TransWorld’s Halloween & Attractions Show in St. Louis includes Escape Room City, an area dedicated exclusively to the room escape and adventure game industries.
We will be speaking as part of the Escape Room City seminar series.
Show Details
- March 21-24, 2019
- St. Louis, MO
- America’s Center (701 Convention Plaza)
Seminar Details
We have two sessions at this show, both of them are free (included with your ticket).
Panel:
The Elephant in the Room: Escape Room Ethics – the Good, the Bad, the Ugly and How We Can Come Together to Change It!
I will be moderating this panel of escape room industry veterans:
- Shawn Fischtein, Escape Games Canada
- Nicole Ginsburg, Museum of Intrigue
- Brian Lacertosa, The Puzzle Effect
- Samantha Hatfield, 13th Gate Escape
- David Spira, Room Escape Artist
This is a free early-bird seminar.
- Thursday, March 21
- 9am – 10am

We believe that escape room owners and operators can come together to address topics such as safety, intellectual property, and competition. Through collaboration, we’ll grow a more sustainable escape room industry for the future.
Talk:
Setting Expectations for Escape Room Design in 2019
We will provide context and recommendations for anyone opening or operating an escape room business in 2019.
We will cover how haunted attractions owners have raised the bar and pitfalls they need to look out for. We will also address strengths and weaknesses of industry players from other backgrounds, painting a picture of where this industry has evolved from and where it might go.
This is a free early-bird seminar.
- Friday, March 22
- 9am – 10am
- Room 267
We believe there are many opportunities for creating escape rooms in 2019. Join us to think about out how you fit into the bigger picture.
