Step into an immersive murder mystery shaped around a Victorian-era séance in 1898. One year after Reginald Blackwood’s death in his own home, his widow gathers people to seek the location of his missing will. The household is portrayed by a live ensemble that includes the widow, her son and heir, her daughter, the family doctor, the solicitor, the housekeeper, and a longtime friend, each guarding private motives and grudges. The evening begins with a reception that lets attendees mingle with the family, absorb the whispers circulating through the manor, and form early hunches. The séance follows, the room goes dark, and when light returns the medium is dead, throwing the house into turmoil. From that moment, the investigation is in the hands of the audience.

When a solution becomes clear, submit a written accusation naming who did it, how it was done, and why, before the final reveal. Victorian mourning attire or eveningwear is encouraged but optional, and even a single dark accessory such as gloves, a brooch, or a pocket watch helps set the tone. No roles or scripts are assigned, so expect to mingle, observe closely, and ask pointed questions. The experience runs about two and a half hours.
