While on a recent trip to RI Riddle Room, my daughters and I discovered we had planned our trip one day off. That was because their brand new, immersive experience escape room, Monster in the Museum, was going to open the very next day.

This massive, immersive escape room not only boasts the largest footprint in the region, it also introduces something new to Rhode Island—live actors.

One longtime fan favorite is the Rocky Point-themed room, complete with a House of Horrors cart you can sit in and a mini Music Express on the wall—details locals love!

Most of the rooms here are family-friendly too, but the newest addition might not be the best fit for younger players.

Inside the “Monster in the Museum” Experience

Set inside a "Museum of the Unknown", guests interact with museum exhibits to uncover hidden secrets until ultimately the "monster" is unleashed. Staff warn that the intensity and live actor element could be too scary for some.
