This was a great experience to have. Our host William was really nice and he had a VERY good posh accent when talking through the walkie-talkie! We did The Curse of the Pharaoh and my daughter has done several others. The atmosphere was great, really creepy and it made our spines tingle. The puzzles were hard but not too hard and even though some of the sound effects made you jump, it was all very fun and enjoyable. My daughter screamed when we were in the last room, but that was just the shock! Great for birthday parties and family outings. It is also a must do if you are visiting Oxford.
