Escape the Night - First Season

I started having dreams.

- (FRENZIED BREATHING) - (RAIN POURING)

About a house.

A house that was built without hands.

- (FRENZIED BREATHING) - (RAIN POURING)

And then one day I received a letter

and it became mine.

Life had been breathed into a fantasy.

- (THUNDER RUMBLING) - (RAIN POURING)

But now it won't let me sleep

until I invite others.

To my esteemed friends.

I have acquired an illustrious estate

through the death of a distant relative

who I've never met.

I thought it only fitting that I invite you all

to attend a dinner party on its grounds.

Telegram for Mr. Delaghetto.

Am I getting sued?

It will certainly be a night to remember.

However the estate is quite peculiar.

It only exists in the year 1920.

In the year 1920?

The heck?

To enter its grounds, you must be dressed

entirely with clothing of that era.

If you are carrying anything from the modern world,

the house will simply never appear for you.

And not only your clothing, but your attitude

must reflect the time.

I have included your unique characteristics

on the back of this invitation.

My driver will pick you up and take you on a road

that can only be driven by his mysterious

time traveling automobile.

Then almost like magic, the place will appear.

My name is Shane and they call me the renegade.

I'm Eva, my character is the journalist.

I'm Oli White and I am the big game hunter.

My name's Justine and I'm the gambler.

My name is Andrea

and I am kinda like a fixer.

My name is Matt, I am called the professor.

I'm Sierra and I am an heiress.

My name is Lele Pons and I am a hustler.

My name is Timothy Delaghetto,

I'm a mobster.

This is such a nice place.

It's the 1920s, we were just in 2016,

then we got into this car and then here we are.

So like I think I know what's going on,

but I'm really not sure.

- (GROUP CHATTERING) - Do you have any mints? Any gum? Mints?

I don't get to go out too much and then when I'm coming

to a party like this and it's 1920s themed,

I'm really looking forward to it.

This party is insane.

I mean, I have been to a few YouTube parties,

that's a lie, I've been to none.

This is the first one I've been invited to.

What do you guys think?

Welcome to my new house.

This is yours?

This isn't your house.

I actually have inherited this house

from a distant cousin twice removed.

My cousins get me nothin'.

You all look amazing tonight in your 1920s attire.

- Thank you. - (GROUP CHATTERING)

I wanna introduce you all to my wonderful staff

that actually came with the house.

Arthur, who is head of staff.

Sarah, the maid and then there's Marvin,

who's the groundskeeper.

Dinner is almost ready, but until then,

let's get to know each other a little bit more

and have some drinks.

I love being in the 1920s, mainly because

I don't have to text people back.

I don't have to worry about keeping up

with my Snapchat, I don't have to make any videos,

this is great, this is vacation.

No technology works here which is crazy.

Oh, I would love one, thank you.

I thought it would be fun to give each of my friends

a persona since we have to dress up for the 1920s,

why not make it even more fun by giving them

a character to play up.

Hit me, hit me, hit me, hit me.

Oh, girl, blackjack!

I'm gonna deal some cards and we are gonna gamble tonight.

I'm a mobster in the 1920s, you know,

that's not too far from what I already

kinda represent.

Coming from nothing, building my own empire,

killing people, figuratively.

I've just come back from Africa.

I've actually been hunting for the past couple

of weeks or so.

I'm a vegetarian but I'll let it slide

because his outfit's cute.

I love the dark mistress look,

- it's gorgeous. Thank you.

Yeah, you know, I'm really into fashion.

I really like to make things, I like to fix things.

If you have something broken, I can fix it.

Really?

Yeah.

Joey, do you own this house?

I need to be part of this house.

I mean, it's just big.

I don't have the deed yet.

So you're not rich.

You basically own it.

No, no, no, it's going to happen.

Like tonight it's supposed to happen actually.

Oh, really?

Yeah, and once I sign it, then it's officially mine,

but like I've been living here so.

It's mine.

Are we allowed to look around?

Being the journalist, I always just wanna see

what's happening and I don't think of the consequences.

I'm down if you're down.

Huh, hm.

Oh, hm, huh, hm.

What you gonna do, Glozell.

I'm the jazz singer here, sweetheart.

Sorry.

I know you sing pretty but I don't do duets.

Well I was hoping that I was the only one

that was invited by Joey,

but it's fine, it's fine, I'll do whatever.

As long as I get my man and my mansion.

So would you wanna live here your whole life then?

Why not?

Alone, do you have a girlfriend?

Um, no.

I guess she didn't watch my video.

How's darts going?

Ready, one, two, three.

Could we like look around?

Look around?

No, I think we should just stay down here.

Dinner's almost ready, so I think we should just

hang out here, yep.

I don't know, I can tell that he's lying

just by looking in his eyes.

There's something that he doesn't want me to see.

Dinner is served,

so head on into the dining room.

Nametag.

Yes.

Oh, the salad looks delicious.

This is so creepy.

I know.

Just happened, it just fell into my lap.

Thanks for inviting us, by the way.

No, of course.

- (VOICE-OVER) This is so cool. - Yeah.

Where's Eva and Shane?

Ooh.

You scared yet?

Wait.

Wait, what?

Wait, what?

Maybe...

The dinner's ready.

Where's the bathroom?

You should probably head downstairs.

Here, turn around.

Oh, my.

We have a lot of girls that want money.

I'm trying to, you know, stay back from that.

I just got the house, okay, I don't get money.

You can put it on the market.

That Sarah chick is a little scary though, that maid.

Does she smile?

She's like.

Sarah, she needs to work on her make up.

When I become Mrs. Joey and I get in the house,

she's the first one that's got to go.

We should play some bets to see where we think

these two are, first of all.

Yeah, it's been a long time,

they can't be in the toilet.

You can't drop deuces that long.

Part of me feels a little like disrespected like,

or don't go ahead and go exploring.

Especially when I tell you not to.

So is this impressive to you?

My estate?

Oh, it's cute.
