Fun Spot America’s Orlando park will feature the Backwater Bayou Escape Room.

“As you walk through an alley off of Bourbon Street, before too long you’ll find yourself in the backwater swamp. But be careful, you’re not to disturb the swamp queen if you plan to escape on time. Are you and your friends up for the newest lightning round of escape rooms,” according to the website.
