Our Story
What started as a passion project in a converted warehouse has grown into Los Angeles' most awarded escape room experience.
Born from a Love of Mysteries
In 2018, siblings Marcus and Elena Chen combined their passions—Marcus's background in theatrical set design and Elena's expertise in puzzle engineering—to create something extraordinary.
Starting with a single room called "The Detective's Study" in a 1,200 sq ft warehouse in East Hollywood, they poured everything into crafting an experience that felt truly immersive.
Word spread quickly. Within six months, they expanded to three rooms. Within two years, they moved to their current 15,000 sq ft facility on Mystery Lane, now home to eight meticulously designed experiences.
Our Mission
"To create immersive experiences that challenge the mind, unite teams, and leave lasting memories. Every puzzle, every set piece, every moment is designed to transport you into another world."
— Marcus & Elena Chen, Founders
