A fire in an escape room in Koszalin, Poland, killed five teenagers.

A fire in the ToNiePokój escape room in Koszalin, Poland, on 4 January 2019, killed five teenage customers and injured an adult employee. The deceased, all 15-year-old girls, were celebrating one of the girls' birthdays when a fire, fueled by leaking gas cylinders, broke out in the escape room's waiting area. Since the girls were in a room with no door handle and the windows were obstructed by "makeshift walls", they were trapped and died of carbon monoxide poisoning.
