Setting the Scene
In this murder mystery, NOTHING is keeping Regina Baxter from throwing her annual Baxter New Year’s Eve Extravaganza!
And this year the event is guaranteed to be one to remember! With Bel Air’s elite home for the holidays, a cold case becoming hot again, and the battle for the DA position heating up – the party will be nothing short of show-stopping.
As the clan of fanciful neighbors reunite there is excitement in the air… until one fateful guest falls down DEAD!!! Leaving the remaining party-goers to solve the New Year’s Eve murder mystery.
Will it be the power couple exercising one last move before they head to trial? The budding bourgeoisie on the brink of bankruptcy? Or possibly the social media socialite with so much to lose?
With scandals swirling, the guests must find the culprit before the clock strikes twelve!
Join Us to Ring in the New Year with a Night of Murder and Merriment!

No experience? No problem. Night of Mystery parties are specifically designed with first-time hosts in mind. Everything is laid out step-by-step—from invitations to party flow—so you’ll always know exactly what to do next.
Most hosts are surprised by how easy it is to run—and how quickly guests get into character and take over the fun. You can even play along as a character if you’d like! Just review the host guide ahead of time, follow the simple instructions, and then sit back and enjoy watching the mystery unfold.
Excellent Question! And one that needs more explaining, please see the “How to Play” Page of our site and/or download a preview file to get a complete understanding of how our mysteries are run!
Absolutely. We make it easy with two types of downloadable invites:
Before you purchase:
Use our RSVP invitations to invite guests and confirm your headcount (we highly recommend this step!)
After you purchase:
You’ll receive email-ready invitations that include each guest’s character description, so you can assign roles and send everything out in just a few clicks.
YES! As host, you get to decide how much or little you know about the murder.
If you want to play along, you will want to read the host’s guide in full to ensure that you are setting the game up correctly WITHOUT letting you know who the murderer is in this murder mystery party game!
In most Night of Mystery parties, the victim doesn’t sit out—they become the investigator for the second half of the game!
Since the victim doesn’t know who killed them, they can jump right back into the action—questioning suspects, gathering clues, and trying to solve their own murder.

Last night, I hosted the seventh annual Night of Mystery party, which was a resounding success. It was the largest murder mystery party I have ever organized, with 46 attendees. Guest feedback suggests this may have been the most enjoyable event yet.
