Murder Mystery Synopsis:
The Dawson family moved into their new home at 614 Scarlet Court and are hosting a block party. Isabella Dawson is an experienced party host, and it only took her two months in the small town of Shady Oaks to earn the title of town gossip. Nonetheless, the invitees are ready to relax and unwind. Rumors of blackmail, backstabbing, and revenge have circulated about town since Isabella mailed the invitations, and tension is building in the air. Maybe Isabella should have done more research before she handpicked a group of foes? Isabella promises to do her best to distract the party attendees with a fun night of great conversation, fantastic food, and exciting party games. Let’s hope everyone stays on their best behavior. You received your invitation and would die before you missed this party. You love drama. This is where your story begins.
