CLOSING DAY: the very first Jackson Escape Rooms experience went live on March 16, 2015.
Today, Sunday May 21st, the adventure comes to an end as Jackson Escape Rooms closes its doors in Jackson, Tennessee.
It has been a wild and amazing ride, packed with so many unexpected and impossible-to-imagine twists & turns.
Nobody had a clue that when we began this business as a one week pop-up that it would grow into what it eventually became.
Not only did Jackson Escape Rooms become a fully fledged business, it expanded into escape rooms in Murfreesboro, TN; Waco, Tx; and Franklin, TN.
We started with 2400 players playing those first rooms we made from the contents of our storage closets and crazy brains. Now we’ve far surpassed 100,000 players in Jackson alone.
We started with just the four of us original owners staffing the rooms and since then have had 35 room hosts, team managers, and operations managers locking players in rooms for fun.
It has been a truly amazing ride from creating those 4 original rooms all the way through rooms 22, 23, 24, & 26 that are currently up and running at JER.
And it has been an honor to be a part of shaping and participation in the community of Jackson, Tennessee — especially of .
Thanks for coming out with your families, friends, coworkers, and classmates.
Once you escape a Jackson Escape Room, unlocking a door will never feel the same again!
