I LOVE THIS VIDEO. Great job. The Puffs are simple adorable. Thank you so much. A lot of hard work went into this. Well done.

You're gonna need a bigger location for all the folks who want to be your friends to come to your awesome party! Or you could rent a larger place, but that would make all the sets you make have to be moved in. :P Can't wait for the party recap post!

[@jenniferdarling3560]

You two are amazing! I am in awe of your talent and creativity! You keep me smiling every time I read a blog or watch a video. Thank you! Merry Christmas!

[@ellieboa]

This is so cool!

[@sar0517]

would your husband ever consider going into business to make some of the props? like the magnetic shavings box and the potions magnetic one? Im so un handy and wish I could recreate it. So cool and original. I would definitely pay for props like this.

[@EpbotVideo]

Thank you for the compliment!! As for John, he's always moving on to the next challenge, so we've never made multiples to sell. We did gift this entire setup to a public library a few years ago, tho, which was putting on their own escape room. Hopefully it brought joy to lots more people.

[@Lynzilla0525]

The fact that y'all put this together while suffering the throes of Florida Plague is astounding! Jo would be proud!

[@Faes_gaming]

Florida Plague??

[@nathalieoettli9436]

Hi, how wonderful and perfectly prepared! Thanks for sharing! How did you fabricate the treasure chest where the wand reveals the paper with text?

[@EpbotVideo]

The chest is filled with iron filings, and the wand is magnetic! Hit the link in the description, I have more details over on the blog.

[@alisoncraig2645]

This looks amazing. What kind of lamp is that? Trying to find one myself that I can switch out with a black light

[@EpbotVideo]

We found the little lantern at an antique store ages ago, sorry I don't have any other info on it! But yes, all we did was swap the little bulb for a black light.

[@sar0517]

was the lantern already set up for a regular light bulb or did you convert it from an oil one?@@EpbotVideo

[@onearmfrog]

This is absolutely incredible. I'm trying to recreate the iron shavings riddle.. How did you prevent the shavings from moving on the paper? It stains the paper and I'm trying to find a solution for that 🙏

[@EpbotVideo]

As I recall our paper did get a little dirty, but if you'd like to avoid that try covering the paper with clear packing tape, so the dust slides over it easier.

[@ptypanda5389]

It's been two years but where do you found all of this ?

[@EpbotVideo]

We made almost everything ourselves, or modified thrifted items, so it's all custom. :)

[@fridacorralhernandez8475]

where are you guys located?
