What Can I Expect
Murder, mystery and an overnight stay! Treat yourselves to a Friday or Saturday night away with a difference, as the two of you join in the fun of a comedy whodunnit. Our packages for two are available at hotels around the country.
Expect mirth, merriment and murder on these comedic murder mysteries. And in fact, you can go big on the merriment, as you'll be staying over in the hotel. All packages include a double or twin room for two, breakfast and a seat for dinner at the murderous event.
After a mid-afternoon check-in, make sure you're at the pre-dinner meet and greet on time, as this is where everything will be explained to you. You'll be introduced to some of the guests who, quite frankly, have something slightly odd or eccentric about them. Let's face it, they could all be suspects in a heinous crime, so keep everything peeled for clues.
Once you're sitting down for your evening meal, the action begins. There will be lots of laughs as you encounter the enigmatic characters, all played by professional actors from the realms of TV, film and stage.
The plots take inspiration from some of your favourite detective stories, adding in comedy and plenty of improvisation too. From ‘The Mystery of the Black Pearl' and ‘Who Killed Santa?' to ‘Downfall Abbey' it's going to be a hilarious romp with a mystery to solve.
With the help of clue packs and the pertinent questions you asked the suspects, by the end of your meal you should have a name in mind. At the big reveal everything will become clear. Did you guess right? Or were you completely hoodwinked by the perpetrator?
What's nice about a murder mystery overnight stay is that there's no need to dash off at the end of the evening. Stay, have a nightcap and chat with fellow guests, before strolling back to your room for a good night's sleep (this detective lark is tiring work!), waking for a relaxed breakfast the next morning before checking out.
