Whispers of the Cursed Carnival have haunted the town since it abruptly closed after a group of teenagers vanished without a trace. For over a decade, the site has been left to rot—until now. Recently, locals have reported strange lights flickering and eerie music playing between 11 PM and midnight. When the police were called to investigate, they found only chilling silence.
You arrive just before 11 PM, heart racing with anticipation. Suddenly, the carnival springs to life—the lights blaze, the haunting music fills the air, and the gates slam shut behind you with a bone-jarring thud. You’re trapped.
As the vibrant colours dance in the darkness, a sense of dread creeps over you. In the shadows, you catch a glimpse of something watching, lurking, waiting.
Can you unravel the dark secrets of the carnival and uncover what happened to the missing teenagers before you too are swallowed by its sinister grip? The clock is ticking, and with each passing second, the shadows draw closer. Time is not on your side…
Creepy Carnival is a spooky escape experience in which you must solve puzzles, find clues and collect items to escape from the haunted ride before it claims another victim!
