I can't handle horror but the Buried Alive one was fine! If you're okay with getting shut in the box (quite spacious, enough room to flip over and I could even tuck myself in and completely turn around), it has no jumpscares and is quite a fun "tame horror" one to try. We had a blast, as getting shut in was a pretty novel experience. We've played around 30 escape rooms and these puzzles were suitably challenging. We had a gamemaster named Viv who was flawless in making us feel comfortable. That's saying a lot when you're getting shackled, blindfolded, and nailed in :D .
