How Murder Mystery works

What are the rules of Murder Mystery?

After a dramatic introduction, your guests will work in teams to follow clues and solve the mystery. Either complete as individuals or per table, depending on the group size.

Who is Murder Mystery for?

Murder Mystery works best with groups of 20 or more. It’s a great way to mark a memorable evening for anyone who likes drama and twists. If you have a smaller group size and think your guests would be up for it, we can set the event up so that each guest is assigned a character, complete with detailed background story and secrets.

How long does Murder Mystery last?

The mystery unfolds over a leisurely dinner – two to three hours.

How do Murder Mystery events work?

At a Murder Mystery party, guests are invited to step into a world of intrigue and suspense. They are often given a specific theme or setting, such as a 1920s speakeasy or a Victorian manor, to create an immersive atmosphere.

Murder Mystery parties provide an exciting and interactive experience, combining elements of puzzle-solving, role-playing and socialising.

Client Kudos

Our guests were delighted with the day of Highland Games, the team of maximilion was fantastic. I will recommend them 100%.

Horizons – TPG Scotland

Just a note to say thanks for all your help with the Yamaha event last week. It went very well, and the client was very happy. I know she was a bit worried just because of experiences at other venues around the world where things have not gone according to plan. So for us to arrive and see it all set and ready to roll, put her mind at rest.

Spectra

Like many other professional service providers, we are often metaphorically ‘spinning plates’ and ‘juggling’ competing priorities, so it was great for our team to try these challenges in real life. We discovered hidden talents and it reinforced that working as a team and providing a supportive learning environment are key to delivering an excellent result. Thank you to Maximillion for your support and encouragement during this fun event, as well as for your professionalism in pulling together a slick activity for 220 people.

The InterGen Summer Event 2024 was an unforgettable day! This could not have happened if it was not for the brilliant team at Maximillion. Their attention to detail, organisation skills and fantastic hosting/MC’ing on the day of the event was brilliant. Massive thank you for making our team building event the highlight of 2024.

Ross and the team at Maximillion were an absolute pleasure to work with and played a HUGE part in the success of the Phoenix Leadership UnConference 2023! From the very beginning Maximillion embraced the relaxed feel of this year’s conference and helped bring our vision to life! From a bespoke centre stage to Lego figurines, beanbag seating to branded sticky notes – everything was planned and executed to the highest of standards and myself and the wider team could not be happier! Maximillion have delivered many events for Phoenix Group, they are an extended part of the team and we honestly couldn’t deliver the events like we do without them!
