On Saturday night, Elliot and I were invited to try something a little bit different... Cholderton Rare Breeds Farm were hosting another of their popular Murder Mystery Nights and we were offered tickets to go down and give it a try!
Essentially, as the name suggests, a crime has been committed and you need to work out whodunnit. There is a back story, all of the suspects (actors) are introduced and then the rest of the evening is spent interacting with or eavesdropping on the suspects.
On our night, the story was all based around a medical clinic called Zephyr. A member of staff had been murdered and each of the characters had some sort of link to the clinic and to the victim.
They each took it in turns visiting the different tables throughout the evening and we had the opportunity to ask them any questions we had. There were also some arguments to watch between the characters and, spoiler alert, maybe a couple more deaths too.
Also scattered around the room were 5 whiteboards displaying different pieces of 'evidence' and you essentially had the whole evening to work out who did it and why…
As well as the evening of entertainment, we were also served a three-course meal! We had:
- Bruschetta
- Hog roast with salad
- Eton Mess
We had such a fun time on the night so if a Murder Mystery event is coming to a location near you, I’d definitely recommend checking it out!
Thank you Cholderton Rare Breeds Farm for the invite!
