A chilling psychological-horror murder mystery party game. This dark housewarming mystery is packed with eccentric Noxhelm residents, sinister neighborhood history, paranormal activity, buried grudges, disturbing secrets, suspicious relationships, shocking twists, two victims, and murder inside the infamous Ripper House.

This game is inspired by the award-winning young adult horror-mystery novel The Noxhelm Murders by Dr. Bon Blossman.

You will receive a ghost whisper track mp3 that you can play during the party. You'll also receive a graphic showing the amplitude & locations of the sound waves on the track, revealing where the whispers are so you can test the volume in advance. 

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

Enter the award-winning world of Ripper House.

Journey deeper into Noxhelm with the young adult psychological-horror mystery that inspired the game. The novel follows seventeen-year-old Shana Murphy as murder, family secrets, and supernatural terror trap her inside the infamous Ripper House.

The Noxhelm Murders makes a haunting game prize, a memorable host gift, or the perfect next chapter for guests who survive the party and still want more. You may also request an author-signed copy in the order notes.
