Once inside Addison was very welcoming. We are relatively inexperienced with escape rooms so he gave us some basic tips to set us up for success. We did the Under Pressure room which is themed around a distillery. The room was fun and had some unique puzzles unlike others I had encountered in escape rooms. We definitely had a great time and are already talking about plans to come back!

We've already played both rooms, but we will definitely be going back to play them again... and to take our kids to meet 'The Ripper'. They have put SO much thought and work into both rooms... it's hard to say which is my favorite bc they're both awesome rooms. Hands down in our top 3 and we've done hundreds of escape rooms. Check them out... you won't regret it!!

Literally the Best Escape Room Experience Ever! Okay... we're still talking about this days later…read more My family and I went to Nocturne Adventures not knowing what to expect, and WOW--this place blew our minds. It felt like we walked right into a full-blown horror movie. The vibe? Intense. The acting? On point. The storyline? Wild. And YES... you're actually being chased which somehow makes the puzzles feel even more real and urgent. Pure adrenaline from start to finish! But here's what really made it special: My mom is Deaf, and a lot of times she's left out of experiences like this (escape rooms can be SO fast-paced). I told her I'd interpret for her, but then one of the actors started signing in ASL. We were all stunned in the best way. It turned the night from fun to unforgettable. My mom felt seen and included, and we all got to experience it together. It's rare to find something this immersive and inclusive. Nocturne Adventures nailed it on every level. I can't believe all of this happens in their basement--it's truly next level. If you're even thinking about booking... just do it. You won't regret it. Thank you for creating a family memory we'll never forget!

I have no idea what this kick ass escape room is doing in teeny-tiny Hudson, NC just off Hwy 321…read morebut I'm so glad they're there! We thought we knew good escape rooms having visited a few impressive ones (and a few not so impressive ones) in Charlotte, but Xscape's Curse of the Mummy room put them all to shame! My husband's family lives in Valdese, just 20 minutes or so from this escape room, and when we were looking for something fun to do with his sister for her birthday, we decided to book at Xscape. They only have the one room right now but are working hard to open a second (involving diffusing a bomb, I'm told) in the coming months. The Curse of the Mummy room incorporates amazing props, immersive "scenery," and incredible technology. Seriously, it's the best room we've ever experienced, hands down. I don't want to give away too much, but will tell you that I'm still emptying sand out of my shoes a couple hours after escaping with just a few minutes to spare. ;)

Two adults hadn't done an escape room before and the others of us have done about 2-5 each. We had a blast! Our game master Nyles was exceptional - very informative and let us do our thing but provided clear hints when we asked for them. It was a great room for groups of 4+ people with multiple puzzles that could be worked on at one time (nonlinear). All 6 of us were engaged and really enjoyed it. We will definitely be back to do the other 3 rooms!

Unfortunately, there's only one room right now, but they're working on building a new one soon. I can't wait till more opens up. This one's unlike the others and I'm glad that it's closer to us than some of the other great ones we've experienced.
