Hosting Overview

"I specialize in murders of quiet, domestic interest." ― Agatha Christie

How it Works



Introductory Trailer (1:51)

Here is an overview of hosting a mystery party:

  • Invite guests using our digital editable PDF invitations.
  • Once guests RSVP, assign them characters that have given personalities, backgrounds,
  • motives and include dress suggestions.
  • Send guests our digital editable PDF character assignments.
  • Play audio mp3 introductions to the game or present it yourself.
  • Play music playlist (that we provide) for your particular game.
  • At your party, guests will mingle, interact, make accusations and perform tasks while figuring out the backstory and the murderer.
  • Dinner is served. Toward the end of dinner, additional secrets and interactions are given. Also, the detective in charge will share pertinent information about the on-going investigation.
  • As sleuthing draws to a close, guests will vote digitally using our automated voting tool on awards for best actor/actress, best costume and the murderer. Voting is done via your guests' cellphones and results are calculated automatically for the host. The host will be given a link to the results.This is a huge time saver and sets our games apart from most other mysteries that are done manually.
  • Before the solution is revealed guests can share their secrets, although the murderer cannot reveal who he/she is at this point.
  • The solution is revealed via our audio mp3 solution or optionally can be read by the detective.
  • Awards are presented.
