Outdoor 'escape game' brings thriller flicks to life
POWDER SPRINGS, Ga. - You and your friends are locked in a cabin, in the middle of the woods. And it’s not just any cabin, it’s a killer’s cabin. Will you become his next victim…or can you escape before the clock runs out?
Yes, that’s probably the plot of a few horror flicks out there. But it’s also one of the thrilling experiences awaiting you at Escape Woods. Escape Woods takes the popular concept of the “escape room” and transplants it to the outdoors, setting up escape adventures on a 60-acre wooded property known as Sleepy Hollow Farm in Powder Springs. Escape Woods opened a year ago this month, and currently features three games, with two more on the way. Along with The Cabin (described above), guests can try out The Bunker, which challenges them with infiltrating an underground bunker, and The Dig, which revolves around a valuable ancient artifact missing somewhere in the woods. Each of the games lasts one hour, and may be booked online.
Good Day Atlanta’s Paul Milliken is a big fan of horror/thriller movies, and decided to live out his dream of starring in one by spending some time at Escape Woods. But did he make it out of The Cabin in time?? Stay tuned…
