The key to success is teamwork! Only by working together will you be able to beat the clock and escape the room. Success depends on using a variety of skills, and communication is the key.

Reviewed By GhostswithPerfume

This was THE best attraction in all of Virginia! We had never had so much fun as tourists at an attraction. If we were locals we’d be taking all of our family members, friends & co-workers! Our neighbors too!( No kidding). Excellent set up. You feel you are in a movie set down to the last detail & anything can be a clue. The owner is helpful & extremely creative as it shows in all of the escape rooms he has. Very down to earth person with a wonderful personality! The price is SO inexpensive for SO MUCH fun! We recommended this attraction to the supervisor of the hotel we are staying in ( & he will be bringing his co- workers because he saw what great FUN time we had ). Imagine playing THE best part of every favorite game you’ve ever had, combined with unlocking the most magical mystery scenes from THE BEST adventure or mystery/ ghost movies....A blast of fun every second. Not a dull moment. Of all the souvenirs you can take this FUN experience souvenir will last in your memory a lifetime! Note: Best for couples, groups of friends, business, family of ALL ages. (Not toddlers) Great for summer days. Great for rainy days. Great for winter days. Great for snowy days. We went two times in a row. The best Escape Room in all of the nation is : ESCAPE2WIN. In a Cleveland Street. Virginia Beach, Va.
