Halloween at a hotel can never be this good evil!

Mystery Manila and Discovery Suites Manila present a special Halloween Mystery Event entitled Dark Discoveries. Running from October 25 to 31, 2023 at Discovery Suites Manila in Ortigas, players can choose between 2 differently-themed escape rooms: a horror mystery entitled Rebecca’s Return, and a family-friendly detective mystery entitled Secret Spies.

In Rebecca’s Return, the weary ghost of Rebecca returns to haunt an abandoned hotel room. As paranormal investigators, you are tasked to banish the spirit and finally put her to res, all within 40 minutes.

In Secret Spies, you play as detectives. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to recover the top secret files from the hotel room of an enemy spy before he returns in the next 40 minutes.

What happens if I don't get to solve it?

If your time is up and you haven’t solved the mystery, you have the option of trying it again at a discounted rate. This will be subject to booking availability.

Can I get a clue or seek help during the game?

Yes. There will be a gamekeeper who will be with you the entire time. The gamekeeper will not intervene at any point unless requested to do so. If you ask for a clue, the gamekeeper will provide you with it but every clue requested will equate to a 5 minute addition to your final time. The more clues you ask for, the more time that will be added to your final finishing time. You will have a fixed amount of 30 minutes maximum to play the game.

Age limit:

Groups with minors below 18 years old should be accompanied by at least 1 adult.

What if I'm late for the game? Will time be deducted?:

If you are less than 5 minutes late, we will still accommodate you with your original booking schedule. However if you are late for more than 5 minutes, you can still proceed with the game upon arrival but your time allotted to solve the mystery will be reduced. For example, if your booking schedule is at 1pm until 1:30pm and you arrive at 1:10pm, you can still proceed with the game but your time inside the room will only be 25 minutes instead of 30 minutes.

What happens if I solve the Mystery?

The sole objective of the activity is for you to have an unforgettable experience and to try something new and challenging by solving the mystery or by working your way through riddles to escape from the theater. Other than the fulfilling accomplishment from solving the mystery, we also have a leaderboard for the fastest teams. The quicker you solve it, the more chances getting into the leaderboard.

Can I walk-in?

Yes! However, please take note that it’s subject to availability.

What is I really want to play alone?

You can play alone if you really want to but you have to pay for the price of two players. The mystery is designed to be solved by at least two players and a maximum of six. We believe that it is better and much more fun to solve a mystery together.
