The Penitentiary (Omventure - Mississauga Location) + 🎃 13 Rooms Bonus Event

*IMPORTANT: Please read ALL to ensure you have SECURED YOUR SPOT - UNSECURED RSVPs WILL BE REMOVED! PLUS, there are BONUS, AFTER-EVENT DETAILS!*

EVENT DETAILS:

Event #43! Wooooop! This month, we have a *special, spooky, bonus after-event*! Read on to make sure you get the necessary details!

Just in time for Halloween, we have FOUR rooms at a BRAND NEW LOCATION for you to choose from! Costumes recommended - you'll see why below!

**Please note: This is the *NEW* Omventure MISSISSAUGA location - not the Markham or Scarborough locations, where we have done rooms in the past

***BIG NOTE: The rooms this month are DIFFERENT LENGTHS AND PRICES, so please make note of the START TIME and PRICE for the SPECIFIC ROOM you want to do. BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!

****This month, after the escape shenanigans, we'll be making our way to a *special bonus event*

BONUS EVENT: 13 Rooms Immersive Horror Photo Experience!

-> TICKETS: There is no need for you to buy a ticket in advance to attend. I HAVE ALREADY ARRANGED A DISCOUNTED GROUP RATE ($29 per person) (undiscounted tickets are $39.55). We will each pay when we arrive. PLEASE LET ME KNOW whether you intend to join the bonus event or not, as part of your RSVP email (more about that below)!

-> DETAILS, from their site: "Experience 13 Rooms: From the creators of Screemers comes 13 Rooms, Toronto’s most immersive horror photo experience. Ever wonder what it’s like to step into your darkest nightmares? 13 Rooms lets you do exactly that—walk through 13 spine-tingling, cinematic sets, each designed to look and feel like a scene straight out of a horror film. Snap the Shot. Strike a Scream. Interact with terrifying characters and capture every haunting moment. This is not an escape room. Not a haunted house. This is your front-row seat to fear—crafted for horror lovers, thrill-seekers, and content creators alike. Pose in the Panic. Film the Fear. Tag the Terror. Do you dare enter all 13?"

-> TRAVEL: If you need a carpool from the escape room to the bonus event, we can arrange that on the day.

-> TIMING: I'm guessing we'll arrive at the bonus event location in time for the 9:30 pm entry slot. I'm told there will likely be no line to get in. This timing accounts for us to finish our escape rooms, take some pics at Omventure, and then make our way over.

-> DRESS CODE: COSTUMES HIGHLY RECOMMENDED! There will likely not be a ton of time for getting into costume after the escape room, so I recommend coming in costume for the whole event! Yay!

-> QUESTIONS: I am not running the bonus event, I'm just gonna be attending, like you, so if you have questions, please ask via the link below.

Here's the room description for this specific event page, from the website:

Re. Penitentiary – 60 minutes – Arrival time 7:15::

"You suddenly wake up to find yourself locked in a cramped prison cell, cold, scared, the air-filled with silence. You soon realize that you are in the St. Temple Prison. This abandoned prison has a history of mysteriously taking the lives of its prisoners. If you don’t want to be next, you have to escape...”

Important details about the escape rooms only:

1. We will book the spots for the escape room, so no planning needed!
2. This is a prepaid event, so you must pay the fee to join in.
3. Please arrive at the listed time. This is scheduled 15 mins ahead of the room time so that everyone can arrive, check in and sign waivers if applicable.
4. No shows or last minute cancellations after the booking has been paid for will not receive refunds due to the non-refundable nature of the escape room businesses.
5. If there is a cancellation/rescheduling of the event, you will receive refunds.
6. If you ever want to join an event but all of our rooms appear to be full/sold out, please message me. I can sometimes find a way to add a person or two; and if I hear from a lot of people, I may even be able to book a whole extra room for the bonus folks so they can join in the fun!
7. Please share the puzzles! We can be big groups thanks to your patronage, and sometimes escape rooms don't have multiple puzzles to work on at one time, so only a few people may be able to work on a given puzzle. Share the love! If you've been the leader on a few puzzles in a row, kindly step back and let someone else have a turn.
