Any suggestions on a fun Murder Mystery Party Kit?
I am interested in hosting a Murder Mystery Party for my friends. I have heard about the kits that you can purchase but don't know where to start -- there are so many. Has anyone tried these? Are they fun? Can you offer a suggestion about which one? Or is there a better way to plan this type of party? Any advice would be appreiciated!
Hi,
Murder mystery games are indeed lots of fun - but as you've found out, choosing one can be quite difficult because there are so many. Here's what I would do.
The main thing to decide is how many people you want to invite. You need to do this because if you buy a kit, it will be for a specific number of people. (A lot of kits will cope with a range of guests, but even they have limits and if you have too few guests then the party won't work.)
You can also think about a theme (wild west, pirates) so that costuming is more fun.
As for planning, my main suggestion is to take your time. Don't rush it!
I've included a couple of links (below) that you might find useful.
Have a great party!
