🎄That’s (almost) a wrap on 2025!

We’ll be taking a much needed break for the next few days but can’t wait to share our exciting plans for 2026… 😉💀🎉

A few highlights from the past year:

- Opening ‘The Deacon’s Cabinet’ - our latest escape room bringing the original Jekyll & Hyde story to life

- Launching our first outdoor escape room to resurrect the ghosts of Burke & Hare on Edinburgh’s historic streets

- Reaching the #1 spot on TripAdvisor thanks to so many wonderful reviews ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐ 🙏

A huge thanks to everyone who’s visited us over the past year, and wishing you a very Merry Christmas from all of us at Escape The Past!
