It’s our favourite time of year and here in Canada, as soon as the Thanksgiving pumpkin pie is eaten, we turn our attention to Halloween party planning. So, let’s talk about mystery party games for Halloween 2019!
The Halloween Party Murder
Halloween Costumes Required?: It’s open – you or your guests decide what they will wear, traditional Halloween costumes will fit!
It’s a bit spookier than most of our mysteries, especially because the party guests discover that someone has been murdered by watching it all on a video left by the killer at the front door! A clean murder mystery (although slightly more graphic at the start than our usual 4/5 on the Angel Rating Scale) suitable for pretty much anyone!
The Haunted Island Murders
Our newest offering for Halloween 2019, this triple murder reminiscent of Agatha Christie’s And Then There Were None brings those involved in a tragic event 10 years ago back to Enmity Island – at the request of a dead man! This twisty plot takes your sleuthing to the next level while you figure out who is guilty of the murders!
A Vampire Murder
Halloween Costumes Required?: Traditional gothic vampire or more “Underworld” vampire style – all will work with this mystery. Bonus: Steampunk Vampire Cosplay!
This is one of our favourites for Halloween! A Vampire theme is so easy for people to costume – they can go all out or simply throw on some fangs and still be in line! A clean Halloween party murder mystery set in a gothic castle suitable for all adults!
The Phantom of the Auction House
Halloween Costumes Required?: It’s open – you or your guests decide what they will wear, traditional Halloween costumes will fit!
One of our go-to recommendations for a Halloween party murder mystery game that is open for costume theme but also clean! When someone is murdered, everyone at the auction house is suddenly a suspect in his murder. But when the victim disappears, the strange plot grows even more mysterious! It’s a clean mystery (4/5 on the Angel Rating Scale) and suitable for all!
Murder at the 1980s Prom
Halloween Costumes Required?: Eighties prom dresses and tuxes!
This mystery is one of our newest top 3 best-sellers and the 80s prom element make it perfect for a lower-key Halloween party that is less about the spookiness and more about the costumes! Come as your favourite 1980s high school movie cliche and solve a murder! It’s a 4/5 on the angel rating scale.
Murder in Wonderland
Halloween Costumes Required?: Dressing as characters from Alice in Wonderland!
There are two versions of this mystery – Murder in Wonderland and Mystery in Wonderland! Mystery in Wonderland features a hunt for the reason everyone in Wonderland has gone mad. Murder in Wonderland also has this investigation, but you’re also charged with finding who killed the Caterpillar by poisoning his hookah! A 4/5 on the Angel Rating Scale for Murder in Wonderland, and Mystery in Wonderland is a 5/5 on the Angel Rating Scale!
Murder in the 50s
Halloween Costumes Required?: 1950s era costumes like poodle skirts and greaser jackets! Think Grease meets Archie and let your imagination run wild!
It’s the night of the sock hop, but when one of the students is found murdered up at Lovers’ Lane, everyone is brought to the school gym while the killer is uncovered! A 4/5 on the Angel Rating Scale!
