South Kentish Town Tube station, closed since 1924, now operates as an immersive escape room despite Transport for London’s 2011 rejection to reopen it.
South Kentish Town Tube station, opened in 1907 and closed in 1924 due to low ridership and a power strike, was repurposed in 2016 as Mission: Breakout, an immersive escape room featuring themed experiences based on its wartime use, a lost passenger legend, and a 2099 sci-fi scenario.
Despite a 2011 proposal to reopen it, Transport for London declined, citing high costs and poor location.
The station remains closed to regular service but attracts visitors as a unique historical attraction.
