Hansel & Gretel horror Escape Room Melbourne

GRIMM: Hansel & Gretel Horror escape room Melbourne bookings open soon

a fairytale nightmare


Lost and alone, deep within a menacing forest, the air is thick with the sweet scent of gingerbread as you approach what looks like a cottage in a clearing in the trees. Its candy-coated walls glisten enticingly, but unease coils in your stomach. You know the tale... the fate that befell Hansel and Gretel.


You step inside, the door creaking ominously behind you. The witch’s presence is everywhere, a silent threat lurking in every shadow. Suddenly, whispers fill the room. You turn and see them—the ghosts of Hansel and Gretel. They beckon you closer, eyes filled with desperation and determination. Their clues are cryptic, but they hold the key to your survival.


The ghosts of Hansel and Gretel are on your side, but in this twisted fairytale, escaping the witch will be no small feat.

Had an amazing time at Escape This... very fun and thrilling

 to experience. Would definitely recommend it to any and all people who have an interest in escape rooms.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


For first timers we were blown away by the friendliness and attentiveness of the staff, great atmosphere although we didn't try the horror themed ones as I wasn't wearing my brown pants. Will definitely come again.


Christopher Medcalf


⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


I've done two of the horror themed escape rooms. Both rooms are genuinely fantastic with well structured puzzles and great atmosphere.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐


My first time doing an Escape Room and I'll be back again and again! The staff on Saturday night were amazing too! So many laughs for us and the staff (haha), just the right amount of fear, and an overall incredibly fun experience! This was the most fun I have had with my best friend in such a long time, can't wait to go again! Hats off to the team in Northridge! Thank you!

  • 🔐 How hard is the GRIMM Escape Room?

In GRIMM, the clues are generally easy to find, but solving them can be a challenging, while still offering plenty of fun and excitement. Recommended for players who've experienced an escape room before, but still great for beginner-level escapers up for a bit more of a challenge. Learn more about our difficulty levels here.

  • 🎫 How do I book the GRIMM Escape Room?

    The simplest way is to check availability and book online here. Our website shows live availability and all bookings are confirmed immediately. It's the quickest and best way to secure your desired time slot.

  • ✋ Will our group be playing with strangers?

    At Escape This, all bookings are exclusive to your group. This has always been (and will remain to be) our policy before, during and after Covid.


    If you want to be locked in a room with a group of people you have never met before (some people do!) then we recommend you try another escape room experience provider.

  • 💳 Can I book more than one room to start at the same time?

    Absolutely, if you want to book multiple escape rooms, including Accused, to start at the same time. Please use our multi room booker to check availability and place a booking. 

  • 🎭 Can we come dressed up?

    You certainly can! If you have ever considered dressing up for your escape room experience we encourage you to do so. Come as a witch, come as Hansel & Gretel, come as a gingerbread man... the fairytale costume possibilities are endless!

  • ⏳ How long will the GRIMM Escape Room experience last?

    You'll have one hour in GRIMM before the witch returns and forces you into her oven! We recommend you arrive 15 minutes before your scheduled start time and if you allow for 15 minutes afterwards, to catch your breath and debrief, your whole experience will last up to 90 minutes. You may be one of the lucky ones to escape earlier, in which case your time with us may be shorter.

  • ❓ How many people can play GRIMM at the same time?

    The maximum group size that our GRIMM escape room can accomodate is 8 people.


    Our group limits are set to optimise gameplay and ensure a truly immersive experience for all our guests. Fortunately for you, it is company policy to never compromise on your gameplay experience so these limits are NOT flexible! 


    If your group is larger than 8 players we suggest that you book multiple rooms to start at the same time and split your group across the rooms. Thus ensuring the very best experience for everyone in your group.

  • 👍 Is GRIMM a good choice for my first escape room?

    First time escapers will find GRIMM quite challenging but it remains a very popular choice for first timers. So yes, it's a great choice and our gamesmasters will be on hand to offer any extra clues if you need them.

  • 🦽 Is GRIMM a wheelchair accessible room?

    Yes! GRIMM is a wheelchair accessible escape room, and a popular one at that with our wheelchair and limited mobility patrons. Please note a limited number of puzzles may be more challenging or difficult to access from a wheelchair, but as escape rooms are a team game requiring a mix of skills and abilities from team members, this should not affect your enjoyment of our rooms. Please note, GRIMM is equipped to accommodate no more than one wheelchair per session.
