Murder Mysteries are More Fun for a Weekend Getaway!

Friday Night

On Friday evening after you check in, you will meet some of the characters in the murder mystery. The bar is open and the hor d'ouvers are complimentary. We want to see you there at 7:30 promptly. If you are later than 8 p.m., you may miss out on some vital information - and at least a couple of drinks.

Now, don’t worry about the whole murder thing. We seldom lose a guest. And we won’t even try to fool you as to who’s an actor and who’s not. During the informal mingle, you'll meet most of the characters one-on-one. And, oh yes, you may be asked to play a part in the performance.

Around 8 o'clock the show begins. Featuring broad comedy and musical parody, a mystery unfolds. You should be attentive to the characters’ motivations, actions and words, even the hand props. you’ll know who was murdered by the end of the evening, and you’ll already have a theory.

Saturday

Saturday you will go out and look for clues. You will have instructions in your welcome pack telling you where to find these clues. There may be as many as six different clues.

Saturday Night
You will join us for dinner at about 6:30 p.m. Prior to dining, we’ll check in with you and you can discuss your theories. Then you’ll have dinner. After you've stuffed yourself, you'll digest the rest of the mystery, with more comedy, musical parody and maybe even plot development.

Before you decide who the murderer is, you will have one more opportunity to question the suspects. Following the questioning, you will write down your guess as to who the culprit is, what the motive was, and the clue that lead you to believe what you decided.

Sunday Morning (or, at some venues, Saturday Night
)

After you tell us who you think did it, we’ll tell you who really did. At the end of the show, we’ll award prizes for the best detectives and for the funniest answers.
