Virtual Whodunit - Real time fun

What is a virtual Murder Mystery?

Imagine Agatha Christie meets Cluedo & touch of Knives Out. You are the player in a world of mystery and intrigue. Guests receive a ‘pre-murder pack’ which includes a personalised plot outline, a video/audio message from a costumed character, plot & character information, a virtual backdrop & a Zoom / Teams invite. No special equipment or props are needed. Our lively hosts ensure your party stays on track & make it fun and energised. Safe fun & different entertainment.

Our shows are made up of very carefully constructed scripts. This means we pack them full of twists, turns and lots of jokes, puns and one liners and nothing is left to chance. We are deadly serious about comedy.
