Alien Infection

A SCARY ESCAPE FROM AN ALIEN CRAFT

WHAT TO EXPECT

  • This is one of our toughest escape rooms.

  • Expect lots of complex puzzles, scary environments, a seven foot Alien, and an organic chest probe!

  • A great choice for groups who enjoy sci-fi, the paranormal, and the odd scare.

The STORY

Strange noises have been heard lately. Was that just the wind or something in the trees?

The farm tools weren’t quite as Tom left them. The barn doors have been found open yet Grandma is sure they were closed when they turned in last night. In the town bar the lads from two farms down were telling tall tales and tin foil hat conspiracy theories! Some of the town folk say they’ve seen mysterious lights in the sky. You and your fellow firefighters have been called to the Lost Woods every night this week with locals reporting seeing the glow of fires in the trees. Everything just feels a little off.

It gets worse…! Whiskers has gone missing.

Grandma is beside herself with worry. Farmer Tom went out after Whiskers and hasn’t returned. (Although frankly she seems more concerned about Whiskers!)

As you’ve probably guessed - it’s a dark, cold, and ominous night when your brave crew enters the woods in search of the cat…

THIS GAME IS BEST FOR:

  • Groups who enjoy complex puzzle solving under time pressure.

  • Players who love tension, fear, laughter, and perhaps a little screaming.

  • Anyone not scared of things that go bump in the night.

  • Brave souls and cat lovers.

ABOUT ALIEN INFECTION

Going in to the woods at night is always a scary experience - even if you know for sure there’s nothing out there! It’s the kind of place you hear about in those alien abduction stories. One minute you’re listening for the sound of Whiskers’ collar and the next thing you know… it’s always the same... bright lights… tall skinny guys with big triangular heads and not enough fingers… Very inquisitive fellows... Fond of probes.
