Murder Mystery Evening
'TWAS THE NIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS'
Join us on Saturday 12th December 2026 for a dining experience like no other!
Murder 57, the UKs leading Murder Mystery entertainment company, are staging a whodunnit dinner here at Hollin House. The theme: ‘Twas the night before Christmas’
‘It is Christmas Eve 1987. You are part of Smartoys staff Christmas party. This year, Fiona Smartly-Price (Smartoys’ CEO) has extra cause to celebrate because the company have achieved having the Christmas number one toy in the shops. Mouseville Friends is that toy, and was the brainchild of Siobhan (Fiona’s daughter and managing director
of the company). She launched the toy along with her fiancé Noel Thurst, who is a television executive that has produced an animated series based on the toy characters. This has just completed its first series run on CBBC.
Will the celebrations continue all night long or will sinister happenings put a halt to them?’
Guests will be encouraged to study clues, interrogate suspects and discover who is lying…and who is lying dead!
Do you have what it takes to discover the truth?
