OCTOBER 1 & 2: Kip's Grand Escape
The Grand has experienced strange events for thirteen days only to discover that the root of it all trails back to a spirit named “Kip” that resides in a doll kept in the theatre. The doll is typically secured behind a display case but has managed to escape. Your goal of this escape room-like scavenger hunt is to solve a series of clues, find Kip and put her back in her case in 30 minutes or less to save The Grand Oshkosh from more maniacal mayhem.
Story based on the previous investigations put on by Ed & Lorraine Warren at The Grand Oshkosh in the 70s and early 2000s. The Warrens reported feeling a doll’s presence in the basement of the theatre.
Work in groups of 2-10 to save The Grand. You will have 30 minutes for this mission.
