Pick from a wide range of start times, make your own way to the venue (located in a former Victorian cotton mill), and challenge yourself to complete the puzzles in time? This movie-themed escape room experience is perfect for film buffs.
Welcome to Merlin's Magic Academy!
As apprentice Witches & Wizards, your final and greatest challenge awaits you. To become a true graduate of the academy you must unlock the secrets of the room, create enchanted potions, solve mystical puzzles and use real wands to cast spells with the help of a rather mysterious guide.
You must harness your magic to find the mythical beast that lies deep within the academy. Only then can you graduate as Master Witches & Wizards and use your new found magical powers for the good of all!
Perfect for those new to escape rooms, Merlin's Magic Academy is our most enchanting and family-friendly room, inspired by (but not affiliated with) the likes of Harry Potter, BBC's Merlin and The Worst Witch!
