Who killed Jules Parker? And why did they film it?
Ben and Aria Tate are known for throwing the most over-the-top Halloween party in town. We’re talking themed cocktails, haunted house-level decorations, and costumes that look like they walked off a movie set. It’s the kind of night people talk about for months—and this year, it’s bigger than ever.
But just as the party hits its peak, the room goes dark, a video is discovered and played. It’s not part of the entertainment. It’s a recording of someone being murdered. The victim? Jules Parker—one of the guests. And the message? Sent directly to another person at the party.
Suddenly, the fake blood and jump scares don’t seem so funny. The killer is at the party, blending in with the costumed crowd. And if you want to stay alive, you and your guests are going to have to hunt a killer.

Great time! This was our second murder mystery party and it generates huge fanfare each time. The mysteries are set up to be challenging but not overly challenging and its great that everyone can participate without knowing who the killer is beforehand! This company is great to work with and is always accommodating to questions.
The best party – EVER! Shot in the Dark Mysteries made the planning so easy that we could focus on making our basement look like an 80s prom. Our theme was “Chiller Thriller” and we had a blast decorating. Every person that came said they had so much fun and wanted to host their own parties. The idea that no knows who the killer is works so well. Thanks Shot in the Dark Mysteries for providing an easy, fabulous way to have fun with friends!
I love Shot in the Dark mysteries! They made so many of our parties (birthdays, new years, just because!) extra special by getting our friends engaged in solving the crimes! They’re such a great value, and even our friends that aren’t extroverts can get into being a character and sleuthing. I also love that I am able to host and participate in the murder mystery! So much fun!!
