Morty

180 Varick St Suite 816, New York, 10014, United States

Overview

Morty builds a community‑driven discovery and review platform that helps users find and book escape rooms and haunted attractions. The company markets itself as a social copilot for friends looking for unique interactive IRL experiences. Its recommendations are powered by enthusiast communities; Morty’s escape room community is the dominant review and tracking app in that vertical. Morty drives over $500,000 in escape room bookings each month, and users have logged over 400,000 escape rooms with more than 300,000 ratings and reviews. The company recently launched a haunted‑attraction community and maintains a database of roughly 4,000 haunted attractions. Planned future verticals include immersive art/theatre, experiential food and beverage, conventions, arcades/barcades/pinball, murder mystery events, and experiential museums. The product focus is on enabling authentic, interactive real‑world experiences rather than passive consumption.
