Death in the Diner | An interactive murder mystery event
20 – 21 May 2022 | Mungo’s
Knickerbocker Gloria’s is the gaudiest American themed diner in town, known for their milkshakes, roller skates and cheap chips. There was nothing unusual about the hustle and bustle of the evening crowd until a piercing scream of “murder” rippled through the diner. The body found stabbed, bloody and covered in sprinkles, Gloria’s murderer can’t have gotten far… But can your team deduce what led to the Death in the Diner?
In this interactive murder mystery event, your team will interview the murder’s suspects, examine the evidence, and try to avoid the sneaky red herrings. Put your sleuthing skills to the test and work together to catch the killer.
