Murder Mystery Party Games… and all that jazz!
“True Investigation” Mingle Mysteries, direct from the company that changed the murder mystery game industry!
Are you looking for an easy, hassle-free murder mystery investigation game to suit your unique party? You’ve come to the right place! Our mysteries create an actual investigation at your party, no silly stunts or ridiculous lines, just straight-up sleuthing to find who had the motive, means and opportunity to commit the murder or theft. Your guests will be questioning one another, not breaking their backs in a limbo contest, and instead of bobbing for apples or performing the Running Man, they will be proving just how clever they are.
Why Choose Shot In The Dark Mysteries?
The Original Mingle Mystery Investigation
No scripts, rounds or silly stunts; a genuine investigation that gets your guests sleuthing as a detective would, searching for the person who had the motive, means and opportunity to commit the murder.
The Host Can Be A Suspect
We hosts work hard to throw parties, and we believe that you, as the host, should be able to take on a suspect role if you choose and solve the mystery as well. You should get to have just as much fun as your guests!
The Best Customer Service
This is not just some hobby we do in our spare time. Mystery parties are ALL we do – we eat, sleep and breathe this company, and we pride ourselves on being here to serve our clients worldwide through email and live chat.
Great story. Everyone got SO into their characters and we had tons of great feedback.
Definitely have to do another one.
Jennifer
It really was a blast!
We are still going back and forth in text messages today about how much fun we had together.
Samantha
So helpful! I was very excited to find your site as birthday parties genuinely make me want to weep.
Whereas these are so vast and varied and fun!
Jodie
We transformed a local bar into The Half Moon Club and hosted an event for over 50 people!
It was the bees knees doll! Thanks for making this awesome event possible.
Christine
Another great party in the books! Thanks again!
Lisa Marie
I am planning my 7th annual murder mystery party.
All have been yours!
Meaghan, A LOT of SHOT mysteries!
It was hysterical, [the guests] all ended up in a big accusation group accusing each other of what they knew!
It was like that scene in every murder mystery show!
Duncan
We had a great time, an even better time than any of us thought we were doing this.
We will definitely be doing it again!
Kristi
The teachers went to the dollar store for crowns and feathers and what not.
We also have them awards at the end like Oscars and took their photos.
Alice
We had a great time in OZ tonight!
Thank you for another great party!
Kristi
