Horror escape room
in Brisbane
Our horror escape room in Brisbane is the one people whisper about — a séance gone wrong in a 1920s Queenslander, a live actor, and puzzles you solve while your nerves are shot. Strictly 16+.
Actor sessions run evenings only — book ahead, they sell out first.

A séance, a missing medium, and one very wrong house
1926. A spirit medium vanished mid-séance in this house, and the family boarded it up the same week. Your team is the research crew sent in to document what's left — and about fifteen minutes in, you stop believing the 'documenting' part. Low light, period-correct furniture, and sound design we spent two months tuning.
This is the only room with a live performer. She never touches you — the rules are read twice — but she will be closer than you'd like. Escape rate: 31%. Chicken rate: higher than we'll admit.
- A live actor — choreographed, never touching, always unnerving.
- Puzzles built for shaking hands: nothing requires precision you won't have.
- Safe-word exit at any time, no judgement, no extra charge.
What the Horror Room costs
Horror sessions cost a little more — the performer isn't free and neither is the lighting rig she demands.
2 players — brave pairs only. The room reads confidence and tests it.
- Private session with actor
- 60 minutes
- Safety debrief included
3–4 players — enough people to hide behind, few enough to keep it scary.
- Private session with actor
- Photo in the séance room after
- Free rebook once
5 players — max group. More people, more screaming, statistically better odds.
- Private session with actor
- Group photo
- Second-room discount same day

Your session, step by step
Horror runs differently — longer briefing, stricter rules. Plan 90 minutes total.
Book an evening slot
Actor sessions run 17:00–23:00. Daytime bookings get the no-actor version — still spooky, minus the company.
Arrive and read the rules
Two rules sheets, signed. Short version: you don't touch the performer, she doesn't touch you.
The séance briefing
Ten minutes of story in the parlour. Learn the safe word — 'daylight' — before the candles go on.
Sixty minutes inside
Three rooms, escalating. Puzzles are genuinely solvable under stress — we tested on our most nervous friends.
Exit and breathe
Lights up, actor bows, everyone's suddenly brave again. The debrief is funnier than the game was scary.
Compare notes
Your game master tells you what the performer was doing while you weren't looking. It's worse than you think.

Every room at Cazinnie is a different world. Most groups come back within a month — the second room is where the rivalry starts.
A look inside the Horror Room
Shot after sessions end — nobody photographs well mid-scream.
The séance table. It does more than it should.
Candlelight round — everyone's favourite and least favourite bit.
The actor is a professional. The fear is not.
Our performer rotates between two actors — both theatre-trained, both meticulous about the no-touch line. Behind the camera, your game master runs light and sound cues like a stage manager, because that's what it is.
The humans behind the hauntings are on the about page.
