I hosted my first party and I was scared that if anyone could fail such a flawless package it would be myself. But this kit makes it so so easy and fun. Lots of room to make it your own and not cookie cutter, but always super straight forward! I can’t wait to host another one! Thanks Night of Mystery! – Elyzabeth Wolfe

To ring in the millennium, Twilo, the most happening club in the Big Apple, is throwing the ultimate New Year’s Eve bash! Hosted by DJ Neon, this shindig is one that everyone’s been dying to get into!
As we count down to Y2K, the brightest stars of the 90s are ready to get jiggy and celebrate in style. But watch out, because amidst the neon lights and killer tunes, some are plotting to settle scores, flaunt their revenge bods, or drop some major bombshells.
Could it be the grunge rocker whose tunes are now a total buzzkill? The teen sitcom star who’s so yesterday? The hip hop star with beats faker than a Furby’s love? Or possibly the dot-com mogul who’s about to go bust?
The mystery is up and ready to roll! The Extras for the mystery are still getting their finishing touches on the design and will be available shortly!

This will depend on (a) the version of party you order and (b) what you/they want to do at the party.
Some murder mystery party game rules say (generally the smaller 6-8 guest and 8-12 guest versions) have the victim rise and become the investigator after their “death.”
Since the victim does not know who murdered them, they can still play along and try to guess the murderer using their previous background knowledge and their money in order to bribe and blackmail others and derive their secrets from one another.
If you have a larger version, and you have not assigned the investigator (they are generally listed as the first person to eliminate for this reason), then the victim will need to become the investigator.
If you have assigned the investigator, but have an extra role that is not already filled, the victim can become this person (if you order the 20-80 player version, this will always be an option).
If the victim wishes to do nothing, they can do that as well. Some guests really enjoy playing along “dead” and trying to figure out who killed them.
