Eerie Motel, California
Eerie Motel, California, is our most oversized format, set across multiple rooms and requires ample space to be effective.
The game is available as an escape room franchise room.
“Eerie Motel, California” is set in a 1960s-themed Route 66 American Motel and is an action-packed adventure starting in the lobby at midnight.
Teams progress through the motel to recover a diamond hidden from the Mafia.
Like all Know Escape games, ‘Eerie Motel, California’ is rich in backstory, puzzles and theme. Accompanied by an awesome introduction video (like most of our games), teams leave the game commenting on just how clever it is.
Beware of imitations; it’s the original and best Motel-based escape room out there!
This game is popular with teams getting engaged; we’ve had three teams so far who have swapped the end diamond for a ring; example below:

“I recently did the eerie motel room with my family and we loved it. I am the only one out of the 6 of us to ever do an escape room before (I’m trying to convert more of my family into doing them with me). Having done MANY escape rooms before, this was the first one with this company and it definitely lived up to expectations! Was very different to one’s I have completed before (in a very good way), was very interactive (not just finding codes and keys for locks). Being with a group of ‘newbies’ we did need quite a few hints (much more than the 3 they offer you) and our games master (Tania) was lovely about this and definitely made the room more exciting (can’t spoil anything though). This experience was for my birthday and I’m very much looking forward to the next family event for an excuse to come back!” Link to review.

“Eerie motel was absolutely brilliant! Done a few escape rooms and this is as by far the best so far, full of thrills and puzzles.
Made me jump a little but we escaped with 2 minutes to spare.
Well recommended to all”

I wasn’t sure what to expect but this escape room was definitely one of the best I’ve done. A fun way to spend a Saturday eve and there were lots of layers to the clues making it challenging but also v fun!
Lucy was our Games Master and she was brilliant- I highly recommend!
And we found the diamond 🙂
