Coney Island Escape Room: Presumed Guilty

Coney Island Escape Room: Presumed Guilty

I've done the Captain Kidd : Hangman's Treasure room and the facility and owners are amazing. Check them out here: https://coneyescaperoom.com/ I've booked the room for 3 people. $50/pp : ask me for my venmo to confirm your attendance. More people are welcome of course- the room limit is 5 people. What can you expect? An escape room is an interactive, live-action, team-based game where players are locked in a themed room and must find clues, solve puzzles, and complete missions within a set time limit—usually 60 minutes. Participants use logic, creativity, and collaboration to overcome challenges and achieve a goal, such as escaping a room, finding treasure, or solving a mystery. This will be my 124th escape room however I'm not great at them- I just love being challenged. This is the first part of the day: after we can grab lunch and ride the rides or walk the boardwalk. The room starts promptly at 1:45pm, there might be a grace period but usually escape rooms deduct time from the hour if you are late.

🎭👻 Broadway’s Past… Refuses to Stay Dark ✨🕯️ 🚨 Next Adventure: Ghost Light 📍 Mysstic Escape Room Olive Thomas, one of the most famous stars of the Ziegfeld Follies at the historic New Amsterdam Theatre, dazzled audiences during the height of the Vaudeville era. But her life ended under mysterious circumstances in Paris—and some say she never truly left the stage. To this day, stagehands report glimpses of her spirit: a wink from the wings, a blown kiss from the spotlight, a presence that lingers long after the curtain falls. That’s why a single ghost light is left glowing on stage each night—to give Olive and the other spirits a chance to perform… and keep them from crossing into the world of the living. 🕵️‍♀️ **Your Mission:** Keep the spirits at bay by restoring the ghost light before the stage comes alive. But be warned—once the performance begins, you’ll need to clear the stage quickly… or risk being trapped in their world forever. ⏳ Work with your team to uncover clues, solve puzzles, and escape before the curtain rises for good. 👥 Room Size: Up to 4 people (If the event sells out, join the waitlist—we may be able to add more spots.) 💰 Ticket Price: $52.75 per person Payment: [Venmo](https://venmo.com/jamiewaldorf?txn=pay&amount=52.75&note=Ghost%20Light) or [PayPal](https://www.paypal.me/jamiewaldorf/52.75) 🕐 Meet at 1:15 PM The room begins at 1:30 PM The stage is set… but not all performers have taken their final bow. 🎭👻

🚨 Next Adventure: Montauk Project 📍 Mysstic Escape Room The Montauk Air Force Station was officially shut down in the 1970s… or was it? The area is now known as Camp Hero State Park, but reports persist—people fleeing the grounds, others disappearing into the surrounding woods. Rumor has it the bunker was never fully abandoned. Some experiments may have been left behind… and something in there might still be alive. Even more concerning—there are signs the danger could be spreading. 🕵️‍♀️ **Your Mission:** Infiltrate the site, locate the source of the mysterious incidents, and bring back hard evidence. If you make it out, be sure to re-seal any gates you may have opened—containing the situation is critical. ⏳ Work with your team to uncover clues, piece together what’s really happening, and escape before time runs out. 👥 Room Size: Up to 4 people (If the event sells out, join the waitlist—we may be able to add more spots.) 💰 Ticket Price: $52.75 per person Payment: [Venmo](https://venmo.com/jamiewaldorf?txn=pay&amount=52.75&note=Montauk%20Project) or [PayPal](https://www.paypal.me/jamiewaldorf/52.75) 🕐 Meet at 11:30 AM The room begins at 11:45 AM Something is still out there… will you uncover the truth? 🔍🌊

Any questions email Dave@newyorksocialnetwork.com\*\* **Cost: $30 General Admission.** 🎃👻 Haunted History Scavenger Hunt in the Financial District 👻🎃 Join a spirited group of NYSN members and friends as we venture into the eerie streets of Lower Manhattan—home to ancient graveyards, ghostly legends, and some of the grisliest deeds in New York’s history. By lantern-light (well… flashlights and street lamps), you’ll explore haunted sites, uncover chilling stories, and race to solve clues that lurk in the shadows of the Financial District. It’s the perfect mix of fright and fun: explore, learn, laugh—and maybe get a shiver or two! We’ll split you into teams and equip you with everything you need to take on the hunt. Space is limited, so claim your spot… if you dare. 👀 After your haunted quest, stick around for a festive social at a nearby venue to share ghost stories, laughs, and a well-earned drink. **How It Works** 7:00 PM sharp – Check in at the registration point. Come solo or with friends—we’ll form teams of about 5 people. Teams will have 90 minutes to track down as many clues as possible. Prizes awarded to the team with the most correct finds. (All clues come directly from the history, geography, and buildings of the area—we don’t plant anything.) **What You’ll Discover** From the 1600s to today, Lower Manhattan has witnessed hangings, hauntings, massacres, explosions, and mysteries. Along the way you’ll scour Bowling Green to City Hall, visit allegedly haunted sites, and uncover fascinating historical markers while piecing together the city’s darker past. **Event Details** **Cost:** $30 General Admission / $20 Lifetime VIP Members **Ages:** 21+ (most attendees are in their 30s & 40s, with plenty in their 20s & 50s too) **Dress:** Comfortable/casual shoes and clothing recommended Come solo!
