With the January mayoral election fast approaching, longtime mayor Ed Hanson is set to make his final public appearance of the year — dressed as Santa Claus, no less — at Eva Alpha’s famous Christmas party. But when “Santa” is found strangled with a string of festive lights, one thing becomes very clear: this holiday gathering just became a crime scene.
The guest list? Packed with people who had a bone to pick with the mayor.
Now it’s up to your party guests to sleuth their way through peppermint cocktails, political secrets, and Christmas chaos to uncover who had the motive, means and opportunity to kill Santa!

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!!
