Hotel Nocturnus

About the Escape

The 1890 arrival of Jack Nocturnus to San Diego marked the beginning of a long history of unsolved murders. Jack constructed Hotel Nocturnus over a network of hidden caves where his 2 daughters and his grandson resided for many years. It was later discovered that the hotel had also allowed criminals to stay in the subterranean hotel rooms to avoid capture for a hefty price. After Jack’s mysterious disappearance in 1931, his 2 daughters continued to operate the Hotel. Rundown and shrouded in an unsavory past, the hotel continued to decline until it finally closed in 1992 after plumbers found a body hidden in a wall. Hoping to capitalize on the scandal, the sisters contacted a San Diego newspaper to tell their story and alleging they knew the identity of the infamous Zodiac killer. However, the 2 sisters disappeared before the press conference. The hotel is condemned and scheduled for demolition. Before the dark past of Hotel Nocturnus is lost forever, a local TV station wants to do a farewell piece on reported ghost sightings and evidence relating to the identity of Zodiac. Your group will assist the investigation agency hired by the TV station. Good luck and don’t become another victim of Hotel Nocturnus.
