Houdini's Secret Room

Unlock the great magician's hidden study, one illusion at a time.

Harry Houdini left one room no one ever escaped from: his own. This print-at-home kit hides his secrets around your living room, with puzzles worthy of the master himself. Some need two pairs of hands working at once. Print it, set it up in half an hour, and see if your crew can do what his rivals never could.

Frequently asked questions

Do I need a color printer?

Yes, several puzzles rely on color to be solved. No color printer at home? A local print shop can print the PDF from a USB drive.

How much setup is involved?

About 25–30 minutes: print, cut a few pieces, and hide them around the room. The guide walks you through each step with photos.

Can I replay it with a different group?

Yes. The materials survive multiple plays — though once someone knows the solutions, the surprise is gone for them.

Fun for 11 year old party

Fun for 11 year old party! Seven pre teens played aged 10-12 at a birthday party and it was a good amount of challenging but I think I could’ve given a little more intro to set up the game for them better. We weren’t super strict about the penalties and hints so both teams finished in about 45 minutes. I was happy to find an indoor activity that held their interest for that long - would highly recommend!

They are amazing My grandkids loved

They are amazing My grandkids loved Houdinis Secret Room and Professor Svens Lab. The printables are awesome and you can get creative and add your own decor like candles and making snow. Just have fun. Escape Room Geeks are amazing and I encourage you to check all of their escape rooms out.
