Before they Run for the Roses, these millionaires must solve a murder to clear their names…
A favourite murder mystery party game for spring and THE murder mystery package to use for your Kentucky Derby party, Murder at the Derby puts you and your mystery party guests in “Millionaire’s Row” to watch the horse races, with an exclusive meet-and-greet with the horses ahead of time! This horse racing murder mystery party game kit has an expansion pack available that allows you to host your very own Derby races for wagering and fun, to give your guests an extra thrill after the murder mystery has been solved and the killer or killers revealed!
It’s the day of the derby, and people have come from far and wide to watch “The Most Exciting 90 Seconds In Sports”! In the end, only twenty horses take to the track at Talbott Downs, the winner leaving with money, fame and a place forever in the history books. To get tickets, one must be wealthy or know someone who is a part of society’s elite. With each step up higher in the stands, so rises the social status needed to gain entry. But even celebrities aspire to get into ‘Millionaire’s Row’, a section of viewing areas and private salons where the richest of the rich can rejoice in their wealth, drink, eat, bet on and watch the race while having their every need attended. Those with access to Millionaire’s Row were offered a unique experience this year – a chance to visit the stables to greet the jockeys and horses, and, of course, wish the horse of their choice luck before being escorted back here to Millionaire’s Row for the race. But when two bodies are found in one of the stable stalls and the horse within is discovered missing, it’s up to the elite of the elite to find the killer to avoid bringing scandal down upon themselves!

Great time! This was our second murder mystery party and it generates huge fanfare each time. The mysteries are set up to be challenging but not overly challenging and its great that everyone can participate without knowing who the killer is beforehand! This company is great to work with and is always accommodating to questions.
The best party – EVER! Shot in the Dark Mysteries made the planning so easy that we could focus on making our basement look like an 80s prom. Our theme was “Chiller Thriller” and we had a blast decorating. Every person that came said they had so much fun and wanted to host their own parties. The idea that no knows who the killer is works so well. Thanks Shot in the Dark Mysteries for providing an easy, fabulous way to have fun with friends!
I love Shot in the Dark mysteries! They made so many of our parties (birthdays, new years, just because!) extra special by getting our friends engaged in solving the crimes! They’re such a great value, and even our friends that aren’t extroverts can get into being a character and sleuthing. I also love that I am able to host and participate in the murder mystery! So much fun!!
