What would it be like to coordinate and host an evening of memorable murder mystery party game entertainment that will have your customers talking for years? Think about it. You could be the centre of attention at a unique mystery party that will wow your guests and earn you continuing kudos.
Sure, you like the idea of a murder mystery, but those do-it-yourself mystery party game kits that are available at your local department store or on internet sites just didn't offer the challenge that you were looking for.
Murder Mystery events are a unique way of getting people to interact at a birthday party, awards dinner, hen party, friends night out, a singles convention, appreciation or sales incentive reward event. Hosting a successful murder mystery party requires good organisation, professionalism, a well-crafted script and professional actors
At a Knights Templar Events murder mystery event, you and your guests are treated to the "crime of your life." Your guests become involved in an interactive series of murders. Your guests are given individual clues, obituaries, news clippings and other tangible items which will assist them in solving all the dastardly deeds, as your guests become sleuths and interrogate the colourful cast of characters performed by professional actors.
Advertise your Event With each package you will receive four A4 posters to advertise your event. Fill them in with the time, date of the event and the venue. Optional information could include an entrance fee, food and bar available, prize for the best fancy dress costume.
Handy Hints 'Don't forget to Display posters in a prominent position where your customers will see them. Decide whether you are going to offer special food and drink to reflect the theme of the event. For example our French Murder Mystery theme " Murder At The Moulin Rouge" you could supply Pernod, red and white wine, croissants, hard-boiled eggs, omelettes, croque monsieur (toasted cheese) etc. Use our room theming services to help you decorate your venue. Remember the more effort you put into the event the more enjoyable it will be for your guests.
Prizes Decide what prize/s you wish to give to the winning " Super Sleuths " who get the correct solution to the event. There may be more than one winner (so don't offer sums of money or huge prizes). We have also provided on the answer sheet spaces to write down the 3 M's: Murderer, Method and Motive, as well as the substantiating evidence, as this along with our score points system will act as a 'tie breaker' and help to eliminate those players who just guess the solution.
How to make your night a success Decorate your venue in advance using our Theme Decoration services and put up the posters to advertise the event. Sell Admission tickets in advance to ensure attendance. If you are supplying food and drink for the event, try to stay within the theme of the night, e.g. Haggis and Whisky for a Scottish Murder Mystery Night.Will will also advertise your event on our shared events page free of charge to help you sell the all important admission tickets to your customers and guarantee attendance in advance.
Fancy Dress? This adds spice to the event and you can award a prize to the best-dressed person at the event. We can also supply fancy dress and theme party novelties with our fancy dress and party planners services.
