Something in This House Doesn't Want to Be Found.
Sam the Sandown Clown
A spooky mystery escape room. Explore one of Britain's strangest mysteries.
Based on a true scary story first published in the BUFORA Journal in 1973. The details are strange, the timeline doesn't add up, and the house at the center of it all has a peculiar resident that calls himself “All Colours Sam.” Your team is going to solve what really happened in 1973.
What to Expect
Sam the Sandown Clown plays like a mystery that bites back. The puzzle difficulty sits at medium, approachable enough to keep you moving, layered enough to keep you honest. What sets it apart is the atmosphere: this room uses jump scares deliberately, not as wallpaper, so expect moments that will genuinely get you. The Scooby-Doo DNA is real, there's humor underneath the tension, which makes the scares land harder when they come.
Room Highlights
Jump scares that are earned, not cheap: The tension is real. You are in an unusual setting trying to discover Sam’s purpose when things go bad.
A British mystery with real personality: The source material is strange and the artists at Baker Street Escapes created an ending using the most popular conspiracy theories regarding Sam the Sandown Clown.
Scales from 2 to 7: Intimate enough for a date night, chaotic enough to be hilarious with a group.
Who It's Best For
This is the go-to date night room. The combination of puzzles and jump scares does something to group chemistry that's hard to manufacture otherwise. It's also a strong pick for friend groups who want a scary escape room in Oklahoma City without committing to a full horror experience.
A Note About Sam the Sandown Clown (Formerly “A Ghost Story”)
In escape rooms, the best teams know when something isn't working and make the call to change course. We took our own advice.
A Ghost Story was a good name, but it didn't tell you what you were actually walking into. Sam the Sandown Clowndoes. Same room, same jump scares, same unsettling British mystery. Just a name that finally matches the experience.
*If you’ve played A Ghost Story, this is the same game, with a new name.
