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.
Strange Bird Immersive presents The Man From Beyond, an original story combining immersive theatre and an escape room.
You and your friends must discover the room's many secrets 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.
brings stakes and realism to the escape game and introduces agency to the theatre.
Only your team will be in the room.
Designed for 4-8. Minimum 4 tickets.
Teams of 2 can play with empty seats. Enter "none" for players 3 and 4. (Recommended for experienced escape game players only.)
We can accomodate teams of up to 10, please contact us to inquire.

The Man from Beyond is atmospheric and offers surprises and suspense, but no horror or gore.
No. We never lock our doors. You can exit at any time for any reason.
Our parlor is several hundred square feet and quite comfortable.
Our Houdini Séance, while fictional, looks and feels like a historic Houdini séance, and we ask for each guest's participation. (Madame Daphne will ask for the spirit to attend, to speak, to move objects, and the like. No ouiji board is present; no devil or demon is invoked.) We think that makes things exciting, but if you find that problematic, The Man from Beyond may not be for you.
Our puzzles require written and spoken knowledge of English, and our actor interactions are in English.
Comfortable shoes, reading glasses (as needed), and snazzy attire if you'd like to impress Madame Daphne.
