SoCalloween News Review: MurderCo Pure Evil

MrG — Tue, 06 Jun 2023 04:16:08 +0000

I’ll try to keep this brief because describing our experience here would simply be spoiling the fun and legit scares of what this unique escape room has to offer. Right off the bat I must warn everyone, it’s an intense experience and only meant for those ready for an extreme experience is to the 17th Door bet even then that’s not a fair comparison and not doing Black Market Escape Rooms justice.

You will be grabbed, you will get wet (in various manners), it may get uncomfortable in more ways than one, you will be at the whim of “The Artists” as you and presumably your group attempt to solve puzzles to escape the living hell that is “MurderCo: Pure Evil”.

As you can imagine, you will have to sign a waiver before entering. It will get intense!!!Also as a fun bonus, we went to grab food at the nearby Norm’s restaurant covered in blood.

If you think you’re brave enough? Schedule a reservation at BMERINC.com today

MurderCo: The Best Actor Interactions in an Escape Room

MrG — Mon, 05 Jun 2023 09:47:54 +0000

We’ve played 80+ LA escape rooms and over 375 (in-person) in total. Here are our recommendations for the “best” Los Angeles escape rooms. LA is our favorite place in the US to play escape rooms, and we make multiple trips every year to check out whatever new games pop up.

We dub Los Angeles the “Escape Room Capital” of the United States, due to the sheer volume of top-tier games (we suspect that this is mostly due to the mix of entertainment industry creators and immersive-entertainment-loving customers).

These rooms offer great overall experiences and push the standards of the escape room industry in ways that we’re really excited about. Of course, “best” is subjective, so please read through our reviews to find a game suitable for you!

Lab Rat (Hatch Escapes) – Amazing overall production
Red Giant (Quest Room) – Excellent production and technology
Murder Co (Black Market ) – Best actor interactions
Jumanji (60out Escape Rooms) – Great companion to movie
Stash House (Stash House) – Immersive storytelling, lots of content
Elevator Shaft (Basement) – Thrilling room with neat special effects
Courtyard (Basement) – Actor-driven with set-based puzzles
Hex Room (Cross Roads) – Elaborate set with novel split-team setup
Zoe (Escape Room Era) – Scariest escape room in LA
Da Vinci’s Challenge (Quest Room) – Interactive set
Bloody Elbow (Quest Room) – Interactive set in horror-themed game
Pyramid (Escape Room LA) – Grand set with impressive reveals
Magic Kingdom (Maze Rooms) – Plenty of magical interactions
Da Vinci’s Secret (60out Escape Rooms) – Lots of great themed puzzles

MurderCo, That One Night Changed My Life Forever…

MrG — Mon, 05 Jun 2023 09:12:37 +0000

It all started right after I joined EDscapade Games. I heard many stories from the owners of their escape experiences, far and near from the Bay Area. But one story that stuck with me was Black Market Escape Rooms Inc.’s MurderCo experience. It is a full live action interactive immersive horror experience.

My first time hearing about this story was that it was our nation’s first R-Rated Horror Escape Experience. Even the names of the artists (actors)- Oblivion, Sideshow, Juggernaut, and Maneater sounded horrifying to me. What terrified me the most was the fact that they played the “Pure Evil” version which includes all the artists, not just one.

Ever since hearing the story, we had our research trips all around. Eventually, we made it to LA and the “Pure Evil” experience was booked. What made it worse was the booking was set for midnight. Many thoughts rushed through my head as the time was ticking down towards midnight and I would be experiencing it first hand.

It was a dark, and chilly night. When we arrived to the location, it seemed “sketch.” I thought to myself, maybe we’re at the wrong place or hopefully something broke in the game and our team would be able to skip this experience. We arrive at the front door and push the intercom button. That’s when the experience started….

The person behind the intercom sounded stern. They made sure that we followed EXACT instructions sent to our email. Once we entered, my heart started racing faster. Without giving too many spoilers away, the first area felt surreal almost as if we were in a movie scene.

We proceeded to the next area where they would explain the rules in depth. The part that stuck out to me was that they mentioned we could leave the experience at that moment. We just had to exit the RED door. I thought to myself, do I leave? Or do I gain enough courage to push through it? That one night changed my life forever…

Nine friends, nine dreams, and one fantastic execution. The manifestation of EDscapade Games blossoms from their love of the game.

Rise of APEX: Delivers a Stunning Sequel

MrG — Mon, 05 Jun 2023 08:40:38 +0000

The Harvest: Rise of APEX is an intense interactive immersive theater experience that literally will have its guests running non-stop out of fear for forty-five minutes. As the Harvest story continues, APEX has founded his own religion with followers, The People’s Church.

Experience what it would feel like to pledge into The People’s Church and witness firsthand one of APEX’s immortal rituals. Are you worthy? That is the question the followers want to show you. They believe you are and they will do anything to convince you, even murder. Will you be convinced in partaking in their gifts or will you run and escape the cult?

MurderCo: Pure Evil Infuses Extreme Horror

MrG — Mon, 05 Jun 2023 08:23:59 +0000

The best escape rooms immerse audiences in their worlds. Thus, the intersection of immersive horror and escape games was a logical extension of the genres, and a very successful one at that. Well, you don’t have to imagine it anymore because Black Market Escape Rooms’ MurderCo: Pure Evil is exactly that—an extreme haunt escape room.

While previous MurderCo experiences pitted participants against one of Black Market Escape Rooms’ so-called artists, MurderCo: Pure Evil invites all four artists into the fun. This means that for 90 minutes participants will have to solve multiple rooms of puzzles with the added context of surviving numerous invasions, interruptions, and assaults from Oblivion, Juggernaut, Sideshow, and Maneater. This is full contact, this is intense, and this will push your boundaries. We recommend this for those of you who enjoy experiences like The 17th Door, Bl4km4ss, and other more extreme immersive experiences.

MurderCo: Pure Evil starts with a distinct opening that sets a more brutal tone immediately. Previous participants will remember the lavish opening room complete with a fireplace and comfortable couches—but Pure Evil does not offer that to you at the start. Instead, you’re led into a colder, harsher room and see a different side of Black Market Escape Rooms.

Haunting is a website designed to introduce you to the most ground-breaking immersive experiences and underground haunts out there, create a welcoming community of like-minded individuals passionate about this art-form and epower creators to produce their best work.
