Black Market Escape Rooms - Murder Co Upland

Best Escape room EVER. Enjoyed the immersive experience. I highly recommend this room if youre a horror/gore fan but also suggest you wear clothes/shoes you dont mind getting dirty as this isnt your typical room.

Scary and fun. Covid safe. Actors are great and the storyline is interesting. Incredible special features. Puzzles make you think. A must try if you enjoy escape rooms. Update: They added a new storyline. The actors are incredible. Not for the faint of heart.

cant spoil anything- but man. what a great experience. from getting to the venue to leaving it is a wild ride- some of the best atmosphere building, unsettling puzzles, and hardworking staff and actors. one of the best escape rooms in the california.

Experience was so unique and intense. If you like immersive and scary, then dont miss out on this amazing experience. A little bummed we didnt get out but that didnt diminish our excitement on how amazing this experience is. We also very much appreciated the extra sweet attention given to the birthday boy from Maneater. Thank you to the amazing staff for making this a night we wont forget.

Came here with my girl as a surprise (party of 2) and it was a blast and an amazing experience! This escape room is hands down the best interactive and immersive I done and I have done many escape rooms before from Hi-Tech to basic ones. Even though we couldnt complete it (since she got scared all the time and couldnt focus) lol. Think of this like Universal Studios Horror Nights meets Escape room. There are live actors and the actors were fun and kept their characters..I was very impressed! We did this during covid times and the staff was all good by being safe keeping in masks and sanitized. I would highly recommend checking them out and will come back with a bigger group to beat it! Dont forget to try Oblivion ;)

So the atmosphere is immaculate, as is sensation in the room; its an experience for sure. The only cons I can think of is in terms of an escape room its a bit lacking. Without spoiling too much, a 2nd light source would definitely assist. Overall its nice and the puzzles are well structured even though some of them are definitely time killers. Edit: so this would be my final time playing this experience, Im glad some of the puzzles have changed to be more accessible and the actors have been awesome in terms of new material. All in all 4/5 would experience wouldnt be able to finish haha

BMER does it right!! This is an amazing establishment with a committed staff that is absolutely unmatched. I reached out to the owner a month in advance to help plan an immersive event for my boyfriends birthday Mr. G and his staff were the most gracious of hosts. These guys are absolute pros. We participated in Murder Co. Pure Evil . It was phenomenal. Beyond words. Beyond imagination. *chefs kiss* Go to BMER and immerse yourself in the twisted reality that theyve created for you. Our group cant wait to go back!!

Group of 4. We had so much fun. Went mid-day on a Friday and it was exciting and horror filled fun. Live actors were super cool and high energy. We beat it with only 7 seconds left. Not too expensive for a really cool experience. Definitely worth the money.

Ive done several escape rooms, but murderco is more than your typical escape room ;) This one is definitely exciting and gets the adrenaline going. You are fully immersed in the horror, environment and story. Love the people working here!! Definitely going to bring people in and try the hardcore version!!!!

Not your average escape room... And thats exactly what we were hoping for! Think extreme haunted house meets (rated R) escape room. We cheered, we laughed, we screamed, we crawled, we ran, we got bloody and.... We got murdered. In other words, we failed! (But we came close) This place was intense and a lot of fun at the same time! Definitely a MUST!

Very, very mediocre experience. Late start time, audio issues from the first scene, long check in and waiver process with only one tablet for 7 people. You have to wait for the previous group to leave before entering the waiting area, where you do no waiting. The beginning of the experience had a person nearby within yelling distance, offering a very small amount of assistance. After that, no assistance is offered under any circumstances. So, if like our group, one clue is covered up by a previous...
Read full review clue, they will watch you do nothing for 20+ minutes on their cameras, and then end the experience. The team refused to listen to any feedback our group offered, in fact sarcastically dismissed it and refused to explain anything that was missed aside from one clue. For a big fan of the designers work at Knotts, the entire experience was very disappointing and certainly not worth $45 per person. On a positive note, the actor portraying our chosen murderer was very entertaining, and reacted well to the audio issues experienced in the opening scene. The actor who signed us in and let us out, however, was simply rude. Their refusal to move the experience along made this a mediocre haunt as well as a mediocre escape room. Certainly not worth the hour drive and $45/ person. Wanted to love it, but no such luck. Also the ending was very poorly executed. Sorry, no spoilers, just expect to spend 5+ minutes in a tiny room while they figure out how to reset...

This is the best immersive horror escape experience you can get. Highly recommend to any gore or adrenaline junky. I love Halloween and Murder Co gets me my haunt kick year round. The experience starts in the parking lot and doesn t end until you re off the premises. The actors and staff love what they do and are dedicated to scaring the absolute life out of you. All of my friends I ve gone with can t stop taking about it either. The puzzles are great if you re not afraid to get your hands dirty. 10/10 Enter at your own risk.

Absolutely loved murder co! Such a fun and scary experience! They kill it with the whole experience definitely will be back to try to escape alive next time! Also yes you see kids in this picture but I wouldn t say it s recommended although I d take my son again enter at your own risk

Weve been to 4 or 5 different escape rooms and hands down this is the best one. They really get into character from the sec you step into the parking lot . I will be back for sure

Incredible! Unlike any other live action immersive experience weve been to, and weve done many. The cast never broke character and the hairraising experience began the moment we stepped onto the premises (wont give away any spoilers). So realistic, there were moments some members of our group started questioning whether we had gotten ourselves into a genuinely dangerous situation. While we werent able to rescue the victim in time, we made it out alive so chalked it up as a win! Such a great time, and two days later, still cant stop talking about it! Thank you to the Murder Co crew for an amazing, unforgettable experience!

Murder Co does a phenomenal job keeping you immersed. Their theme is solid and could absolutely have the potential to be the best horror theater. However, the puzzles fell flat on the escape side. They re not built for you to advance on your own and have nothing to do with the theme. You re being hand held by one of the live actors every single step of the way which drains a lot of time. If you re a beginner and you want to be hand held, this is the place for you. If you want to be immersed in murder and don t care much about puzzles, this could be the place for you. We still enjoyed it, just some critiques. Edit to Owner: Not so much scared. We just couldn t move with the actors coming in every 30 seconds. Thanks for the experience!

Absolutely amazing experience! My group had a blast even though we were not able to finish all the puzzles. The staff is so nice and they honestly just want you to have fun. Obviously it is scary, but more so fun. I highly recommend this place if you love Halloween/spooky/scary/murderous stuff. 10/10 LOVED IT!!!!

Great time, I would 100% recommend if you like getting scared. Awesome time with great hosts and actors!

This was my first ever Escape Room Ive ever been to and really loved the experience I had. The rooms where all exciting and hands on. The actors where awesome, they really made the experience great. We almost didnt make it out. When you go you have to go with a few friends to see there reaction. Im also going to take my coworkers next week. If your thinking about going to to an escape room this is definitely the place to go. Thank you for an awesome experience...

I m absolutely OBSESSED with this place! Last time I went with a friend who is super not into horror experiences and even she is dying to go back! This was my second time back because I still can t get enough! The actors really make it an awesome experience and there is an actor who is there through out to help guide you to success. Definitely intense and such an awesome experience to get some Halloween vibes ALL YEAR ROUND! I will definitely be back. Maybe this time I ll escape lol

Absolutely amazing!!! Did the Pure Evil version and it was so intense. The actors are amazing, and the owner was very cool. The puzzles can be challenging if you do not have many people, and especially when you are scared the whole time. I am a regular at scary events and this was by far the scariest, at least the version we did!

It was an awesome experience staff was great definitely something I would do again

I have been to at least 6 different escape rooms and this one is By far the best escape room I ve been to. You will not leave this place disappointed at all. And your going to want to keep coming back. I ve been there two times so far and I already want to book another one. The owner and actors of this place deserves a movie opportunity. This place is crazy fun and entertaining. Super scary so make sure you guys bring extra clothes to changes your underwear.

Amazing experience! This was definitely one for the books! My friends and I had such a blast in this escape room. On our way there we were getting nervous and some were freaking out about it due to some reviews they were reading. Once we got there, it started! The actors are in character since the moment you arrive!! Puzzles definitely make you think, some of these you dont even expect my friends and I are definitely going back for a second time, and who knows maybe well go again for a 3rd, 4th, 5th it was that good and that fun! Thanks to the actors and the owner for being such an amazing team and giving us this awesome/crazy/scary experience! PS. You will definitely need extra clothes after this

Black market offers an experience that not many escape rooms that are horror themed can relate to, everything at this place is well executed. They re so good at what they do in fact that they had my cousin crying from fear. Best escape room I ve ever been to hands down.

So AMAZING! I ve done one escape room and it was NOTHING like this one! It was such a great time! The Staff was Friendly and the Experience is one that me and my family will NEVER forget!!! I haven t stopped talking to my friend about this place! It s definitely a must go!!! Can t wait to be back!

So our group just finished. Well we didn t finish but we were close before our time ran out. Anyways, I can definitely say it was worth it. From start as soon as you enter and to finish. Everything from the directions, the set, and the actors. Speaking of which, the actors did an amazing job! Scared the Sh*t outta me that s fersure. Can t say to much, but I highly recommend going.

This is escape room was AMAZING. I definitely recommend pure evil, it is so worth it! I ve never been so scared in a haunt attraction before. If you love scary and intense attractions this the best place to go and get a good scare! 10/10

We had so much fun and fright at the MurderCo escape room. From the very beginning it was such a unique and private experience. Our group worked together while on high alert and worrying about what was around each turn. They did a great job with this escape room. It was very well put together, realistic props and scenes. The entire time we were inside, we felt like we were fighting for our lives. GO CHECK IT OUT! Amazing!

This place is Awesome. If you want to feel like your really in a scary/Intense movie they do a phenomenal job. Trying to escape by finding clues to get out WHILE a Serial Killer is hunting you, this is the place. You have to experience this. It gets your adrenaline going for sure. Been twice, both times were great!
