We Bring the Mystery to You
Our murder mystery experiences can be hosted at restaurants, hotels, banquet halls, corporate offices, private homes, country clubs, and event venues throughout San Diego County and Southern California.
As Seen On ABC’s
We do all kinds of private events — birthday parties, corporate events, team building, bachelorette parties, holiday parties, charity fundraisers, and more. If you can dream it, we can theme it!
Our private shows work best with groups of 20 or more guests. We can accommodate groups of all sizes — from intimate gatherings to large corporate events of several hundred people.
Almost anywhere! We can come to your home, office, a restaurant, a banquet hall, a bar — you name it. As long as there's enough space for your guests and our performers, we can make it work.
We recommend booking at least 4-6 weeks in advance to ensure availability and give us enough time to customize your show. For large events or peak dates, booking earlier is better.
Absolutely! We can incorporate names, inside jokes, company references, and more into your show. Our party planners will work with you to tailor the experience to your group.
Private shows typically run two to two and a half hours. This can be adjusted based on your event needs — just let us know when you inquire.
We provide the entertainment — you provide the food! We can work with your chosen venue or caterer to coordinate timing so the show flows seamlessly with your meal.
