im sitting in the car, parked in front of cross roads, replaying the last 60mins in my head. we did the weeping witch, and there is truly so much to unpack. our group has done a good amount of escape rooms (14+) and nothing has compared. lets talk about the room itself. im a high-tech snob, and the "high-techiness" of the room will make or break my experience. the weeping witch is by far number 1 on my overall list of escape rooms, and number 1 on my list of "high-techiness". there are so many details to this room its truly insane. the weeping witch's scare factor is 4/5. as someone who enjoys horror movies and is an avid universal studios halloween horror nights goer, this room scared me SO GOOD. i was scared poopless but i had so many good laughs and screams. i almost cried. you also get a friend to help you during your adventure OKAY NOW, our gamemaster LIV. liv if you see this, you are genuinely the best. i cant express the amount of love, appreciation, and attention to detail liv put into our experience. from the moment we signed our wavier to when we left, she was truly a vibe. she played a "secret role" in our experience in the escape room and i will never forget it. THANK YOU LIV!! WE YOU! also shoutout to alex (i believe thats his name) for being so humorous with us. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE book an escape room here if youve been thinking about it or if youre not thinking about it. its $42 per person, but its a $100 experience! read more

David was our game master a few weeks back, we had a huge group with a lot of latecomers and changes, he totally took it in stride and made it a great experience for us. (Enough that I came back to write a review even after forgetting for 3 weeks haha) We additionally loved the room! I'd done Hex Room once before and the second time did not disappoint! read more

We did Weeping Witch and our game master was Liv!! She was outstanding. It's so hard to find an escape room with a live actor. This venue had high reviews and it lived up to it. Weeping Witch was probably the scariest escape room I've ever done and we were surprised that we escaped with THREE SECONDS left. lmao. Highly recommend pushing your limits and trying out this room! Impressive and creative puzzles that were very interactive. Thank you again, Liv for creating such a spooky and immersive environment!! Memories were made!! read more

Cross Roads Escape Games - Weeping Witch - Escape Games Near Me - Anaheim, California

The Weeping Witch escape room has been on our list to try for a while. We've done around sixty escape rooms, but so far we haven't tried any rooms with a live actor due to a little bit of fear factor. Recently, we were chatting with our game master at another escape room, and they mentioned that The Weeping Witch was a good first room to try with a live actor. With those comments, we went ahead and booked it a few weeks later. Cross Roads Escape Games is easy to find. It's located on a corner in an industrial area and is well marked. There is plenty of parking. The waiting area is spacious, and there is an additional larger waiting room for overflow. There are lockers by the front door to store your belongings. Waivers must be completed in person by scanning a QR code when you arrive, so don't be late. We arrived before our friends, so we chatted a bit with David who would be our game master. Once our friends arrived, we watched an introductory video and entered the room in single file. All parts of the overall experience are pretty dimly lit, and there is definitely a spooky vibe. This was definitely a great introduction to a live-actor room, since the live actor only appears periodically, and you have a hint as to when they are coming. The room has a mix of linear and non-linear puzzles, and we split up at times to conquer different parts of the room. There is a good mix of combo locks, a few key locks, and a lot of great original mechanical puzzles. There are also parts where the whole team must participate together. The clue system is very original, and you must have a certain skill to obtain hints. One person will have to do a little crawling. This was definitely one of the harder rooms we have done. David mentioned that this room only has a 30% escape rate, and we finished with only five seconds left. They do not give extra time even if you are close since the ending is pretty dramatic and is all automated. Bring your A-game! David was an excellent game master. We enjoyed chatting with him both before and after the room. He added some comedic relief via the clue system in an otherwise spooky room. He gave us a few well timed nudges as the clock was ticking quickly, helping us escape with the narrowest of margins. For such a great room, it is very reasonably priced at a flat rate of only $42 per person. This room was probably in our top three of all time. Highly recommended! read more

My brother and I brought our parents, we had an excellent time. Our game master was a lot of fun, had great funny comments while we played, and gave the right little 'hints' when we were stuck without giving us straight out clues to just help guide us. We will be back, I want to bring my friends to try out the more creepy themed escapes they have. Thanks for a great time! read more

Loved it so much the first time (Fun House) that my group had to come back just weeks later for the Weeping Witch room. My group of 4 finished with 1:50 left on the clock. There were lots of fun out-of-the-box puzzles to make the games unique even at the same escape room venue. This room had a live actor with some jump scares - sorry for my Tourette's that came out! Our game master Mina was fantastic from start to finish. The interactive element and humor was so enjoyable. Cannot wait to go for the Hex Room once we get a group of 6 coordinated for it. read more

Coraline was awesome! Loved the experience for the weeping witch, everyone was crying

Excellent escape room. Just got back from doing the Hexxed room. Super cool how they cast you into roles. Kaley was an awesome host. We will definitely be back read more

Overall: The rooms we did were The Weeping Witch and the Hex Room! We had a group of 5 and I feel like that is enough to get the rooms completed. The rooms are well decorated and super immersive. The production quality was amazing. I also want to say shout out to our game masters Mina and Molly. They were both great and I loved that they were super into it too! Great vibes all around here. Experience: The rooms here are on the smaller side, but it's packed with so much detail and so many different puzzles. The systems for the rooms are all super unique compared to some escape rooms I've completed before. Hex Room: I loved the part where you take a quiz and get assigned a role. We had the minimum amount of people for this room and it was still super fun! It can be a bit challenging if you've never done any sort of escape room before. Weeping Witch: This room is definitely very spooky! The room is super high tech and filled with a lot of unique puzzles (not just your typical lock and key type of puzzles). All the effects were super cool with the lights, animatronics, etc. This room is a bit more challenging since it's nonlinear. The Witch (live actor) was very good at providing a lot of scares! Price: Average price for an escape room. I would say it's pretty affordable for such a high tech room! Parking: There is plenty of parking - we had no issues finding parking. read more

I've done a few (less than 10) escape rooms in my life, and all have been good; however, Cross Road's Weeping Witch room was by far the BEST escape room I've ever done and probably ever will do. The production quality of the room was amazing. There are tons of great effects that make the room feel so immersive. The puzzles in the room all make sense and can be understood without the need of any hints. The room is also very scary, and me and my party were so scared multiple times, but in a fun way. Overall an amazing experience and will certainly be back to try the other rooms at this location. read more

My group and I completed the weeping witch room and our game master was Liv. She was the absolute best and the room COMPLETELY exceeded our expectations. We are pretty experienced and well versed in horror escape rooms, but wow. This one was incredible. Liv was incredible. The other employees were incredible and extremely welcoming. We left with laughs and had an amazing time. We will definitely be returning and trying the other rooms. Highly recommend for horror fanatics and just anyone looking for a good time. This escape room was immersive, high-tech, open late, and just overall everything we were looking for. read more

Weeping Witch was amazing 10/10 experience. Our game master Liv did her big one and made the experience 10 times better and funny.

First time here. Such an exhilarating experience in the Hex room. I think this is one of my top escape room experiences. Mina was also super sweet, lively, encouraging, knew her ish very well, and so many great things. Wish there were small snacks like granola bars or jerky to purchase but overall, my experience was amazing. I walked in the building feeling "whatever " but with each minute that passed, and with more info that I was given, I got more and more excited. I drove 2.5 hours away but hope I can go back soon. read more

My family and I finally did The Weeping Witch at Crossroads. It was so much fun and Will was a great game master for us. He made sure to support us when we needed it and we were able to finish the room with only 19 seconds to spare. This was our first scary room with a live actor and I would have to say, it was frightening yet exciting at the same time. It's sad that we've finished all the rooms here but we look forward to the future for any new rooms here and will definitely come back. The staff is great here which makes us want to keep coming back! read more

Cross Roads Escape Games - So much fun and definitely memorable! - Escape Games Near Me - Anaheim, California

Love all the escape room at this place! I've done all three of them and can't give more glowing reviews. David was an amazing game master. I love his witty comments and back and forth interactions. Most game masters would only respond if you want a hint, but in weeping witch I appreciate his quick witted responses and commentary to add a little humor into the already scary room. All rooms are pretty non-linear. Funhouse is a non-scary, circus magician theme. Weeping Witch is a horror, actor supernatural room. Hex room is a horror, multi-character & teamwork room. All unique, interesting puzzles and makes you really do a double take to get through the tasks! Wish I can do them all over again! read more

Thank you Mina for a terror-ific escape room experience! Immersive ambience, challenging puzzles, enticing plot. + The scare aspect was very appealing and effective. The scared people in our group really huddled up quivering with their eyes sealed shut. + I love that in order to get a hint, you have to tell the doll a joke. Never seen that before! I'm full of jokes, but I wasn't mentally prepared for this foreign concept. I shouldn't have hesitated, and should've just dished out jokes earlier on, save us more time. We were stuck for too long. . Some puzzles were reasonably challenging, others felt a bit obscure or unreasonable to figure out without a lil help. + Good amount of parking. . I've been to a different horror escape venue where the actors actually scream at you and drag you around, so now my standards are high... Nevertheless, I had a wonderful time at Cross Roads. read more

I went with a group of 6 and can say, they have one of the best escape room we have done and we have done over 50 rooms. We did both Fun House and Weeping Witch. Mina was one of our game master and she did an amazing job and was very interactive. You can tell she loves what she does and there to make the best experience for the customers. Highly recommend all 3 rooms here. read more

Had a spectacular time doing the Weeping witch room on a Friday evening. Our host Liv was super helpful, entertaining, and made the experience all the more pleasant. Big shout out to Cross Roads for being very accommodating as my group arrived late, but with a call ahead it was totally fine. The room definitely lives up to its difficulty/horror so be prepared, but it was one of the more enjoyable escape rooms I've done! read more

Just finished Weeping Witch with my family (of 5) and it was terrifying, challenging, and fun all wrapped up into one great game! It had many surprising and scary elements with a set that was incredibly immersive! Our GM Mina helped create such a realistic atmosphere that we were laughing one minute and screaming the next. Weeping Witch should be on everyone's Escape Room Bucket List! read more

Our game master Mina was super awesome. Weeping witch is a must play for escape room lovers

We had Will as a game master. He definitely made it a pleasant experience for the whole group. Thank you!

The design of "The Hex" is extremely creative and engaging, unlike any room I've ever played before. I highly recommend this room, but there are things you should consider: -The game will split your party into different rooms. As a result, the game plays best with EXACTLY 6 people. -Assuming you have 6 people, everyone will have ample things to do instead of one person quarterbacking the entire experience. This could be great for escape if you have a team of more experienced players or possibly detrimental if someone is less experienced. -The theme is a horror movie. As someone who does not enjoy horror movies, I was creeped out but never scared to the point of not being able to progress in the room. The 2/5 scary rating on the website seemed appropriate to how scary the room actually was. -I felt like the challenge of this room was fair and appropriately advertised. The room was a bit dark and had flickering lights, so sometimes I had difficulty seeing what I was working on. Not a big deal in the end. Finally, I have to say a huge thank you to David, our game master. He explained the rules and the setting very well to our group and did not go overboard with hints. We were able to escape and solve all 6 bonus survival puzzles with 2:45 to spare! read more

Our group has done The Hex Room and Fun House before, however, The Weeping Witch is still very impressive to us. Personally I appreciate the cinematic setting of the room and the apperance of TWW, which made me feel like I was in the real horror movie. The light, the smoke and the live actor really made the experience so scary and special at the same time. Shout out to our game master Zack for making the experience extra fun (and made us scream twice) and was so helpful with hints! Thank you Zack!! read more

We entered the fun house. Liv was our host. She is awesome! We had two 10 year olds with us. We did the adult version and finished with 5 seconds left. What a blast! Highly recommend!!! Thank you Cross Roads. read more

From start to finish, amazing experience 5/5. We played The Fun House room. Shout out to energetic and enthusiastic staff Mina who helped our group hyped up to begin with, very clear on instructions so we could really focus and enjoy the 60 min. It was perfect and we managed to escape with only 11 seconds left. We're definitely going back for another room to escape!! read more

We did the hex room with a group of 8! Some people were more experienced than others, but that worked well for us and was so fun! We escaped with 21 minutes to spare! David was an awesome game master. He explained the rules well and made our experience smooth and fun. It is horror movie themed, but felt more like a thriller!The room is darker with flickering lights. If you have a group where people are scared, I think it's still do-able. Would just highly recommend more than 6 people so you can pair with someone. Overall wonderful experience and look forward to going back for the the weeping witch! read more

Really fun Hex room !! Even if u do multiple Times there's always new rooms to do. David was great! Enthusiastic and helpful read more

This is was a fun way to spend some time with the family. With each puzzle that was solved the kids were so excited. Liv kept us on our toes, and helped us navigate our way through everything. Loved the puppet doll. He kept it fun. My daughter can't wait to come back for her birthday. Thankyou for the experience Liv! You are awesome! read more

We did The Weeping Witch escape room, and it was such a blast! The game was challenging, immersive, and just the right amount of creepy; especially if you're not a fan of some darkness (you've been warned!). The puzzles were clever and kept us thinking the whole time, and the atmosphere really pulled us into the story. Zakk was awesome, super friendly, helpful, and made sure we had a great experience from start to finish. You can tell the staff here really care about creating a memorable time for their guests. We'll definitely be back to Cross Roads Escape Games to take on another room soon! Highly recommend it if you're looking for something thrilling and different to do with friends or family. read more

Cross Roads Escape Games - We escaped! Barely... - Escape Games Near Me - Anaheim, California

Super fun! Coraline was a great game master and super helpful when we asked for hints. Fun puzzles and overall a really good time!

We did the fun house and Mina was absolutely spectacular host! She was so patient and made the experience so great!

I booked the Fun House escape room for my daughters birthday. She and 4 of her friends did it together. She specifically wanted one that wasn't scary. They had so much and said their Game Master David was so funny and gave great clues to help them along the way. Even though they didn't escape in the hour, they kept saying how fun it was and how much they enjoyed David. There's even a lounge room in the front where I was able to wait comfortably for them while they played the game. (Even the lounge area has some a few clues to solve!) Thank you, David, and Cross Roads Escape Games, for making this a fun day for my daughter and her friends! read more

If I had a wife, I would divorce her to marry Coraline (if she would have me). She made not only my, but my 9 other friends, experience so wonderful. I would go back just for her, but the Hex Room was so incredibly fun and unique. Highly recommend this place! read more

We just visited cross roads for the third time. I'd highly recommend all three rooms. The Weeping witch was so scary and fun!!! Definitely gets your blood pumping. Thanks Niko! read more

Big thank you to our game hosts Tara (FH), Zakk (Hex) and Niko (WW)! Fun House was a great warm up room with the wacky turns and twists. The concept of Hex room was great, it was our first time doing a room like that, definitely tested our communication skills. Weeping Witch was our first room with a live actor and really added the scare factor that was needed. We had a really great time! read more
