Moonlight Manor

Halloween Addition and Subtraction Escape Room

You and your classmates are junior home inspectors hired to check Moonlight Manor before the town Halloween party. Just after sunset, the front door clicks shut behind you, and Midnight the black cat blinks from a velvet armchair. Crack the five locks by solving 25 two-step addition and subtraction word problems, and you will open the front door in time for the party.
