Spooky thriller · Thriller

The Dunny

Not horror, exactly: an outback loo, a celebrity axeman and the sun going down.

In short: The Dunny is a spooky thriller, not a horror room: ER-OS files it under Adventure. It plays at Escape This Perth CBD (13+) and Manly (9+). Its own site is thedunny.com.au.

The Dunny appears in Horrorscape as a spooky thriller, never as a horror room. It has a menacing villain and a deadline at dusk, but the tone is Australian black comedy, and the age limits are lower than any horror room’s.

Official site

The Dunny has its own site with the full story, every rule and its leaderboard. Horrorscape keeps this page short on purpose: the live numbers, how it compares, and where to book.

We just did the Dunny room, it was great fun! Phoebe was an amazing host. Will definitely be back.

★★★★★

Great escape room - “the dunny” was a fun afternoon out. Puzzles were tricky but not impossible, and Allegra was great - very friendly and a great host!

★★★★★

Did The Dunny, was absolutely exciting, very interactive and challenging.
Mia P was a very accommodating host both helpful but not too helpful to take the excitement out. Would highly recommend

Questions, answered

The Dunny: questions

Why does Horrorscape call The Dunny a spooky thriller instead of a horror room?

Because Escape This files The Dunny under Adventure, not Horror. It has a deranged villain, a deadline at sundown and a creepy outback set, so horror fans ask about it, but it plays for laughs as much as screams. Horrorscape keeps it on the thriller shelf and never counts it among the horror rooms.
