Psychological-Horror Murder Mystery Party Game Synopsis:

In the quiet, fog-covered town of Noxhelm, an unassuming neighborhood known as Misty Oaks surrounds a house with an unspeakable past. Built during the 1920s on an ancient burial ground by the notorious Butcher of Noxhelm, Ripper House has allegedly claimed more than one hundred lives. Some of the victims are rumored to remain buried within the crawl spaces beneath the estate.

Visitors have reported flickering lights, slamming doors, unexplained noises, and other paranormal activity. Historical records warn that anyone who owns the property will be cursed with doom, despair, death, and destruction.

Ben and Brenda Biggs, along with their teenage daughter Merry, are the newest residents of 203 Moorgate Street. Unaware of the full extent of their home’s macabre history, the Biggs family has invited the residents of Misty Oaks to a housewarming party. The guests will include suspicious neighbors, former owners of Ripper House, town officials, law-enforcement officers, students, professionals, and residents with complicated histories of their own. Old grudges, family conflicts, criminal connections, concealed motives, and disturbing secrets have created tension throughout Noxhelm, but hopefully, this won't affect anyone's spirits at the party.

You have received an invitation to Ripper House. This is where your story begins.

The Mystery Continues Beyond the Party

Discover the award-winning novel that inspired the game!

Journey deeper into the history of Ripper House in The Noxhelm Murders, a YA psychological horror and mystery novel by Dr. Bon Blossman. The book makes a haunting prize for the winner of your game, a memorable gift for the host, or the perfect next chapter for guests who survive the party and want more.
