FAQ
Do you need a host for a murder mystery party?
Our murder mystery games are designed to be self-hosted, meaning no professional host is required. The game materials guide the host step by step through the experience. However, you can choose to have a professional host if you prefer, allowing you to relax and enjoy the event while someone else manages the flow. An experienced host can also enhance the experience with their energy and experience.
What is a murder mystery party?
A murder mystery party is a live, interactive event where guests take on character roles and work together to solve a fictional crime. Unlike traditional sit-down games, most murder mystery experiences are more like a theatrical event, with players moving around, interacting, and uncovering clues through conversation. Each participant receives background information and secrets, and the story unfolds as the night progresses. In many games, one guest becomes the victim and another the murderer, while the rest work in teams to investigate and solve the mystery. Even the victim remains involved, helping guide the experience and keep the story engaging.

Do you have a murder mystery game suitable for a hen's night or for all girls?
You have great choices:
- Our "Bogan Bride (or Redneck Bride) and the Billionaire" theme is set at a wedding and is perfect.
- Our "Hollywood Scandal" theme has characters that could either be boys or girls with names like "The Star" and "The Producer".
- Our "Wild West" theme involves a wedding and a baby swap and is great for a Hen’s Night (some guests will be boys but this increases the fun!)
There will be kids at the party, is that OK?
Yes. Kids are often present and they can join in or just be around. If they are not going to be involved just make sure they have something else to do.
