Murder Mystery Party

Murder Mystery Party Headquarters creates downloadable murder mystery game kits designed to turn dinner parties and group gatherings into lively, immersive whodunits. Its themes move beyond traditional manor-house settings, placing guests in unusual worlds such as a retirement home, a biker rally, a rodeo, SantaCon, and an ’80s aerobics class. Each mystery features original characters, motives, and storylines intended to get everyone involved.

The digital kits provide the materials hosts need to run an event, including host instructions, invitations, character profiles and role-specific materials, key-character speeches, evidence, voting cards, a final reveal, and award certificates. Guests receive identities and character cues, investigate by questioning one another and sharing information, then make accusations and vote before the solution is revealed. Hosts can also play a character, provided they avoid reading the final speeches and reveal in advance.

Most games are offered for 12, 20, or 30 players, with larger editions adding characters and interactions while retaining the central mystery. The game itself typically takes about two to three hours.
