WHO KILLED SANTA?

The dining room of your chosen venue becomes the staff canteen of one of London’s top department stores. As pre-dinner drinks are served, Santa Claus himself enters the room to dispense his very special Christmas gifts to the assembled throng. Just as he is about to give a senior member of your staff a very special gift, Santa dies a slow and painful death! During dinner, store staff and your fellow diners are questioned by Inspector Cracker, as he attempts to discover who killed Santa……. and why!

We have been presenting our quality Murder Mystery packages since 1991 and believe we have the perfect event for entertaining clients, rewarding staff or simply having a great night out. Like most of our events, the Murder is researched and written around your guests and in keeping with the festive spirit of the occasion, your guests will have to help Inspector Cracker to solve the crime. Was the Christmas pudding laced with cyanide?, will the rehearsals for the Department Store Christmas cabaret be subdued affair?, or will it simply be a case of the show must go on? The winning table, which solves the crime, will be presented with fabulous goodies from under Santa’s sparkling Christmas tree. Call us now …….and make a contract killing this Christmas!!!
