Escape room, murder mystery events coming to the Brooklyn Library

   The Brooklyn Public Library is hosting two different Halloween-themed events, both made possible by Friends of the Library. These events, which get underway on Oct. 5, will be ongoing for the entire month of October, are free, and are available by registering for a time you can come with family and friends. This will also allow the library staff to maintain proper social distancing guidelines by limiting those involved for each session. 
   The first event is an escape room where your group has to solve clues in order to escape a mad scientist's clutches! Entire time involved is 75 minutes. 
   The second is a murder mystery, where you and your party must discover the murderer that walks among you. Costumes are encouraged! The entire time involved is 60-120 minutes.
   Both events are for ages 13 and up. Don't worry, library staff is planning stuff for younger visitors.
   We hope these events will be a fun way to engage our community and celebrate the fall season.
   For more information or to register for one of the family-fun events, please call the library at 641-522-9272 or email [email protected].
