Description

Join the Texarkana Museums System for our latest Murder Mystery Dinner at the P. J. Ahern Home, 403 Laurel Street in historic downtown Texarkana, USA. It's 1955 and you've been invited to a New Year's Eve Block Party! The guest list is full of respectable neighbors, but you spy a few suspicious characters! Are they planning something illegal? Are you the victim or a suspect? Find out on Saturday, December 31, 6:00 - 8:00 p.m. Tickets are just $45 each or $40 for TMS Members or $80 for couples. Tickets are on sale now! All Tickets must be purchased in advance. THE DEADLINE TO PURCHASE TICKETS IS December 27, 2022!

How this event works:

Each guest will assume the role of a particular character.
Mystery Dinners involve a combination of improvisational acting, storytelling, and creative problem-solving. Each guest will play the part of that character throughout the course of the game. Each character has specific personality traits, goals, secrets, and information, all of which are included in the character sheet that you will receive either before the event date or when you arrive.  A big part of the fun is getting into character and taking on a new, exciting role. If you are able and interested, it adds to the fun to wear generally appropriate time period clothing, hairstyles, and accessories - but costuming is not required.

A mysterious event will occur!
At some point during the party, a "murder" will occur that will force the players to come together in order to solve a problem or unravel the mystery. 

Solve the mystery! Guests will need to use the information that their characters know (from their character sheets) as well as additional clues that are discovered during the game to solve the mystery. It's important to follow the instructions for your character. You may have the piece of information that solves the case! If at any time you need assistance in carrying out those instructions, TMS Staff is on hand to assist.
