Kick things off with a casual happy hour at Grand Central, then team up for a murder mystery scavenger hunt. No experience is needed. On arrival, participants without a team are grouped, and many people attend solo. Each team receives a set of clues and has 75 minutes to investigate what happened to Mary within the station. Earn points as you solve challenges, and the team with the highest score wins. There is time to socialize before and after the hunt, with a chance to share stories from the search. The storyline follows Mary, a well-known presence in New York’s social scene whose life ended at Grand Central, and participants help piece together the case while exploring the landmark from fresh perspectives. If you have taken part in previous Grand Central hunts, this edition offers a completely new experience.
