delvin murder mysteries A Weekend to Die for! for groups with and without accommodation Delvin Health Retreat is running Murder Mystery Dinners for six overnight guests that are so popular, people are dying to get in! Guests dress up, changing their appearance and character, and have fantastic fun. The package includes the game, three-course dinner, accommodation and breakfast. However, read on if you have a larger group or don't want accommodation.
- The Birthday celebrates the very rich Great Aunt Jamesina’s 80th birthday with her not so loving relatives. It proves to be her last!
- The Wedding: The marriage between a handsome groom and beautiful bride turns out to be a wedding from Hell.
- The Funeral: A lighthearted look at the typical fight over the deceased's will involving espionage and multicultural characters.
- Robin Hood: The scene is set for a confrontation between Robin and his merry men and the Sheriff of Nottingham, Prince John and their cronies.
Dinner
Dinner is three courses with hors-d’oeuvres served beforehand. The menu is fixed, but you can negotiate changes to it ahead of time if you desire (e.g. vegetarians). Two different main courses are served, and these can be swapped around according to individual tastes. The game finishes with tea or coffee, and the solution is revealed after you have all had a chance to guess whodunnit and vote on who you thought was the best dressed and the best actor.
Games without accommodation and general conditions
- We can do up to 40 people at nearby Restaurants or even arrange a private venue if your booking is large enough. I might also travel to you and run the game at a venue of your choice or private home. Otherwise the restaurants I use are a few minutes' walk from Delvin and they all serve delicious meals and have great atmosphere.
- If you have more than six people that would like to stay overnight we will help arrange more accommodation within walking distance for you. Prices for accommodation in other establishments will vary.
- Check in time for house guests is 1 pm and the murder mystery starts at 7 pm. Your host, Michael Shane will be there for you throughout the game. Once your booking is confirmed, character outlines are sent to you so you can allocate the parts amongst yourselves and organise costumes. A more detailed but still easy-to-follow script will be given to you on the night. Acting skills are not necessary as the accent is on simply having fun.
