The captured is an interactive live escape game (a game in which people are locked in a room with other participants and have to use elements of the room to solve a series of puzzles, find clues, and escape) located at the base of the Gatlinburg Space Needle.

You Are Invited to Dinner. Can You Survive?

The Craft family has a twisted tradition. Simon Craft was a colonel in the Confederate Army. After the war he was deeded a piece of land between Pigeon Forge and the Cherokee Nation. The Craft family made a fortune from selling timber to the US government. However, there was a brutal winter when the Crafts ran out of food and resorted to cannibalism. They grew fond of the taste of human flesh. Today, the Craft descendants, led by Simon’s psychotic and unhinged great-great-great-grandson, feast on the unwitting tourists that make their way to the Great Smoky Mountains.
