A few weeks ago, we hosted a Murder Mystery evening...the scene was set on the Trans-Siberian Express in the 1930's.
We invited 6 friends of ours and sent them a invitation with all the details of their characters that we chose for them to be for the evening. We had a Russian General, the General's wife, a Chinese Ambassador, Geisha girl (spy), old wise Chinaman, his daughter (another spy), a British Major and his secretary.
The host manual gave us tips on how to manage the evening and also menu suggestions but as we didn't like their suggestions, so we chose to serve:-
Starters:-
Smoked salmon with cream cheese with cavier on bellini'S
Main Course:-
Beef stroganoff with crunchy potatoes
Dessert:-
Apple and Toffee Crumble with custard
Between courses, we had to read extracts from each of the character guides and exchange information that was relevant at certain times of the evening.
The evening went well...glad to say that we were able to guess the murderer....lots of laughs were had by all as we all tried to speak in different accents some better than others.
We would definitely host another Murder Mystery evening!
