Anna
Gamesmaster & Manager
I love singing, playing guitar, and napping! You can probably find me scrolling through TikTok or with my head stuck in a book :)
Martin
Owner and Builder
Compulsive builder of things. I love punk rock, sport and cooking - especially barbecuing for friends and family. Love being in my garden and chillin' with my hoes😎

Gamesmaster & Fire Safety
Hi I’m Jack, 23 year old from Durham and when I’m not running games I love going to hardcore shows, working with bands and watching football.
Hey, when I’m not at The Escape Key running games, cleaning and handling the social media, you’ll find me table top gaming, caring for my plants, spending time with my family or consuming a bunch of media. Fascinated by people and puzzles!

Hawaii Girl living in sunny South Shields. I love the beach, playing guitar, visiting abandoned places and going on adventures with my dog. Any free time from work or uni and I’m off exploring the world.
Von
Gamesmaster
I'm Siobhan! I'm powered by caffeine, sugar and my passion for fantasy. When I'm not creating magic in our rooms, you'll probably find me cozying up with my pets, making an arty mess, or on a pixelated adventure!

Kristian
Gamesmaster & Manager
Gamesmaster & cleaner
I’m one of the managers here at The Escape Key! When I’m not working, you can find me playing guitar/ listening to heavy music or playing online/ table top games with friends!
Hey, I'm Kristian. When I'm not struggling to take a decent selfie, you'll usually find me lost in creative pursuits. I have a passion for filmmaking. Whether I'm behind the lens, behind my typewriter or lost in imaginative thoughts, I love exploring different ways to express my creativity.

Rachel
Design Engineer
Gamesmaster & HR
Been here since day 1. I keep the games working and the puzzles coming. Love bike rides, dogs, karaoke and making a mess while building things.
I make sure everyone gets paid on time and when I'm not at work I love crafting and walking my dog.
