What is A Murder Mystery Dinner?

A Murder Mystery Dinner is a party event where attendees work together to solve a fake murder. Many attendees choose to dress to the theme of the event. The mystery takes place throughout the course of the party. Our events are different than any other — the entire event is one big mystery with a twist in each story. A murder mystery event is fun and entertaining because the guests play the characters. There is never a dull moment at our events.

Games for the whole family

Come join in the fun at our public events — 3 full hours of fun, food and laughter as you and your team work to solve a murder. This fun-filled event is not dinner theater. It's a challenging social game where you interact with other guests, learn their character and motive, and figure out who could have killed our victim. Each game runs 4 rounds: characters are established, motives develop, someone dies, and finally you make your accusations and tally up your team's points.

Why guests love it

Not dinner theater — you're in the story

At most murder mystery events you sit back and watch actors perform. Not here. Our interactive murder mystery dinners put you in the middle of the action — you'll play a character, question suspects, chase down clues, and match wits with everyone in the room. No experience or acting skills required: your host guides the whole night, and half the fun is seeing where the story goes. It's laugh-out-loud fun for date night, a big group, or the whole family.
