“The Bookhouse Institute blends the magic of books, the thrill of escape rooms, and the mystery of buried treasure into a series of enchanting projects.”
What is The Bookhouse Institute?
The Bookhouse Institute creates unique puzzle books that lead to real treasures hidden across the British landscape.
Each creation contains a series of interconnected riddles, maps, puzzles, and mysteries. When solved, they guide participants to physical, handcrafted prizes hidden in real-world locations — often in partnership with local artisans.
Inspired by the creativity of Kit Williams, Cliff Johnson, and the anarchic tricksters of The KLF, The Bookhouse Institute blends storytelling, interactive design, and a love of mystery into one unforgettable experience.
FAQ for Journalists
Q: Are the treasures real?
Yes. Each treasure is handcrafted and unique. If you can discover the location in the books, you can have it.
Q: Who makes the treasures?
We collaborate with British craftspeople to create these keepsakes, occasionally with a connection to the themes of each book.
Q: Can anyone join in?
Yes — each book is standalone. Some hunts are still active, others may be claimed but remain part of the story.
