Trapped in a Room With a Zombie is back with brand new clues and puzzles … and the zombie is still hungry! You and up to 11 other adventurers are trapped in a room, and a hungry zombie is there, too, chained to the wall in this unique interactive experience. Every five minutes, a buzzer sounds and the zombie’s chain is released a few more inches. You have one hour to escape the room or risk getting eaten! Hidden in the room is a key that will unlock the door to your freedom. You and your fellow zombie bait must work together to locate the clues and solve riddles. Trapped in a Room With a Zombie: Still Hungry at Chicago’s Fine Arts Building is perfect for a thrilling night out with friends, a really cool date night, or just to have a blast by yourself while meeting new people. Cheating death-by-zombie tends to create fast friendships.  This Goldstar offer allows you to choose dates through December, 2015.
