The secrets are priceless. The suspects are suspicious. The murderer could be anyone.
Step inside Stan Hywet’s historic Manor House for an immersive evening of mystery, intrigue, and 1920s glamour. As guests at a high-profile charity auction, you’ll mingle with eccentric donors, ambitious collectors, and mysterious characters—until an unexpected murder turns the evening upside down!
Search for clues. Interrogate suspects. Follow the evidence. Explore the Manor House and put your detective skills to the test as you work to uncover the killer before the final reveal.
But be prepared: each performance features a different ending and a different murderer. Even if you’ve attended before, you won’t know whodunit this time.
Guests are encouraged to dress in their finest Roaring Twenties attire and embrace the glamour of the evening. Your experience concludes with light refreshments, one complimentary drink, and the dramatic reveal of whodunit… if you can solve the mystery first.
