According to The Hollywood Reporter, Disney has announced that they will be opening up new escape room themed around Only Murders in the Building. Disney’s Hulu and The Escape Game are introducing Only Murders in London, an all-new adventure inspired by the upcoming sixth season of the Emmy-winning comedy series. Starting Dec. 9.
“We’re excited to team up with Disney Entertainment and bring a new chapter of Hulu’s Only Murders in the Building to The Escape Game,” said Daniel Daher, senior director of Marketing at The Escape Game via The Hollywood Reporter. “With the sixth season heading to London, we had the perfect opportunity to reimagine the experience with fresh twists and surprises. We can’t wait for fans to step into the story and test their detective skills.”
As per The Hollywood Reporter notes, the experience correlates with the premiere of the sixth season of the series. The new season will see the main cast heading overseas for the first time, trading New York City for London and a new international investigation. Only Murders premieres Dec. 8 on Hulu and Hulu on Disney+ for bundle subscribers in the U.S. and on Disney+ internationally.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, the official description of the experience: “As Charles, Oliver and Mabel take their crime-solving talents across the pond, Escape Game guests will work together to uncover clues and test their detective instincts against the clock. Designed for both longtime fans and newcomers alike, the interactive adventure will bring the humor, intrigue and unexpected twists of Only Murders in the Building into the real world. Expect hidden passageways, familiar props and clever nods to the show throughout.”
As per The Hollywood Reporter, the logline for season six is: “After successfully bringing the guilty to justice once again, Charles, Oliver and Mabel embark on their hardest case yet when the next victim — Cinda Canning — arrives at their doorstep, summoning them to London to catch her killer. Our beloved trio of true crime-solving podcasters must now navigate their way through the home of the cozy murder mystery, replete with a whole new collection of suspicious and particularly English-eccentric characters. But can they follow in the footsteps of the woman whose podcast started it all for them … without having their story end the same as hers?”
Only Murders in the Building is available to stream on Hulu.
