Heist on the Christmas Express DIY Christmas Escape Room Printable

Heist on the Christmas Express is a printable escape room adventure that blends festive mystery, classic detective work, and holiday magic into one unforgettable journey. What begins as a quiet ride through snowy mountain passes quickly spirals into chaos when the Aurora Crystal—a priceless artifact needed for Santa’s Gala—is stolen right under everyone’s nose.
Now, trapped aboard a speeding train full of secrets, you must uncover the thief hiding among the passengers before the Christmas Express reaches its final stop. With only scattered clues, locked compartments, and your own detective instincts, you’ll navigate elegant carriages, examine suspicious notes, and unravel puzzles hidden in the décor of the train itself.
Each puzzle reveals a new piece of the story — from decoding messages left behind by clever suspects to piecing together the timeline of the heist. Solve them all, retrieve the Aurora Crystal, and save Christmas before the whistle blows and the doors open at Santa’s Gala.
No internet, apps, or props required — just print, prep, and let the mystery unfold on paper as the Christmas Express races through the winter night.
