Escape Rooms for Halloween

Why Escape Rooms are great at Halloween!

Its October – pumpkin spice is everywhere, people are pulling out their flannel and football is in full swing. This also means that Halloween is right around the corner and you need something fun to do! Here are the top seven reasons you should play an escape room as your Halloween activity!

  1. No one is going to jump out at you! Ok – so we all like to be scared a little sometimes… but a random guy jumping out at you in a haunted house is just not for everyone. Our escape rooms definitely get you out of your comfort zone and get you heart racing, but you can feel confident that nobody in a zombie mask is going to approach you from behind. Promise.
  2. It doesn’t involve an all-day hangover! Sure – beer crawls are great… until they just aren’t anymore. Come play one of our games and we set you up with a great deal to grab a drink or a bite to eat nearby. Tuesdays you can get a free pretzel at OMB, Wednesdays you get $5 off at Goodroad Ciderworks, Thursday a free appetizer for your group at Queen Park Social, and Sundays $5 off your tab at Sugar Creek.
  3. No costume required! While we always love to see you dressed up – no special costume is needed to have a great time playing our escape room. Leave the dressing up up to us – all of our rooms have exciting themes and immersive decorating!
  4. You are too old to go trick-or-treating. I know, it’s a bummer for me too, but people seem to frown upon adults going door to door asking for candy. Rather than knocking on strangers’ doors, see if you can figure out the secret knock that gets you into the next room in one of our escape games!
  5. It’s a lot cleaner than carving a pumpkin! Pumpkin carving is great – but scooping all the gooey guts out of a pumpkin isn’t fun for anyone! To play our escape games you have to use your brain and your hands – but we promise you won’t have to use a flimsy knife that comes in a pumpkin carving contest.
  6. Ice Cream is way better than candy! At Escape Tactic we always have Golden Cow Creamery’s made from scratch ice cream available. Come get a scoop anytime! Their flavors are always changing but recently we have seen some pumpkin goodness and one full of Snickers.
  7. Unlike seeing a horror movie, you actually get to interact with your friends. It always sounds like a great idea to go to the movies with your friends, but by the time you leave you realize you hardly got to talk to your buddies! When you play an escape room you must work together which makes for a great time to catch up and make some new memories!
