Host your own murder party

murder mysteryThere's nothing like murder to liven up a party. You could say it really gives guests something to talk about: especially when combined with a gourmet dinner and clues to who did it.

Host A Murders are pure audience participation and a whole lot of fun! Get a group of between 20 and 75 people together for a night of dinner, murder and mayhem, suspense, intrigue and laughs.

You and your guests get the chance to act as a famous character for the evening. Imagine meeting Mae West, Rudolph Valentino, Charlie Chaplin, Isadora Duncan, Jimi Hendrix, Elvis Presley, Janis Joplin or Marilyn Monroe all in the same room.

We'll provide complete instructions on what to do, including information and costume suggestions for each character, clues, evidence and invitations. There are three acts to the show and each character has a script from which to reveal the clues. It's very easy, enormous fun and no prior learning is required.

  • Range of three-act murder scenarios for between 20 and 100 people including Murder of the Great Chef, Poetic Justice, Who Killed Santa, Celebrity Celebrations, Fame, money and Murder, Search for the Truth, and Mystery in the Library

  • Background details and scripts for each character
