Over the few years, escape room attractions have been popping up throughout Buffalo (and the rest of the country). While you often find them within local shopping malls, you can experience one of the best and most unique over on Louisiana Street. It may look inconspicuous from the outside, but all of your pop culture-fueled dreams are hiding inside once you find it.
If you’re a fan of the hit Netflix series Stranger Things, you’re probably already looking forward to July 4th, when the whole gang returns to the screen for the premiere of season three. While the show takes place in the fictional world of Hawkins, Indiana, the small town was actually inspired by one right here in New York! (Don’t believe us? You can read all about it right here.) If you’re looking for a fun way to gear up for the new season, there’s a Stranger Things-themed escape room right here in Buffalo that you need to check out!
Head to Louisiana Street to experience one of the coolest attractions in town: Queen City Escape Room.
