I've always wanted to do one of those Murder Mystery parties, but the ones you see at game stores seem a bit... well, tacky. Recently, I came across M3, Murder Mystery Maniacs. There are a ton of murder mysteries to choose from. First, you can pick from Corporate Murder Mystery Events to Murder Mystery Parties to Teen Murder Mystery Parties. From there the options are plenty. Under the Murder Mystery Parties you will find 1920's Mobster Mystery, The Halloween Horror, The Bad Santa, a Murder in Malibu, Murder at Midnight (for New Years), Man Overboard, The American Icon (based off American Idol), and The Office (based off the TV show characters) just to name a few. Who would play Dwight from The Office at your party?
The Murder In Malibu sounds like loads of fun.
"You are going to Jay Leno’s posh mansion in Hollywood for his annual Guest Appreciation Party. Everyone in attendance has either been a guest on show... A scream rang out. Jay Leno was found collapsed in the wine cellar and pronounced dead from a gun shot wound. One of you is the killer and the rest of you need to find out who it is. When you have found someone with a motive, a gun, and who was near the wine cellar this evening, then you may have discovered the true killer. "
You may invite 10-50 people to this party. Here are a few examples of the Actors that might be invited.
RICHARD SIMMONS - the famous exercise enthusiast. Come dressed in x-small red andwhite striped shorts, with a red tank top. Don’t forget your sweat band and pearly white Reeboks. (OMG, I already know who I would send this invite to and have them come as Richard Simmons! What a riot.)
JACK NICHOLSON – the famous actor. You are on fire after the hit, The Shining. Come
dressed in khaki pants & Tommy Bahama Shirt. Don’t forget your shades and Cheshire grin.
MICK JAGGER – the famous Rolling Stones singer. You should come and dress like the
#1 rocker you are. Tattoos, sleeveless t-shirts, and bandanas make nice accessories!
MADONNA – the famous pop-star. Come dressed in either clothing reminiscent of the
eighties or go for Madonna’s current look, which tends to be a track suit of some kind. Aviator
sunglasses would be a nice touch.
MARTHA STEWART – the famous talk-show host. Come dressed in a sweater poncho
and your nicest pair of khakis. A button stating INMATE OF THE YEAR would be a nice addition.
The M3 website contains a ton of information about invitations, how to run the party, what to read to guests, props, what a party might look like. Once you click on a party, click View Online Sample on the left. A document will pop up with all the informaiton you'll need to know for that party.
For your next party, try the Murder Mystery Maniacs and see how zany and fun it really is!
