About this quest

Gracie hosts, Geoff flies the drone, and you chase clues across haunted venues and shadowy streets. Is it a ghost… or sabotage? Blending mystery, modern tools, and the folklore of New Orleans, this outdoor escape game may expose The Phantom Ballerina—and you hope to be part of the legend.

The mission: Your story in New Orleans

 You’re part of the Grave Gang, a trio filming ghost hunts for your YouTube channel. In New Orleans for the French Quarter Festival, a street musician warns you: a ghostly dancer has been gliding through locked rooms and vanishing into smoke. 

Locals call her the Phantom Ballerina. Gracie plays host, Geoff directs the video by drone, and you are counted on to solve any dilemma the gang encounters. If this ghost is a hoax, it's a good one. If not… you’re about to find out.
