How It Works
Check in, receive your character, and get quick help jumping in. (Private parties may receive roles ahead of time.)
Our host explains how objectives work, how to interact, and how play money/prizes work — then invites everyone to mingle.
Guests circulate, uncover relationships, and negotiate information through real conversation — no scripts required.
At the turning point, the victim “dies,” new info is released, and the room shifts into detective mode.
Official evidence is presented, guests vote on who committed the crime, and the solution is revealed.
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.
The charismatic owner of the resort, Coconut Joe prides himself on keeping both guests and profits flowing. With tensions rising among staff and money on the line, his decisions have put several people on edge.
Joe’s wife and business partner, Jane ensures Margaritaland’s elite guests are always satisfied — even when doing so means quietly covering up problems.
With bar profits declining and their job at risk, Bindy is desperate to shift blame and protect their position before someone replaces them.
Charming, flirtatious, and dangerously popular, Jack has made friends, and enemies, across the resort. Not everyone appreciates how much influence he’s gained.
Ambitious and sharp-eyed, Kylie is determined to trade island life for luxury, no matter who she has to manipulate to get there.
Once the resort’s golden boy, Sam has been spiraling since a recent breakup. His reliability, and judgment, are increasingly in question.
Polite, observant, and quietly well-connected, BJ hears far more than people realize and knows how valuable information can be.
Young, glamorous, and fiercely protective of her lifestyle, Candy will do whatever it takes to keep her status secure.
Unlike traditional murder mystery dinners, there are no performers on stage and no scripted scenes to watch. Every guest receives a character with secrets, objectives, and relationships — and the story unfolds through natural conversation and discovery, not cue cards.
Every guest is involved from start to finish. Whether you’re bold, analytical, or quietly observant, the game adapts to your style.
This experience is ideal for people who don’t want to “act.”
No accents. No monologues. No embarrassment. Just guided prompts that make engagement easy and comfortable.
There are no timed clue drops. Evidence emerges through::
• Private conversations
• Shared discoveries
• Strategic information trading
The mystery rewards curiosity, collaboration, and critical thinking.

You don’t need acting experience to participate. Guests receive clear character guides, objectives, and host support. Acting in character is optional. Some guests lean into roleplay, while others focus on strategy, deduction, and conversation. The experience works at any comfort level.
Our parties are designed to be intuitive and welcoming—even for first‑timers. Many competitors also offer “interactive” events, but theirs often still feature central actors to manage pace and plot. We trust the group to carry the narrative, supported by materials and structure—not scripts.
For most parties, we need a minimum of 20 participants, but can accommodate up to 100 or more, depending on venue and setup. For smaller groups, we have a selection of micro-themes that can run with as little as 8 guests.
Our mysteries are set up in a way in which roles accommodate different comfort levels. By providing clear objectives we give each guests the flexibility to take a more reserved approach or to fully-embrace their character. Guests receive clear character guides, objectives, and host support.
Characters are provided digitally or in person, depending on the event format.
If chosen, private event attendees can be emailed their characters, backstories, and goals ahead of time. Most public event participants receive assignments onsite.
Themed attire is encouraged and helps immersion but is optional. Themes range from 1920s speakeasy to supernatural seance or winery mystery—costume inspiration guides are provided to help participants prepare. Guests may dress comfortably or lean into the theme for fun.
Since we use licenses to sell tickets, we only provide a fully-hosted experience. This ensures that you receive a high-quality, immersive murder mystery event, complete with all the necessary materials, guidance, and support for a memorable experience.
