Glasgow Ghost Hunt is a smartphone-led mystery walk linking Glasgow Central, Merchant City, and George Square with puzzles for $6 per person.
“I really liked this game. Didn't fully finish it we stopped at the river due to getting late as we was down Glasgow to see bono(u2). If you play this game the map about looking at the peacock is slightly wrong as it takes you to the back of the house of frasers instead of at the front of the building. So apart from that it was good will do this game again but at night when we come back to glasgow”

“Wow we absolutely loved our 90s themed escape room!! The themeing is unbelievably fun, they've obviously put so much work into it. The puzzles are varied, and fun, and we loved all the music. My one tiny note to the company is to caption the video at the beginning! We struggled to understand every word with the strong accent and it would just be a great idea to make it more accessible to all. Thanks to our game master Amy for a great experience and being a lovely host!!”

The atmosphere was wonderfully immersive – from the moment we stepped inside, we felt transported straight into the haunting story. The puzzles were clever, challenging in all the right ways, and kept us fully engaged right until the end. A special mention has to go to our guide, Lucy, who was just brilliant. She struck the perfect balance of being welcoming, friendly, and enthusiastic while letting us really feel the thrill of solving things ourselves. Her passion for the experience shone through and made the whole adventure even more enjoyable. We’d highly recommend this…”
