Murder Mystery Game Synopsis:

The historic Anonville Manor closed its doors years ago due to its growing need for restoration and persistent rumors of hauntings by boorish spirits. The previous owners abandoned the rundown property and never looked back.

A secretive entrepreneur later purchased the old bed-and-breakfast and restored the estate to its former grandeur. The new owner has assured the media that the manor is free of paranormal activity and has returned to the pristine condition it enjoyed during the days when it was frequented by the rich and famous.

The proprietor has chosen to remain anonymous, a decision the townsfolk find rather mysterious. An eclectic group of guests has received invitations to the grand reopening dinner party in the estate’s legendary Majestic Ballroom.

You are on the guest list. You are intrigued but apprehensive, as not everyone invited gets along, and sparks could fly.

This is where your story begins.

This challenging mystery is designed for experienced players who are ready to do some serious investigating.

So much fun!

We played this with adults and teens ages 14-17 and had the best time. The teens loved it, it sent us for twists, and the characters were so much fun. 10/10, we can't wait to do our next one

Incredible Experience

This was our first venture into hosting (or playing) a Murder Mystery and I cannot say enough great things about this game: characters are full of personality and well thought out; game materials (we bought the prepared package) was high quality and very well organized; instructions were crisp & clear; and the mystery itself was intriguing.

Including ourselves, we had 11 players. Reading the reviews, I was worried about the Sherlock rating of this game, but we had 4 players that nailed every part of the solution (place, weapon, room and motive), and several that got all but 1. Although I have no basis of comparison, 11 seemed to be a perfect number (probably anywhere between 8-12 would be) as we all had a chance to engage in fulsome conversations with each other to explore clues. Not sure how you interact with 32+ people, but a lot of hosts do it so it must work.

Leading up to the night of the party, I had a few clarifying questions and the mymysteryparty support e-mail was very responsive and helped me navigate through a few nuances.

We will definitely be purchasing another game.

6th Annual Party

We have used mymysteryparty.com for all of our murder mystery parties. This is our 6th annual and we are all so excited. We usually host about 20-25 friends but it has become such a popular party, we had to expand to 32 this time.

So excited to have this party

So much fun

I used this game for my birthday on Saturday and it was so much fun! Everyone got into and got dressed up. It was a good challenge and kept us on our toes! I loved the story as well. I wish I could play it again!

Fantastic! Terrific! Bravo!

I've done a few murder mystery parties from this company and they are by far the best. They have so many bells and whistles with their games and the mysteries are all different and fun to figure out who did it.

This game was very challenging and my group had a blast with it. The character's aren't elaborate, so big costuming isn't needed - just a few props and they were good to go.

Lots Of Fun!

We just completed our mystery game this weekend, it was a BLAST! Everyone got very into their characters and the story line. We will be doing this again.
