Directions

Choose a Halloween murder mystery theme — vampires, ghosts and hauntings, monster mansion mashups, freaky asylums, or Sherlock Holmes (or another theme entirely, such as a wizarding castle, pirate ship, Western saloon, or masquerade ball).
Assemble and run the party kit, which is quick to set up and easy to run.
Guests, typically six or more, assume a game character and play through three rounds.
Players try to identify the murderer while also sleuthing into character subplots, money trouble, and hidden agendas.
Play in real life (IRL) at a dinner party or virtually online over platforms such as Zoom or Discord.
Enhance the party with a dinner menu, decorations, spooky music, sound effects, and prizes.
Add expansion packs to accommodate larger groups, expanding the game for up to 20-30 guests.
