Looking for a one-of-a-kind night out in New Jersey? The Murder Mystery Company brings live, interactive murder mystery dinner theater to Parsippany, where guests become part of the story while enjoying a full three-course meal. Our Parsippany shows take place at Hotel Troy on Wood Hollow Road — a destination that transports guests to the sophistication and optimism of the late 1950s and early 1960s while providing all the comforts and technology expected by today's traveler. Inspired by the refined style of the Mad Men era, the hotel combines mid-century modern architecture, warm hospitality, and personalized service to create an experience that is elegant, welcoming, and memorable. Whether you're planning a date night, a group outing, or a special celebration, a Murder Mystery Company show in Parsippany delivers one of the most memorable evenings the city has to offer. Want to bring the mystery to your own venue instead? Get in touch about a private event!
Our public murder mystery dinner theater events take place multiple times per month at Hotel Troy.
The Murder Mystery Company creates a fully interactive theater experience, where the audience becomes part of the investigation.
As soon as guests arrive at the venue, they are greeted by actors already in character and introduced to the story. Some guests may even be selected to play suspects in the mystery.
During the evening you will:
The experience is often compared to a live-action version of the game Clue, with plenty of comedy, audience participation, and surprises.
Even if you're not chosen as a suspect, every guest participates in the investigation as a detective working alongside their table team.
The themes of our shows change monthly.
Guests are encouraged to dress for the theme if they wish, though costumes are optional.
The Venue:
Rather than feeling like a typical chain hotel, Hotel Troy is designed to feel like a private club or the home of a gracious host. Guests are greeted by name, staff anticipate needs before they are expressed, and every detail—from the music and décor to the scent of the lobby and the presentation of a cocktail—has been carefully considered. The hotel's philosophy is built around the idea of "timeless hospitality." Modern luxury isn't defined by extravagance but by thoughtful service, genuine human interaction, and attention to detail. Every team member is empowered to create memorable moments that turn first-time visitors into loyal returning guests. The property's design celebrates clean architectural lines, natural wood, brass, leather, stone, and vintage-inspired artwork. Public spaces encourage conversation, relaxation, and productivity, while guest rooms offer a peaceful retreat with premium bedding, upscale amenities, and understated elegance.
Many guests attend our New Jersey murder mystery dinners for special occasions such as:
We've been a business for 35 years and we've had over 35 Christmas parties. It's always hard to find something different and I'll tell you what this was one and we should have done years ago.
These guys are complete professionals. They come in and take over and in character from the moment they come in.
Super fun! So glad we did it and we will do it again I'm sure.. kudos you guys! So happy with what you did!
