This challenging mystery is filled with secret identities, sinister counterparts, hidden props, paranormal twists, shadowy motives, dangerous revelations, and murder in a dark parallel version of the world.

Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:

An indiscriminate group has received invitations to a mysterious affair called the Nevermore Gala. All anybody knows is that it will be an unforgettable bash held behind the mystifying Mirror of Daebub—an ancient relic recently purchased by one of Manhattan’s elite at an exclusive art auction. Nobody knows why, but the tycoon had second thoughts about the purchase and sold the magical mirror to an unknown buyer in the town of Nevermore, more than two thousand miles away.

You have received an invitation to this cryptic social event of the year. Will you have the nerve to step into the mirror and face what lurks behind it? This is where your story begins.

So pleased with the game!

It was my first time hosting (or attending) a murder mystery party and it worked out great! We had 16 work colleagues and most of them had not been to one of these before. I bought all the props needed ahead of time so I wasn't reliant on people remembering, but next time I would give out the roles ahead of time and have people get more familiar with their characters. Everyone (age 30-60) had a great time and we were all surprised to find out who the killer was!

Great story, lots of fun

It was all great. The material provided, the characters, the story, However... i substracted a star because as a host i should have a bit more insight of the characters without exposing details that could spoil anything. The hidden characters are a bit over the board with this story. If i would have known beforehand i would probably have chosen a different story. But all in all a great murder mystery.

Fun Evening

This is my fourth year hosting a murder mystery party. Many of my guests have been to all of the events but I also had a handful of new people who had never played before. Everyone had a great time. The only confusion my guests had with this particular game was how to dress. The pre game tasks explained what props guests should bring but did suggest how to come dressed at the party as these characters were supposed to stay somewhat hidden. Make sure to send out to each guest their pre game card as well as their character description and explain to avoid confusion. The twists involved with this game kept everyone on their toes, especially my seasoned guests and was as always a lot of fun!!

Murder Behind The Mirror

This was my first murder mystery party and it won’t be my last! I had 28 guests, this game was perfect and a lot of fun for everyone. I was hesitant to host a murder mystery but, was very surprised how many people wanted to be part of it. This game had some “pre-game” activities that are optional. My guests absolutely loved that part of the game. With a group this large the game took about 4 hours. But, time flew by. The only thing I did different then what the game recommend was the optional “bonus” games. The game reccomended pairing people up. I did two bonus games and had 2 groups of 4 compete with each other. I almost didn’t do the bonus games but, was very glad I did. Most of the guests mentioned it as a highlight of the night.
My Mystery Party was very good to work with. They answered questions promptly and even though I made mistakes in the items I purchased they worked with me in getting in corrected. I ordered the pre-printed version of the game and was very happy with it.
