This virtual murder mystery dinner captures the fun and excitement of our legendary in-person dinner events. You and your team are in for a night of intrigue, mystery, murder and fun – all without leaving home. Professional actors host the entire show, guiding you and your guests through the event. This frees you up to relax and have fun, rather than worrying about running the show.
Once everyone arrives online for a virtual murder mystery party, you’ll meet four of the most outlandish and interesting characters you’ve ever seen. Clues begin popping up. Motives emerge. And then – the murder. That’s when the fun really begins. You get to question suspects, evaluate clues and put your best problem-solving skills to work. Our comedic detective will be there to guide you every step of the way.

The clients are being invited to a special event! Mrs. Claus has decided to open up Santa’s Workshop for online tours and festivities for the very top of the Nice List. Unfortunately, no sooner does the event begin, when it is discovered that one of the elves has been replaced and possibly murdered by Santa’s naughty counterpart, the shape-shifting Krampus! The teams will have to work together to unlock festive puzzles, review clues and question the suspects to see which of the assembled has been replaced by the dastardly Krampus. It could be any of the elves or even Mrs. Claus herself. The event will conclude with a special visit by a grateful Father Christmas; Santa Claus himself to announce the winning team and give prizes (if any).
