Hello Everyone!

Here at Lock & Key Escape Room we stand in solidarity with the people of Minneapolis in their fight for democracy and human rights against the forces of fascism. As a small business closing our doors is a tough decision, but we cannot stand by as American citizens are gunned down by the federal government.

We will be joining in the National Shutdown called today in support of Minneapolis and all other communities affected by ICE and will not be accepting any further bookings. We will honor any bookings made prior to the call for the general strike and shut down for the remainder of the day. All money made from those bookings will be donated to the ACLU of Minnesota.

There's a time for work, and then there's a time for punk rock.

No Pasaran!

After Much Ado, We Present to you...
House of Secrets - Part 1
In this 1920's Lovecraftian themed adventure, players take on the role of investigators searching for a missing antiquarian.
The search takes them to the study, where they find something more sinister. During your search, you discover writings that a summoning ritual was performed, freeing an unspeakable Being from beyond.

Can you bind away this Being and escape before it consumes this dimension, much like the Antiquarian who unleashed it?
