How It Works

How This Murder Mystery Works

  1. Arrive & Get Your Role

    Check in, receive your character, and get quick help jumping in. (Private parties may receive roles ahead of time.)

  2. Kickoff & Objectives

    Our host explains how objectives work, how to interact, and how play money/prizes work — then invites everyone to mingle.

  3. Mingle, Trade Secrets, Build Motives

    Guests circulate, uncover relationships, and negotiate information through real conversation — no scripts required.

  4. The Murder & Investigation Begins

    At the turning point, the victim “dies,” new info is released, and the room shifts into detective mode.

  5. Evidence, Voting, Reveal & Prizes

    Official evidence is presented, guests vote on who committed the crime, and the solution is revealed.

Who Will You Be Playing?

In a Baker Street Mystery murder mystery party, there are no actors—you and your guests take on the roles of suspects, sleuths, and secret-keepers. Each person receives a unique character with a backstory, hidden objectives, and relationships to uncover throughout the evening. Whether you’re the psychic leading the séance or the maid with something to hide, everyone plays a vital role in solving the case. Here are a few of the characters in the story.
