Murder Mystery · Escape Room · Themed Events

The game
is afoot.

Our newest venture: planning and staging unforgettable parties.
We bring the backdrop, the props, the script, and the costumes —
you bring your guests and your sense of mischief.

Parties R Us

We turn a good party into a story your guests will be telling for years

Murder Mystery and Escape Room parties, staged at local wineries on the Central Coast. We provide the backdrop, the props, the scripts, and the invitations — everything it takes to pull your guests into another world for an evening. And because we film the whole thing, you walk away with a keepsake to share. Use your imagination: where would you like to hold a party?

The Setting

Step through the curtain

Every mystery needs its stage. We dress the room from the ground up — here, a sweep of red and gold theater drapes transforms an ordinary winery space into somewhere a story can happen. The moment your guests arrive, they’re somewhere else.

In the Details

Props that set the era

The 1920s come alive in the small things — framed portraits, a hand-cranked movie projector, a cathedral radio. We source and arrange the period detail so every corner of the room rewards a second look.

The Cathedral Radio

A classic 1930s cathedral radio anchors the table, framed by two more portraits of the age.

In Character

Dress the part

Half the fun is the costume. Guests arrive as flappers and gangsters, detectives and suspects — and we help with the styling so everyone looks like they stepped out of 1925. The more your guests commit, the better the night.

The Cast of Players

Everyone’s in on it

By the end of the night, there are no spectators — only players. Here’s the full company from a recent Murder Mystery, every one of them in character.

Case Closed

“We Caught Him!”

Every mystery has its sleuths. These two cracked the case — piecing together the clues, questioning the suspects, and naming the culprit before anyone else. The winners’ circle, glasses raised. Will your guests solve it first?

A Genuine Heirloom

The real Roaring Twenties

Among our period pieces is something truly special: an authentic 1925 cast photograph from the Duncan Sisters’ music-comedy classic Topsy & Eva, taken outside the Broadway Theatre. It comes from the collection of Dolores Shawn, a former member of the company — a real relic of the era our parties celebrate, not a reproduction.
