Apples are ripe on the trees, pumpkins are for sale, and the leaves (and bodies) are falling, which is how we know that it’s finally murder mystery season! Halloween is drawing near, and October is booking up quickly with Murder Mystery Co. experiences across the nation. Not to mention that our offices are beginning to look less like a business and more like an episode of Goosebumps. As our excitement for the season builds, we wanted to share our favorite ways that fall and mystery go together like pumpkin spice and lattes.
Fall is Made for Mystery
Something about the days getting shorter and darker make everyone lean into the spooky, mysterious, and the unknown. Maybe it’s the chill in the air that makes us crave cozy gatherings; maybe it’s the fresh smell of cinnamon pouring from coffee shops and Bath and Body Works or the fog rolling over our yards in the early morning that makes us yearn for a scary story or a caramel apple. Whatever the reason, nothing quite fits the season like being part of a mystery to solve with your friends and family.
Spirit Halloween is Already Open
Halloween is the one holiday where people expect to dress up. That makes for the perfect excuse to try out one of our 9 murder mystery party themes to transform an ordinary dinner party into a night to die for. Don your pinstripes and flappers for our 1920s themes, slap on some radical neon fishnets for the 80s show, or even get glamorous and dress like an old Hollywood actress. Whatever style you’re looking for, we have it! And yes– We do give out awards like Best Dressed and Best Suspect, so the people who really dress to impress get all the recognition they deserve.
Parties That Go Beyond Pumpkin Patches at The Pumpkin Patch
The Murder Mystery Co. can host events (almost) anywhere! From your backyard to a haunted house and even at an apple orchard, the possibilities of where you can host a killer event are endless. So, this year, yes-and your friend’s idea to go on a hay ride, and recommend adding a bit of intrigue. Even if you have an introvert in your group, our special immersive experiences give each person a choice in their participation level. Whether they want to become the center-of-attention fem fatale or they want to pretend to be a private detective hiding in the shadows, we’ve got you covered.
The Scariest Thing? Missing Out.
Our busiest time of the year starts in September for shows booking all throughout the holiday season. Right now, we are already seeing some of the biggest cities in the country booked full, so if you’re waiting to either book your private event or purchase tickets for an upcoming dinner theater show, stop waiting. Before you know it, we’ll be sold out, and we aren’t JUST saying this. It’s because it’s been happening this way for years.
Don’t Just Watch Fall Fly By– Live It.
Why sit back with popcorn when you can step into a thrilling murder mystery theater that places you directly into the plot? Murder mystery parties are interactive, fun, hilarious, and just spooky enough to make the season come alive. After all, Halloween isn’t about standing on the sidelines– it’s about participating in the fun.
