There is no wonder why escape rooms are so popular; they are highly engaging and encourage people to work together and think creatively in order to solve different puzzles... all while trying to beat the clock! This meticulously-crafted resource features all of the materials you need to conduct a full-length Escape Room for The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe. Planning an escape room may seem like quite the daunting task (and it is!), but this product provides everything from the basics and set-up instructions to signs and answer keys so that yours runs smoothly from start to finish. The activity involves movement, energy, creative thinking and most of all, collaboration. It is the perfect activity for Halloween or any day you want to shake it up with your students without sacrificing learning.

  • In the second task, students must identify 7 types of figurative language within the short story. Highlighted boxes in the correct answers will reveal the code.
  • In the third task, students must solve a crossword puzzle with questions about literary elements of the story. Circled boxes on the crossword once unscrambled will reveal the code.
  • In the fourth task, students must fill in the blanks with vocabulary words from The Tell-Tale Heart. When matched correctly, shaded boxes will reveal the code.
  • In the fifth and final task, students must discover the hidden message (a quote from The Tell-Tale Heart) using clues they collected during the first four tasks. When they write them in the correct order on a scroll and bring it to you, they can finally escape the room.
