"The Mystery Theatre has outdone itself this time. Without a doubt, the funniest show yet!" - the authors
Oglebay... that hallowed name and local powerhouse. And with good reason. The Oglebay family was a major benefactor to the area. The sprawling 1500-acre Oglebay resort was a gift to the people of Wheeling from the Oglebay family... Oglebay Institue, America's oldest such foundation for the arts, was started through Oglebay endowments. The Oglebays gave a lot to Wheeling. All of the Oglebays have however, sadly, passed on... or so it was thought... until... one of them returns - and someone gets murdered!
