Murder Mystery Events

Take part in a CluedUp murder mystery and find yourself interviewing suspects, sifting through evidence, and analysing a crime scene. 

Choose from our selection of popular - and portable - murder mystery themes or let our creative team design an event just for you.

The Final Whistle

'The Final Whistle' event logo

The final whistle has been blown on leading rugby referee Jeff Devine - and it's clear that his death involved a serious infringment and true 'foul-play'. With four suspects being held for questioning, speculation on who killed Jeff Devine is getting out of hand. Was it first class referee Terry Fraser? Greta Hansel the physiotherapist? Crazed fan Dickie Armstrong? Or Jamie West, up and coming rising star? Their alibis appear as solid as a front row, but can you exploit the weakness in their defensive line?

Features and Benefits

A murder mystery event with a total rugby theme! Can take place before, during or after a meal.

A Killer View

Sandy Johanson is the head farmer at Boomrock. For Sandy, its the best place in New Zealand to work. Located in the hills north of Wellington with spectacular views of Cook Strait and the South Island, Sandy lives and breathes the place....well he did, until he was murdered in cold blood. Detective Nooey is called in to solve the murder, after all it took place on his patch. He's apprehended 4 suspects - a paua poacher, a local salesman, the landscape gardener and the junior farm hand. Each has a motive for murder but an alibi as solid as Boomrock itself. Work with Detective Nooey and bring justice to this rural wonderland.

Boiling Point

'Boiling Point' event logo

Starting up a catering business named "Food To Die For" seemed like a good idea to Jonty Dough. He trained under the late great Jean-Luc Mangez and has hired the best chefs, as well as keen and eager support staff.  

Let Jonty and his team provide great food, wine and hospitality, until the intricate web of lies and deceit sees the evening spin out of control. Did someone reach their own personal boiling point or was it simply a true culinary disaster?

Features and Benefits

Designed to take place during a meal. This event is totally portable and can be staged in any venue.

Duration

2 to 3 hours
