Strange Bird Immersive presents The Man From Beyond, an original story combining immersive theatre and an escape room.
Locked in a room with friends, you must discover the room’s secrets and solve its puzzles before time runs out.
The world of the story surrounds you, characters hold out their hands to you, and no one is a passive spectator.
A 90 minute experience that brings stakes and realism to the escape game and introduces agency to the theatre.

Madame Daphne cordially invites you to a private séance to contact the spirit of Harry Houdini. But all is not what it seems, and when the ghost appears, things take a dramatic turn. Unravel mysteries a century in the making, and you could find yourselves doing more than escaping a room.
...created, built, and experienced only in Houston
Professional actors dedicated to realism from the moment you walk through the door
Responsive light and sound effects deliver a cinematic experience
Custom-designed sets and puzzles that never require guessing to solve
Go beyond the 60 minute game, and be a part of a 90 minute story
