About the escape room
The year is 1676 and witch hunts are underway in the city. Several women have been executed after children have testified about how the witches bring them to Blåkulla at night. The witches ride to Blåkulla on cows and goats and once there they lose themselves to "the ugly one". Panic is growing in Katarina's slum and children are left in the evenings in special guardhouses where adults take turns guarding so that the witches don't take them to Blåkulla. Now the children have singled you out and you risk being burned at the stake. If you fail to prove that the children are lying, you will soon meet your fate...
