An unmarked file dated December 27th, 1968 has just been discovered in the FBI archives. Inside: an anonymous tip claiming to know the Zodiac killer’s origins… and an address to a remote cabin in Northern Georgia.
For over 50 years, this file sat sealed, overlooked, forgotten. Was it buried on purpose? Or simply lost in the chaos of a nationwide manhunt?
Now, your team has been tasked with investigating the file. As you step into the past you can’t help but think, will this cabin unlock the true identity of one of America’s most notorious serial killers or will it be a DEAD end. The bureau awaits your findings…
WHAT TO EXPECT?
Origins: The Zodiac Files is not your typical escape room—this is immersive murder mystery meets puzzle theater.
You and your team will seperate into two teams & step into a 75-minute investigative experience unlike any other, where uncovering key clues doesn’t just move the game forward—it triggers scripted story moments that plunge you deeper into the narrative. These interactions offer chilling insights into the minds of those entangled in the Zodiac mystery, blurring the line between gameplay and storytelling.
Expect thought-provoking puzzles, atmospheric environments, and a storyline with real weight. Every discovery you make pushes the investigation forward—and every choice reveals more than you bargained for.
This is an escape room with narrative and purpose. A place where the story doesn’t just unfold around you—
you become part of it.
WILL IT BE SCARY?
Origins: The Zodiac Files isn’t a haunted house—but some might say it’s better! In this experience you’ll become fully immersed into the story we have created!
Think of it like being dropped into a gripping, edge-of-your-seat murder mystery film—the kind that has you completely locked in, heart racing, eyes glued to the screen. Now imagine you’re inside that movie. That’s the kind of suspense we’re delivering.
This experience is GUTS & GORE FREE, instead it offers Hollywood-level sets, immersive special effects, and story-driven narratives that provide jump scares designed to keep you alert—not terrified. The fear here is psychological, atmospheric, and always in service to the story. You’re not just trying to escape… you’re trying to solve a case that doesn’t want to be solved.
You’ll encounter moments of dim lighting, sudden surprises, and one puzzle that requires a brave participant to enter a confined, dark space—a brief but intense moment that adds to immersion. If claustrophobia is a concern, we recommend bringing someone ready to take on that role of the game. (Please let us know who that is prior to starting your investigation)
So yes, it will be tense, thrilling, and immersive—but not overwhelming. Our goal isn’t to scare you away… it’s to pull you deeper into the story.
IS THERE AN AGE REQUIREMENT?
While we’d love for everyone to experience Origins: The Zodiac Files, the content and tone of this experience are designed for a mature audience.
Think of it like a suspenseful thriller movie—it’s intense, immersive, and contains thematic elements not suitable for younger children. For this reason, we do not recommend the experience for anyone under the age of 14.
If minors (ages 14–17) are participating, at least two adults (18 or older) must join them inside the room. This ensures their comfort, safety, and that they have trusted adults present throughout the experience.
Please note: NO REFUNDS will be given if your group chooses to leave early due to fear or discomfort, especially involving children. We’ve designed this room with intention, and we stand by the age guidelines for a reason.
Thanks for understanding—and helping us provide the best possible experience for everyone involved.
