What happens at a murder mystery party?
If you hire a company to help you host a murder mystery party then they will organise for actors, in part and costume, to be at your venue and create a fake scene of a murder and post-murder investigation, in a comic way, like you might find in a Poirot tale - with a detective inspector and a host of suspicious characters. You and your guests get to interact with the characters and have fun while you and they figure out: whodunit?! If you orgainise the party yourself, it is more likely that you will ask your guests to come in character, if you buy a Murder Mystery party pack there will be lists of characters and background information for each person to give to your guests. One of your guests will be the murderer and it will be up to the rest of your party to work out which one.
Organising a murder mystery party
It does take some effort to orgainse a murder mystery party and many of the details for the guests including background information, lists of motives, costume suggestions, and important props and objects need to be sent out before the party itself. The party will be great fun however and well worth the effort - you can find murder mystery packs or games online in many online stores and online toyshops - you may also find many on online auction sites at cut prices.
