ABOUT
​WANTED:
​One daring group of lively people to catch a killer on the loose. While following clues and red herrings they will be participating in a hilarious murder mystery.
Fun guaranteed!
I started the first original Murder Mystery dinner company in South Africa in the late 1990s where the game and scripts were exclusively written for a South African audience. I was a journalist armed with a pen, a sense of humour and a love for murder mysteries. Today I am in working in the UK, with an itch to write more murder mystery themes using our distinctive SA humour.
​
I believe thousands of ex-South Africans must live elsewhere for many different reasons. What a brilliant idea to host your murder mystery party and soak up the nostalgia of SA with some friends.
​
I send you the instructions online (in an encoded folder) and you follow the instructions and prepare to be thrilled ... to death.
​
Your guests play the part of typical South African characters and - surprise surprise one of them is a murderer. But hey this is South Africa and a murder docket can go missing and witnesses can "disappear" so you have to be sharp to catch the tsotsis.
​
This is a lekker opportunity to lighten up and have a laugh! You get the chance to find a murderer in your midst. You can be a baddie or a goodie in these uniquely South African themes. If you manage to outwit the murderer you can get your own back – even if it’s only with a water pistol. In this game everyone is a suspect, there are lots of red herrings and lots of tricky twists in the tale.
All characters, settings and plots are entirely South African and the most important ingredient is – lots of fun!
​
Our themes are a little bit spicy, a little bit sexy, and a little bit spooky and very complicated – you are going to have to bliksem the suspects to get them to confess (Well that’s optional).
Stereotypes, oddballs and dodgy next-door neighbours are all the characters we use to give the game an edge of authenticity, our characters are a combination of the bizarre and the believable.
You could be acting like a Chatsworth wannabe Bollywood drag queen, or a breeker - wearing your veldskoens and acting aggro like the town rugby hero or being dodgy like the local dagga dealer. It doesn't matter which theme you choose you cannot lose – laughs are guaranteed.
Everyone gets to guess WHODUNNIT and if your little grey cells in the brain are in working order you may get a prize. This is sheer fun and escapism – EISH it’s entertainment to die for!
