TalkTalk and Heart have teamed up to bring a spooky 'Fright and Delight' escape room to White Rose Shopping Centre from 10am until 6pm on Wednesday 27th October.
A trio of spooky pop-up escape rooms have landed in Leeds thanks to TalkTalk and Heart Radio Station.
For one-day-only, visitors will be channeling their inner Sherlock Holmes and using their detective skills to find hidden devices in White Rose Shopping Centre for the chance to win some incredible prizes from TalkTalk.

Dance to the tunes from the UK's largest commercial radio station and try to unravel the clues to escape, all whilst trialling Future Fibre.
Make sure you've had your morning coffee as the first exciting challenge is all about reacting to Batak-style lights in record timing. You'll then move on to the 'Concurrency' room where 75 golden coins are hidden somewhere within the escape room.
Even a metal detector won't get you out in time, but if you're smart enough to quickly find the treasure, you'll still have to face one more spooky surprise before escaping.
Lead your group around to the exit and watch out for rotten pumpkins, broken wheelbarrows and the scary pumpkin man on your journey as only the most reliable route will land your team back in time.
Oh and did we mention one member will be blindfolded and they can only be guided out verbally?

If you have no success escaping in time, there will still be plenty of opportunities to win big at this pop-up event. To celebrate the launch of TalkTalk's Future Fibre, there will be the chance to win a Samsung Galaxy Tab, Nintendo Switch, a Ring Video Doorbell and much more.
Lucky winners and visitors alike can also grab a photo for the 'gram at the pop-up selfie station and share on social using #PoweredByFutureFibre.
Future Fibre is almost 50 times faster and five times more reliable than standard broadband, so clearly TalkTalk's latest launch is worth celebrating.
The pop-up event will demonstrate the capacity and speed of Future Fibre, which can effortlessly handle all household devices’ streaming, gaming and video-calling at once.
No more buffering WiFi? We're in.
For more information on Future Fibre from TalkTalk visit their website or come down to the White Rose Shopping Centre tomorrow between 10am and 6pm to see what the fuss is about at their free-to-attend escape room event.
After making a name for itself over in Leeds city centre, Alfonso's Deli 2.0 has touched down in Horsforth.
Famed for it’s toasted Cuban sandwiches, stacked subs and loaded breakfast bagels - Alfonso's Deli in Leeds' beautiful Grand Arcade serve up some of the best sandwiches in the city.
They've built up such a good reputation in fact, that they have now opened a second deli in the up-and-coming suburb of Horsforth.
Located in a prime location on New Side Road, this deli has a slightly different look to their original space, complete with a beautiful red awning and stuffed to the brim with American memorabilia.

Here you can find fresh Cuban coffee which goes wonderfully with their authentic toasted Cubano sandwiches, perfectly crafted with their house-made bread which are then pressed made-to-order.
New for Horsforth, they're now serving New York deli sandwiches on brand-new house schiacciata bread.
And the bread is as fresh as it gets, made in their own bakery downstairs alongside a selection of New York deli bakes.

Stuffed with toppings such as smoked deli meats, cold cuts, fresh cheese and whatever else you fancy.
Oh and it doesn't stop there, you can also buy a cigar if you fancy it alongside a selection of merch, hot sauces and provisions like tinned fish.
So whether you're stopping by on your way to work for a morning coffee or treating yourself to a stellar sandwich for your lunch, Alfonso's Deli is here to whisk you away to Miami for the afternoon.

They're officially opening their doors to the public this Thursday 15 October, and we just know it's going to go down and absolute storm.
Make sure to pop down and give them a big warm welcome to the neighbourhood.
A 1970s-inspired cocktail bar is coming to Leeds this month from the team behind some of the city’s best bars
Clementine Hall
We've been waiting a while for this one - and it's finally here.
If you know a thing or two about cocktails, or just drinks in general, then you're going to be just as excited as us.
The very talented team behind Roland's and The Domino Club, just to name a few, are setting their sites on a brand-new venture.
Introducing Paper Plane, an intimate new cocktail bar that will be taking over the old Casa site in the city's beautiful Grand Arcade.
Paper Plane will be inspired by the glamour of 1970s air travel and will be a vinyl-only listening bar, serving a world-inspired cocktail menu alongside a carefully curated whisky collection.
The space will be lovely and intimate, with around just 40 covers, designed to transport guests somewhere completely different from the minute they step foot through the door.
And what a location too, joining a whole host of fantastic independents in the arcade such as Alfonso's Deli, Stuzzi and Sonder.
Not only has Roland's been consistently one of the busiest bars on Call Lane since they opened back in 2014, but The Domino Club was recently crowned one of the best cocktail bars in the world. Now that is some accolade worth shouting about.
Paper Plane was announced all the way back in July, and just this week they have announced their official opening date.
Paper Plane will be opening its doors on Thursday 29 October, and we can't wait to welcome them to the city. We'll definitely see you there for a cocktail or two (or three).
Keep an eye for further updates via their Instagram page here.
