The Story

The year is 1988, and the Forest Park Hotel is hosting the annual ‘Brockenhurst Business Awards’. The competition for this year’s ‘Businessperson of the Year’ is fierce, with rivalries running high and secrets simmering beneath the surface. As the champagne flows and the awards are announced, a shocking murder takes place.

Everyone is a suspect, and every motive is a possibility. Was it the jealous competitor, the scorned lover, or the disgruntled employee? With an array of flamboyant characters and hidden agendas, it’s up to you and your table to piece together the clues, expose the lies, and bring the killer to justice.

How Our Events Work

Ready for a truly unique event? We specialize in crafting unforgettable experiences.

Here’s what you can expect when you book with us:

You Become a Character

Before the event kicks off, each of your guests gets a detailed character brief. This includes their backstory, motivations, and even a few secrets. You’ll be assigned a role that perfectly suits your personality, or perhaps one that encourages you to step outside your comfort zone!

The Plot Thickens Over Dinner

As you enjoy your meal, the drama unfolds. Clues are revealed, accusations fly, and red herrings abound. You’ll need all your wit and cunning to interrogate other “suspects,” uncover hidden motives, and piece together the puzzle.

Work Together (or Against Each Other!)

While everyone’s busy trying to solve the crime, each character has their own objectives and secrets to protect. This creates a dynamic and engaging atmosphere where alliances can form and crumble, adding layers of intrigue to your evening.

Unmask the Killer

By the end of the night, with all the evidence laid bare, your group will collectively (or individually!) deduce who the culprit is. The reveal is always a highlight, bringing a satisfying conclusion to your immersive adventure!

Terms & Conditions

All tickets for the events are non-refundable and any cancellations will charged full price. Transfers are possible if notice is not given before 30 days of the upcoming event.
