Murder Mystery Party - Murder! At the Speakeasy
Event Details
07:00PM - 08:30PM
Map address
Join us for a night of murder and intrigue (virtually, of course!) Put your sluething skills to the test and help us solve a murder at The Bearded Rat Social Club, the best speakeasy in town.
The premiere of “Forbidden Love” brought together stars and mobsters alike, and everybody who’s anybody in the great city of New Holly attended that premiere – including you and the local reporter, Speedy Wright. After the big night of pomp and glamour, everyone went to The Bearded Rat Social Club to celebrate, but the celebration didn’t last long. The lights cut off and a gunshot rang, and when the lights came back on, well, that’s when you saw him: Speedy Wright, shot dead. The questions is, are you the murderer?
We will assign you a character 1 week prior to the event. Characters range from a self-made millionaire, the town mayor, a bartender, a rich widow, a pilot, and an up-and-coming actress.
The murder mystery will be divided into 4 rounds. During rounds 1, 2, and 3, each player will reveal the clues given to them in their handbook. During round 4, each player will guess who they think killed Speedy Wright. Once every player has guessed, the host will ask the murderer to confess.
We hope to see you there!

If you really feel like getting in the spirit, join us a little before 7pm to make a 1920s-inspired cocktail, which we've heard can help with one's sleuthing skills.
