Soest is getting a new leisure highlight: A new location for Verschlusssache Escape Rooms opens on 15th April – and with it a completely new gaming experience. Adventurous individuals can already secure their slots. Book the first escape room in Soest here.
An opening like in the film: „The Haunted Inn“
The first escape room in Soest is called „The Enchanted Inn“ – and the title says it all. Instead of a classic puzzle room, an immersive story awaits you, which begins even before the actual game.
You find yourselves as a hiking group seeking shelter from a storm – and stumbling upon a mysterious inn. But something isn't right: a curse hangs over the place, and it's up to you to help the innkeeper and solve the mystery.
Particularly exciting: the game master is not just an observer but part of the story himself. As a character within the game, he accompanies you through the adventure – a concept that makes the escape room significantly more intense and interactive.
More than a classic escape room
The new location in Soest deliberately focuses on a different concept than many classic escape rooms:
- Acting instead of screen cues
- Direct interaction with characters
- Story-driven experience
- Atmosphere across multiple levels
The „haunted inn“ is set in a richly detailed medieval-themed environment. Music, scenery, and puzzles intertwine to create an experience that feels more like a live adventure than a typical puzzle game.
Perfect for groups, families and beginners
The game is played in small groups, typically with 2 to 6 people. Particularly interesting: there are also adapted versions, so the room is suitable for beginners as well as families and younger players.
While logic and the ability to combine factors take centre stage, so do communication, teamwork, and immersion in the story.
Starts on 15 April – bookable now
The official opening of the 13th Closure location is planned for April 15, 2026. It is already clear that there is great interest. Those who wish to be among the first groups should book an appointment early.
With the new location, Verschlusssache is further expanding its offerings – and bringing one of its most elaborate escape room concepts to Soest.
Outlook: Further adventures to follow
The „haunted inn“ is just the beginning. Two more rooms are already planned and will expand the offerings in Soest. The highlight will certainly be the horror escape room themed around vampires in the old, listed vaulted cellar. Furthermore, as a ninja group, you will break into a rival Kung Fu school. You'll find all the escape rooms in Soest here. 2026 will be an exciting year!
