History of Treasure Trap
Treasure Trap was one of the first LARP games in the UK, it began at Peckforton Castle, Cheshire, in 1981.
The success of the game led to the creation of various spin-off societies, including Durham Treasure Trap (DUTT) in 1983 and the (now extinct) Birmingham Treasure Trap.
In 2002 Cambridge Treasure Trap was set up by two graduate students - Jennifer Curtis and Toni Badnall - who had enjoyed LARPing at DUTT during their undergraduate study at Durham and wanted to continue playing when they reached Cambridge.
