Shattered at the Beaumont on Halloween evening could have been a great event but was ruined by being poorly run. Highlights were some very well done visuals and decorations, adding the riddle to escape was a nice interactive touch to replace the live actors from previous years. Low points were: - The event was running behind and it felt like they were just rushing people in at the end of the night which resulted in minimal social distancing. Staff were accepting sales at the door while there were still people with booked times waiting in line. - We attended near the tail end of the night and the bar was closed with no notice and a number of staff were just sitting around talking and blocking areas which would have been good for pictures. They obviously saw us waiting to take a picture but chose to ignore us. - During the walkthrough twice we were asked to wait 15 minutes before being allowed to continue, once in a stairway/hallway with no room for social distancing. - One guest was fed up with waiting and tried to “escape” she was confronted by the “mad scientist” which resulted in shouting and pushing, she eventually found and walked out of an alarmed door. Witnessing the confrontation ruined the evening. Our entire group of 5 were disappointed in the event and would probably not return. If you plan on going next year I suggest on going slower weekday evening.
Firstly I gotta say it's not quite like I expected it to be. Not as advertised but that wasn't necessarily a bad thing. The staff was great and welcoming. It's not just a bunch of different rooms themed for Halloween you just walkthrough. There's a puzzle along the way along with some stranger things. Mid walkthrough there's a bar, drinks prices in par with nightclubs. It's outside but covered. It was raining when we went and we all stayed dry (group of four). I would say it's definitely family friendly and they took care COVID measures.
Shattered at The Beaumont: A Wicked Walkthrough Experience\ Oct 2020, is not what it is advertised to be. It's nothing like the marketing pictures posted online.. I was feeling bad for the staff who had to be in character esp. Mad Doctor and the Evil Scientist. 'Beaumont Studio' should really check before letting shows like this perform in there venue. Hype is not worth it. I'm sorry but the show is a very juvenile attempt at horror and a complete money grab 23 for 1 ticket. Save your self the trouble of the \Clues\.... CREATIVITY is the answer.. What a letdown.
Love this venue and looking forward to many more great events in the future
