What happens during a murder mystery event?

A heinous crime has been committed and you’re going to be needed to help solve the clues to be able to apprehend the murderer. Keep your eyes peeled, there will be clues everywhere and listen out for hushed conversations too. It’s just like an Agatha Christie plot, but played out live in front of you, more often than not whilst you tuck into a delicious meal!

Will I be able to play a role in the drama?

For most murder mystery events, you’re invited as a guest to observe and work out what’s going on rather than taking on an acting role. In some cases you may be able to get into character a bit and interact, by questioning the suspects for example. But equally, there’s no pressure to get involved in that way either. 

Will there be any blood?

No humans or animals will be harmed in the making of these murder mystery events, but you may will see some fake stage blood to make the crime even more realistic!

Do they take place at hotels?

Yes, a lot of these murder mystery experiences take place in country of city hotels around the country. Some are just for dinner, some are for overnight stays so you’ll be embarking on a murder mystery weekend. But don’t forget, murder mysteries take place on trains and river boats too.

Are these events comedies?

That depends. The murder mysteries that take place at hotels around the country are meant to be entertaining, but not comedies. On the other hand, some of the train murder mystery voyages are full of puns, quips and one-liners!

Do you only do murder mystery evenings in hotels and on trains and boats?

No! We’ve also got some murder mystery-themed experiences with a twist. How about being a CSI investigator learning how to take fingerprints and crime scene photos? What about a visit to a Sherlock Holmes-themed escape room? Or maybe solve the mystery from your comfort of your armchair, with a collection of crime, murder, mystery and thriller books delivered to your door. They’re all on offer in this murder mystery section, so have a browse!

How do we find clues?

Ah. That would be telling! Listen carefully and be as observant as you can. We’re sure you’ll notice some rather odd behaviour from some of the guests. And if you really get stuck, some clues will be thrown out there to put you back on the scent.

Do you use professional actors for these murder mysteries?

Yes. Characters are interesting and engaging because the actors are skilled professionals. It all helps to make the experience all the more entertaining for all involved too.

Will the culprit be amongst us from the start?

Quite possibly. We can only recommend that you keep an eye out for any strange goings on!

Will the murder happen whilst we are eating?

It could do. Or it could happen as you’re all gathering for dinner. Or maybe just after the main course. Or perhaps it happened out of sight and you all you hear are the blood-curdling screams? It all depends on the plot and where the event takes place.
