The Evidence Locker

A murder mystery party is a fun, interactive experience where guests work together to solve a fictional murder while enjoying great food, drinks and plenty of laughs. Depending on the package you choose, your guests may become part of the story themselves, or simply sit back and enjoy a professionally performed theatrical production.

Our experiences are perfect for corporate events, team building days, birthdays, anniversaries, hen parties, Christmas parties, family celebrations, hotels, restaurants, golf clubs and public venues. Whether you're entertaining 8 guests or 300, we'll help create an unforgettable event.

Only if you choose one of our Hosted Experiences. Guests are given a character and a few short pieces of script during the evening, but there's absolutely no line learning involved. Our experienced hosts guide everyone through the event, making it easy, relaxed and great fun.

For our Fully Performed Experiences and Murder Mystery Musicals, our professional actors perform the story while guests enjoy solving the mystery from their seats.

Definitely not! Keeping the mystery alive is all part of the fun. Nobody knows who the murderer is before the event, meaning everyone has the same chance of solving the crime.

Fancy dress is completely optional, but it's always encouraged if your guests enjoy getting into character! Many groups love dressing to match the theme, although it's certainly not essential for having a fantastic evening.

Most events last around two and a half to three hours and are designed to fit around a meal or refreshments. We'll work closely with your venue or caterers to ensure everything runs smoothly and the evening flows perfectly.

Yes. We regularly work with hotels, restaurants, golf clubs, conference venues, private homes and external caterers. We'll coordinate timings with your venue to ensure food service and the entertainment work seamlessly together.

We understand that plans change. If your numbers alter before the event, simply let us know as soon as possible and we'll adjust character allocations or event logistics wherever possible.
