The Difference Between an Escape Room and a Haunted House

    What is the difference between an escape room and a haunted house, you ask? Well, for starters, escape rooms are open all year round! The fun with us doesn’t have to be only seasonal!
    The obvious difference is that a haunted house is typically a walking tour, while an escape room is an immersive puzzle-solving experience. In an escape room, you get 60 minutes of interactive adventure with plenty of clues to find and solve; you can’t just waltz straight through!

    For haunted houses, the themes are all meant to give you a good scare, but this doesn’t have to be true for an escape room. While our horror themed rooms, Cabin 13, Georgie, and Zombie Rising, are certainly spooky, we also offer the delightful Sugar Rush, full of bright colors and pleasant treats.
    
     Haunted houses also rely largely on scare actors to drive your experience, popping out at you at every turn. Here at Legacy Escape, we don’t use live actors, but that doesn’t mean we won’t try and spook you in other ways! If you are interested in an experience with live actors, come play a game during Halloween for a run-in with zombies or clowns!
