FAQ
What sort of venue do I need?
Because murder mysteries involve playing games and your guests doing lots of fun and silly things, they need a quiet venue with lots of space.
You can hold a murder mystery at home or in a function venue. Try any venue which:
- Is completely private i.e.: not a restaurant or public spaces.
- Is very quiet i.e. no bands, piped music or DJ's next door.
- Has lots of room to move around. Imagine all your guests standing in a circle.
- You need one central area big enough for all guests at one time.
What murder mystery game themes are available?
Popular themes include 1920s, Hollywood and cruise ships. Many games offer a wide range of settings to suit different occasions.

The games are naturally engaging but there are a number of tricks of the trade.
