What Is a Murder Mystery Party?
A murder mystery party is a super fun event where you invite a group of friends together to solve a fictional murder.

By the end of the night everyone gets a chance to test their detective skills and see if they can solve the mystery.

★★★★★ East Pier and Sons Bought this game for my wife's 30th surprise birthday party. She had no idea what was happening but loved every second of the game. It was perfect timing since her birthday is just before Halloween. We did it up big. Everyone dressed their parts. There was one group who knew the killer in the second round but wasn't certain. Everyone kept walking around stealing info from other teams. You may not want to allow phones, though it was fun watching everyone try to be slick with hiding the fact that they were taking pictures. We can't wait to try it again with our customers.
