Murder Mystery Dinner – A Killer Night Out (Literally!) - This was such a fun and creative experience! The Murder Mystery Dinner was themed around a haunted storyline set in New Orleans, and everyone at our table got a character to play. My family and I were “Marie Madaline Hachard and the Casket Girls,” and the room was filled with other famous New Orleanians from history. The energy was great — the actors were fantastic, the venue had that perfect mysterious NOLA charm, and to top it all off… we solved the mystery! Turns out, we were the killers. Yes, we won! The only area that could’ve been improved was the “small bites” portion. It wasn’t clear how to get them — some tables had them automatically, while others needed to order separately. Once we figured that out, the night ran smoothly. Aside form this it was a blast — something totally different, interactive, and memorable. It even took us to a part of New Orleans we hadn’t explored before, making the experience feel extra special.

Murder Mystery Theater - Wonderful experience, highly recommend! Nigel, our British host, was so kind, funny, and ensured a great experience for everyone. We got to take part as characters in the murder mystery, which included fun costumes, character scripts, and actual investigation! The whole experience was engaging and a great time for anyone!

Who Dun It - Really enjoyed how interactive the show was. The host was entertaining, engaging and funny. The mystery wasn't as simple as reading the clues asking questions and it's obvious who it was. It took some thought to get the answer and figure it out. Great experience definitely enjoyed.

Whodunnit?? - This was soooo fun! I was Shwarz the Pimp. I enjoyed playing the character and solving the murder. This was so well thought out and the people were so fun too. The crazy part is the murderer could be you and you don’t know. So you have to piece together the various clues and bits of information the other characters know to figure out whodunnit. If you are thinking about doing this experience, just do it. Be prepared to get into character and act like you are an important person in the underground scene of the 1920’s.

Great time at murder mystery - Great fun. Small group but still very interactive and enjoyable. Hard mystery to solve but was a blast hearing everyone’s guesses. Props and costumes an added bonus. Host was phenomenal. 10 out of 10 would recommend.

Confused Disappointment - There is really no rhyme or reason to the activity. It is very audience driven. The clue concept does not really make sense. The audience didn't really know what was going. It really didn’t make any sense. Awards were given at the end but even though the audience made the “show” not all main character participants received the paper awards. The props, beard in particular probably not the most sanitary. Let’s just say it was a disappointment.
