't hear or see very well probably not a good idea, but if up for a good jump and a laugh would recommend. First escape room haven't completed fully as a little too much for some of the group but would like to go back and complete to see what else is in store at the end.Visited March 2024Travelled with friendsWritten 14 March 2024
- The Furry Avengers6 contributionsclean pants please! LolWe went in a group of three and did "The Infirmary" and had an absolute blast. The decor was good and there were some pretty sneaky puzzles hidden away too. The scare factor was amazing and we found ourselves yelling and grabbing each other in fright quite frequently. It got to the point where we were almost too paranoid to concentrate on the puzzles and the games master took every opportunity to freak us out. We thoroughly loved it and would highly recommend it to any escape room enthusiast that wasn't of a nervous disposition. It definitely gets the adrenaline going.Visited May 2024Travelled with friendsWritten 13 May 2024

Booked a week before my visit and unfortunately one of us woke up sick. Asked to reschedule for another time roughly 6 hours before and the owner pointed to a 24 hour cancellation policy which doesn’t exist on their website. Very disappointed as absolutely any other business who especially rely on word of mouth, would be happy to oblige in arranging an alternative date for someone who was sick and would show a better level of understanding and customer service. Ironic as my career is in marketing and this small business owner clearly doesn’t understand the power of customer service. I don’t usually leave reviews but for someone who took nearly £60 of my money and offered no compassion and support in changing the date deserves one star or less. Book with caution!

This is not an escape room. More like a live horror experience and certainly not worth the money.
It’s basically someone speaking over a mic in a weird creepy voice, they turn the lights on and off when you’re in the rooms and jump out on you dressed in masks. The puzzles were easy. Honestly wouldn’t bother. It’s like an expensive fright night experience but not very good!
The worst “escape room” we’ve ever done and we’ve done a fair few! Avoid.

Extremely disappointing. After reading all the positive reviews on social media we were really excited to go. However, this place is so overhyped we could not believe that we were in the same place as all the positive reviewees. The puzzles are extremely basic, the host basically gives you the answers, the only 'scary' thing about it is the very basic decor and occasionally the doors opening. I think its easy to convince yourself that its super scary in your head because you know its meant to be, but in reality it really isn't scary at all. It had so much potential to be good but the execution and effort just isn't there. The experience is worth max £10pp at best- don't bother wasting your money here. We completed it in 30 minutes whilst taking it very slowly- disappointed is an understatement.

Went to the crematorium one, the house was super creepy and the host was great. Really enjoyed this experience. A lot of unexpected twists and turns and I love the fact you are going through different rooms of the house. Kept it fresh and interesting. Definitely recommend if you're into being scared and creeped out. I can't wait to try the other one!

Didn't know what to expect with this Ouija escape experience but the 'fun' started as soon as you go through the front door. There were plenty of screams, it is scary and you do find yourself totally immersed for the duration. You do need to think hard about finding all the clues as it's not overly easy to work your way round the house, but there is a bit of guidance if you are being too slow or not on the right track. Glad we were a group of 6 as everybody thought slightly differently. It's very dark and the dimness does make it hard sometimes to read things but we got out with 50 seconds to spare.....we hadn't asked what the forfeit was if we didn't make it through within the hour!! Would definitely recommend this and would definitely do another. It was great fun, which I can now happily say as we made it out!!

I don’t typically leave reviews, but this was by far the worst experience I’ve ever had with any business. We booked our escape room three weeks in advance for 4 p.m. on the 6th of October. After traveling for an hour, we arrived early and waited in the rain, only to find the building locked with no one there. When 4 p.m. came and went, there was still no sign of anyone. We knocked, buzzed, and tried everything, but it was clear the place was deserted.
Luckily, the neighboring business helped us get in touch with someone who claimed to be the owner. However, at no point did we receive an apology for the inconvenience. Instead, when we sought clarification, we were accused of shouting at him—which is completely false. He was the one who raised his voice and shouted over me. We even have a phone recording to prove it.
We traveled an hour for this experience, and it was not worth the trip. If you're thinking of traveling far for this, I’d strongly recommend looking for something closer. Poor management and customer service make this place an absolute nightmare. Avoid at all costs.

This was my first escape room experience and I’m not really a horror fan so I guess going in at the deep end sums it up. I would highly recommend Ouija as an experience to do with friends or family whilst in Bournemouth. The entire experience has been extremely well thought through that even if you’re screaming the whole way through (as I was) you will still impressed with the creativity!

Whether you will enjoy this escape room or not will completely depend on what you're looking for.
This is unlike any escape room I have been to before, be prepared to be TERRIFIED. If you're looking for challenging games this is not for you and they decor is badly done but I did end up with eyes closed a lot from fear!
Worth knowing that one person cannot leave the game alone, if one cannot hack it, it's game over for all.
So much potential in this place, just needs a little more love.
