Welcome to Paranormal Night Shift, your one-stop destination for spine-chilling tales and mysterious encounters in the dark. In today’s episode, we have a bone-chilling story sent in by Tommy from Boston, Massachusetts, titled “The Escape Room.”
Tommy, recently single and ready to mingle, reluctantly agrees to a double date set up by his brother and his girlfriend. The plan is to do something unusual to break the ice, and after scouring Groupon, Tommy stumbles upon Jack’s House of Horrors, an escape room. With Halloween just around the corner, it seems like the perfect choice, and the price is right. Little did they know, this night would become a nightmare.
Upon arrival, the first ominous sign is the house’s remote location and eerie appearance. They knock on the door, and a man who looks straight out of a horror movie greets them. The house reeks of sweat and sulfur, setting an unsettling atmosphere from the start.
As they enter the escape room, they’re met with a damp, dark, and musty environment. The walls are covered in plastic, and fake blood is splattered everywhere. The objective is to solve a murder mystery within an hour. However, things take a sinister turn when the steel door slams shut behind them, and the lights go out.
Tommy and his companions soon realize that this escape room is unlike any other. The fake props turn out to be disturbingly real, with actual blood, dead rats, and a putrid stench that fills the room. Panic sets in when Tommy cuts his hand on broken glass, pleading for an exit, but the voice over the speaker remains cold and unresponsive.
As they investigate further, the horrifying truth becomes apparent – this is not a game; it’s a sick and twisted reality. They come across severed body parts, and Jack’s eerie laughter echoes through the speakers. Suddenly, the lights go out, and Tommy feels a presence in the room with them. Panic intensifies as they hear the screams of their companions, assaulted by an unseen assailant.
In the darkness and chaos, Tommy fights back, striking blindly at the figure in the room. Then, everything goes black as he’s hit from behind. It’s the last thing he remembers.
Tommy awakens in his own bed, drenched in sweat, convinced it was all a terrifying dream. But reality creeps back in when his brother calls, suggesting they go to an escape room that evening with Katie. Strangely, Tommy declines the offer, still shaken by his nightmare.
Weeks pass, and Tommy and Katie’s relationship blossoms. However, Tommy stumbles upon a news article about a sinister escape room in Boston where people were being trapped and harmed. He can’t help but wonder if his dream was a warning, a premonition, or something paranormal protecting them from a nightmarish fate.
