How to Make Your Own Murder Mystery Game
For a Successful Murder Mystery Party: First, Set the Scene
The best murder mystery parties kits will include helpful tips and advice for decorating your room to create the right setting and atmosphere, tips on costumes and props and tips on what menu to serve at your mystery party to match the theme of your chosen mystery party game. A good party game supplier will have provided detailed tips which are specific to the party kit.
A little bit of thought into creating the right atmosphere with the decoration, food, background music and costume will help you and your guests to really get into character. And most of the time these props and costumes will not cost you very much as you may be able to make them using items that you have already around your home. This is not only a great way to recycle but it also makes it more satisfying that you are putting a personal touch to the preparation for your party.
For More Ideas Have a Look at the Forums
When choosing a murder mystery party game, look out for suppliers that have:
- Contact details
- Customer feedback or testimonials shown on the website
- Also useful is stories and photos from previous customers
- And even better: Forums on the suppliers site are also a good way to see how easy their previous customers found their mystery party game. Forums are also a good way to pick up info on how others have added personal touches to enhance their experience of the game.
These are a great source of info and a good way to find some great additional tips as well as a good way to see photos of costumes and décor.
It is always useful to see how different people have used the same product. With these forums and customer ideas as well as the advice in the party kit itself, you can adapt them to make it a party to suit you and your guest's tastes and requirements.
Give Your Guests Time to Prepare
The party kit you’ve downloaded will give you details on what and when to send out the information to your guests. Your guests will want to prepare for their own character; read the character’s background and make or buy their costume. So make sure you give your guests plenty of time to get ready for your murder mystery party.
Keep It to Yourself!
Each guest will know different facts or secrets depending on their character. But to keep the mystery it is important not to discuss the details with the others, so try to gently impress on your guests that they should keep it to themselves until the party and then they can let their character out and play him or her to the max!
Relax and Enjoy
It's party time and now is the time for sharing. But you don’t need to be a great actor, just chat to each other, ask questions, collect and share information. Each character will have been briefed on their tasks for the evening so everyone will already have an idea of the questions they need to get info for. So relax, get chatting to the other characters and mingle!
