Double, double toil and trouble, cauldrons burn and curses bubble. You’ve stumbled into the haunted mansion in this un-BOO-lievably fun Halloween escape room. Can you crack the curses, decipher the pumpkin puzzles, gather the ghouls, and find your way out of the labyrinthine mansion in the nick of time? It’s all tricks and all treats!

Welcome to the mansion…
Players beware!
Skulls, ghouls and puzzles
are ready to scare.
I’ll tell you this once,
there is no escape…
You’re stuck here forever,
if one moment too late…

*This is an escape room-style printable game - if you love real-life escape rooms, you’re sure to adore getting to play this in your own space, in your own time! Escape rooms are always a little tricky, and hopefully, this can activate your logic and critical thinking skills.

Enjoy the challenge!

HOW TO PLAY THE HAUNTED MANSION HALLOWEEN ESCAPE ROOM
This Haunted Mansion Halloween at-home escape room just takes a little prep. There’s a little cutting here, a little hiding there, and a whole lot of fun to be had. Simply print out the PDF document on some creeeepy paper and follow the simple instructions to set it up. There are also some handy ‘hints’ included in case players get stuck. The Halloween escape room is quite hands-on, so players should have fun finding items and piecing things together - great for building those gross motor skills!

The Haunted Mansion Halloween escape room would also make a wonderful gift for anyone lucky enough to have a spook-tacular Halloween season birthday.

Play: 60 minutes +
Age: 11+
Younger players may also find this fun with adult guidance.

You could also use two copies of the game for bigger groups and let players battle it out! (This game will need designated spaces as items need to be hidden.)

*Disclaimer - The time limit is a guide only, and escape rooms may not always be completed in this time limit. All clues are meant to test mental agility and allow players to think out of the box. The answers are not designed to be obvious at first glance.

SET-UP
The game is designed to need minimal set-up. You need nothing more than paper, the provided PDF documents, a colour printer, scissors, a butterfly pin (or provide some blu-tac) and a bedsheet/tablecloth/large piece of fabric.

You can easily set up the experience in any space: at school, at home, or even at a team building party! Players will move from corner to corner on the hunt for clues, feeling like they’ve jumped right into the spooky depths of a real haunted mansion. Organisers can add extra Halloween decorations to make the game feel even more immersive!
