{image via worldwide fred} You’ll want to send out your murder mystery party invitations a few weeks in advance so guests can prepare for their role. You’ll want to assign each guest a character before they arrive so they can show up in costume. As the party guests arrive, make a brief introduction as to how the game works but you’ll want to advise that thereafter, everyone stay in character. This will make the game more fun!
You can purchase murder mystery game kits that make it very easy to throw murder mystery parties. You can also create your own. Unleash your inner mystery writer and create your own scenario of villains and victims. Most murder mystery games have rounds and during each round, each player is given 2 clues, one to reveal an one to conceal. If you allow an hour per round, it’s good to have about 3 or 4 rounds. They players can reveal there clue to whom they like. The concealed clue is one that they will try to spin or avoid talking about but if asked, they can’t lie. After all the rounds are complete, you’ll gather your guests and let each player announce who they think did it and why. Have a prize for the player who guesses correctly!
