Homicide on the Homestead

Are you a murder mystery enthusiast with a flair for the dramatic? This is the event for you!

Take a trip to 1920s Prince George, and get ready for an afternoon full of intrigue and deceit. Meet shady characters with hidden motivations while embracing the razzle-dazzle of the Roaring Twenties. It's going to be the bee's knees!

The year is 1925, and wealthy businessman Ambrose Cogshall and his wife Grace are preparing to leave Prince George behind for a fresh start in Toronto.

Before departing, Cogshall has invited friends, family, employees, and more than a few enemies to a farewell garden party at Giscome Portage. However, not everybody is there to wish the host well. From the ex-wife avoiding her former spouse, to the biographer who has uncovered disturbing details about the man's past, there are plenty of guests with hidden motivations.

With old grudges, gambling debts, secret affairs, blackmail, and accusations of murder simmering beneath the polite conversation, this innocent garden party is bound to become explosive.

Mingle with your fellow guests as you get to know the characters around you, and work to uncover their secrets and motives.

If you're fond of murder mysteries, this is your time to shine! Book your spot and dress to impress as you get into character. Costumes are strongly recommended. Tickets are $60.00 per person and include appetizers and refreshments.

Event recipients will receive an official invitation, character assignment, and costume ideas once registration for the event has closed. On the event day, players will arrive in character, receive their objectives for the game, and interact with each other as they work to catch the criminal (or hide their crimes)!

Prizes are awarded for best costume, best performance, and the most money. If you correctly identify the killer you won’t leave empty handed – the same rule applies if the murderer gets away with it! No acting experience required, just a willingness to embrace your role.

PLEASE NOTE: The success of this event is dependent on the attendance of all participants - if you or your guests are unable to attend, please contact us as soon as possible. There will be no refunds, but tickets are transferable.

REGISTRATION IS NOW CLOSED.
