Murder at Devonshire Manor: Murder Mystery Night

🔪 Murder at Devonshire Manor  --- A Halloween Murder Mystery at Eagles Landing Winery

 Welcome to Pinehorn — a small town where everybody knows everybody, old grudges run deep, and secrets have a way of making their way around town.

Just outside Pinehorn sits Devonshire Manor, a grand 18th-century mansion that once belonged to the wealthy Devonshire family. For generations, the Devonshires owned more than half the businesses in town and were treated like royalty by Pinehorn's residents.

But after the last Devonshire family members died in the early 1900s, the manor was abandoned. The once-beautiful grounds have become overgrown, the house has fallen into disrepair, and a persistent local legend claims the Devonshires never really left.

Now, Pinehorn's mayor has a plan: restore Devonshire Manor and turn it into a historic bed-and-breakfast that could bring visitors—and much-needed money—to the little town.

Not everyone is thrilled.

Some residents believe the old mansion should be restored. Others think the supposedly haunted property should be left exactly as it is. Add in old family rivalries, business disputes, long-held grudges and secrets that some people would do just about anything to keep hidden...

The mayor has invited the people of Pinehorn to a fundraising gala inside Devonshire Manor to kick off the restoration effort.

And then someone is murdered.

Your evening is about to become much more interesting - and entertaining!

YOU ARE PART OF THE STORY

This murder mystery is highly interactive. Every guest will be assigned a character to play. Guests will be grouped with other participants into player groups of 7, 8, or 9 players, and each character will have their own background, secrets and information.

You'll interact with the other players, ask questions, share clues, uncover secrets and try to figure out who dunit—and why.

Characters will be assigned during the week of the event, so you'll have time to learn about your role before you arrive. Costumes are recommended! Come dressed for a spooky night at an old mansion—or simply come ready to get into character and have some fun.
