With the nights drawing in and halloween just around the corner, what better time to take on Edinburgh's spookiest escape room 'The Anatomist' at Escape The Past?

Set on the edge of Edinburgh's old surgical district, The Anatomist is an escape game that invites you to descend into a world of grave robbery, mystery and malpractice as you enter the study of a 19th century anatomist.

How has Dr Malcolm been procuring bodies for dissection? What research takes place here late into the night? And what terrible 'crime' did Mr Patterson witness that caused him to flee in fear?

Dr Malcolm's journal will reveal all, if you can find it before he returns...

5 Star rated attraction across Trip Advisor, Google Reviews & Facebook.

The experience last 1 hour. Suitable for groups of 2-7 people. Suitable for adults and children 12+.
