Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:
Mardi Gras, also known as Carnival season, fills New Orleans with Bal Masques, tableaux, Royal Court gatherings, charity events, and dazzling parades. The Krewe of Pantheon is one of the city’s longest-standing Carnival organizations, with more than 200 members. By tradition, Madeline Broussard, the newly crowned Mardi Gras Queen of the Krewe of Pantheon, is hosting the prestigious Royal Court party to launch the season.
The Krewe members will arrive in outrageous Mardi Gras fashion for an evening of appetizers, challenging trivia, energetic dance contests, a delicious meal, and an entertaining movie challenge. Unfortunately, several members of the Royal Court have clashing personalities, troubled histories, hidden motives, and strong opinions about nearly everything. The celebration may be festive, but disagreements are already threatening to turn the party into a Carnival catastrophe.
You are a member of the Krewe of Pantheon, your attendance at the Royal Court party is required, and this is where your story begins.
