Not a set. A real bunker.

Shelter is a horror escape house inside a real Cold War bunker in Timișoara — the largest in Western Romania.

The walls are peeling, the concrete is damp, and fog hides the end of every corridor.

You explore 250+ m² and 10+ rooms, solve puzzles and get past obstacles. The live actors are part of the story — and they know the bunker better than you do.

You don't walk into a room dressed up as a bunker. You walk into a real one.

It was a lot of fun. Before we started we received clear instructions, and the rooms are dark and damp, so I recommend dressing appropriately — and a small tip: tie your shoelaces tight 😂💀
