Escape Cape May
Step into a thrilling mystery at the Grand Hotel in Cape May, where Dracula has been murdered! Race against time to solve the crime and experience a night full of suspense and fun.
Escape Cape May is a live escape room business that offers six themed, live-action puzzle experiences. Each experience presents a narrative-driven challenge that asks players to search for clues, solve puzzles, and complete objectives within a limited time. The lineup includes Cape Inn, CSI, Cape's Top Chef, Aunt Millie's Condo, Transylvania Murder Mystery, and The Dog Pound.
Cape Inn sends teams on a race to recover “The Sacred Tibetan Bell” from Professor Miller. CSI blends escape-room mechanics with a Clue-style murder investigation in a Mafia Club VIP lounge. Cape's Top Chef recreates the pressure of a cooking competition after a sabotage forces teams to recover missing dishes. Aunt Millie's Condo is a seaside treasure hunt noted for eccentric riddles and supports small groups of two to nine players in a 60-minute format. Transylvania Murder Mystery places players among movie monsters tasked with finding Dracula’s killer during a birthday celebration. The Dog Pound is a family-oriented rescue mission that follows clues from a brave puppy named Harper.
Escape Cape May’s experiences emphasize teamwork, problem solving, and immersive storytelling, making them suitable for friends, families, and mixed-age groups. Booking information, availability, and specific age or accessibility guidelines are provided by the venue for each experience. For groups interested in themed entertainment, Escape Cape May provides multiple options across mystery, crime, horror, culinary, and family-friendly genres. Players should check the venue for group size limits, recommended ages, and accessibility details before booking to ensure a suitable experience for specific rooms and schedules.
