The “Un Train d’Enfer” room

About this tour

Step aboard a moving train frozen in mystery. A passenger lies dead; the killer sits among you. You have one hour and one destination to piece together the crime before the train pulls into the next station. This is murder investigation theatre on rails—a full-scale puzzle where every traveller is suspect and evidence lives in conversation, not screens. Based near Perpignan, it scales from newcomer-friendly to genuinely taxing.

Highlights

• Solve a real crime trapped on an actual train carriage
• Fellow passengers are actors; accusations fly across compartments
• Scales from easy to fiendishly complex depending on your choice
• One hour to identify the killer before arrival
• Physical puzzles and hidden clues woven into the setting
• Works for solo players, pairs, or small groups

What to expect

You'll board as a passenger on what seems like an ordinary journey. Within minutes, someone dies. The crew hands you a brief and a suspect list. From there, you're on your own—interviewing other travellers, examining the carriage, testing theories. The actors respond to your questions in character but won't hand you answers. The atmosphere is deliberately claustrophobic: nowhere to run, nowhere to hide, just you and the sealed compartment ticking toward the final station. Depending on your group's deduction skills and the difficulty level chosen, you'll either crack it early or be scrambling in the final minutes.
